He's So Active!

And no, for once, they aren't talking about Aiden:) I am getting kind of nervous as baby #2 is going to make an appearance around early December and wondering how in the world are we going to handle our two little boys? I went in for a ultrasound today for our new doctor so they could get their own records on our little bug and both ultrasound technicians commented, "Oh, isn't he an active one?" as the little one squirmed and kicked and moved all around! At the same time, Aiden is wandering all around the exam room with full force and energy. I told Chris that this baby is WAY more active than Aiden was in the womb and they have confirmed my fear! Anyways, everything seems to be looking good for baby #2...they estimated that he weighed about 5 pounds right now, he is head down, and he was as cute as can be!
We have had a busy day so far and it's only 3:15! Aiden was up before 6 am (for the 3rd day in a row) which means snuggling and Barney in bed until 7 am when we drag ourselves out for the day. This waking up is not easy for a pregnant mama who is up ALL night long:) Aiden and I quickly got ready to head to Lowe's to TRY and fix our broken toilet. I spent an hour last night researching our one piece toilet on ways to fix it after Chris' first major attempt failed after realizing that this toilet is really special, and not in a good way. I am hoping we can get it fixed before Chris tries to put in a whole new one-this just scares me! After our quick trip to Lowe's, we walked dogs and picked up Chris back at home before our doctor's appointment.
After our doctor's appointment, I took Chris into Jersey City to give him a shortened commute to NYC so he could get to work quicker. This led to Aiden getting an hour nap in the car which means NO NAP this afternoon!!!! So instead of eating our usually healthy lunch, I treated Aiden to a happy meal with sweet tea and we are now anxiously awaiting the movers to pick up all the leftover boxes (they were supposed to be here an hour ago)!
At this moment, Aiden is pretending to cook in the kitchen. There is a coffee filter in the coffee pot and he is stirring marshmallows in a pan on the floor. There are toys strewn all over the house, laundry needs to be folded, the house needs to be clean, a bed needs to be constructed, the lawn needs to be watered...and it all might just have to wait until tomorrow because this mommy needs some REST before the real commotion begins!!!!
