1. So... here is the latest shot of little M. I scored another ultrasound last week. I had a little scare I won't get into too much on here, but I am measuring 27 weeks and am at 34. There was a slight cause for alarm, and though I "look normal" in person, (read: HEFFER) I am measuring small. My first inkling was not to worry, I did that with Emerson, but the doc said I was a good bit behind. As it turns out, blessings continue to be lavished upon us, as baby mills 3 is measuring right on schedule and in the fiftieth percentile with every other growing baby at his/her stage in the world. For the FIRST TIME (I am shamefully admitting) in my pregnancy, I can honestly say this strangely familiar emotion of immense thankfulness and actual excitement at the idea of having another newborn came over me after I was finished crying on the ultrasound table. (yes, I am hormonal and yes that is totally dramatic.) Thankfully God is working on my heart, and getting me ready to take care of a third...cause let's face it-it IS the hardest job EVER and I am TOTALLY terrified!!! Enough ranting...Here's the latest shot. We are nearing the end and are actually getting excited. Let's just hope Jamin makes it. ;)

2. I cannot share the third without sharing my second because you will see it in the pictures...(I have to do things in odd numbers, unless they are symmetrical-I'm totally OCD) We have somewhat chosen names for the baby. Let's just leave it at this...Malone will be the name of choice for either/or when it comes to babe no.3. Middle name. Yes the baby will be tortured for the rest of its life when the teacher calls out the first name first in the fifth grade, and yes, I am sharing this because I no longer care if people think it goes better with a boy or a girl-I got REALLY tired of hearing that one. Noneyabidnass. (read: unless positive, keep opinions to yourselves, please & thank you.) (Malone is my maiden name) Jamin isn't set, but he never is until d-day. Benjamin Malone if its a boy (family name) Isabella Malone if its a girl.

Yes, both of those others are popular, and yes, we went that route to balance out Malone with strong female/male common pairings. Good story. It's not Apple. We're cool.

3. Which leads me to...and I'm oh so excited...

We found this at a flea market a few months ago. A true POC (piece of crap). It ended up here...

Click here to view. I also included some images of Emmy and Aiden's rooms, just because some people have been asking and my old blog is no longer available. No I don't think anyone cares, but here ya go anyway. You should pretend and humor me...Do us all a favor and put it in lightbox mode by clicking twice until it takes you to the slideshow version. That way you get more than thumbnails.

This photo editing stuff took waaaay too long, so this will be the only blog from me this week. I'm pooped.

Love you all. Have a good week!
