Family update

OK, it's been awhile since I wrote anything, and I really want to keep up with this, but it never happens... so here is what we have been up to lately.
Matt's office is finished and he is still working on getting settled into not working at home, and we miss him very much! We all cherish every minute we get with him! He's busy but we know it's for all of us that he works so hard.
E turned 4 last month and is getting so big. He is going through a fit through faze right now... but we love him in spite of it. He is a big help when he WANTS to be and he is obsesses with writing and drawing pictures. He would do it all day everyday on any piece of paper he can get his hands on. He played fall soccer and loved it! He didn't get the whole concept very well, (he was on the wrong side of the field most of the time, while the rest of the kids were far away) but he really loved it and looked forward to the games every time!
A turned 3 last week (Matt and I can't believe that our baby is 3 years old!) He is very kind and the best snuggler. He comes and gets in bed with me every morning for a little while and snuggles and goes back to sleep with me. This morning I layed there away for a long time just enjoying the moment, knowing that I won't be able to do that much after the baby comes, which could be in as little as 9 days... Andrew is so kind hearted and gives into his brother every time, but watch out if you start a physical altercation with him, he will get out his claws... which is a habit we are trying to break.
Alex (I) am almost 36 weeks prego and it seems like that is a factor in everything that I do right now. Some ladies in my neighborhood and I were doing a neighborhood preschool where we switched off who's house it was at and who was the teacher. It has been so much fun, but I am just too tired to teach anymore and so it is on hold for now. Hopefully it will be at someone elses house for December and we will see if we keep it up after that. My boys have learned so much and I have seen them grow... I really hope that we can work it out to keep going. I have been trying to get all my Christmas projects done before the baby gets here, but I have only begun, plus we need to clean out the baby's rooms so we have room for her things here. I have so much to do and so little energy to do it with... but hopefully we will be able to work together and get it all done soon.
We all had a fun Halloween and I have a few pictures, but there not on the computer right now, so I will have to post them later. I promise I am trying to keep up with the blog, but as all of you know, life happens, and there seems to be a lot of living going on over here!
