12:11pm

Good wintery afternoon!

Well check out the little counter at the top of the blog and what does it say? It says 40 weeks pregnant today. Isn't that something?! :) We are still a party of four as of this hour. I told my littlest boy that he has until 12am to vacate. Times up, you are kicked out! Ok, maybe not that harsh, but something like that. So here is a little interesting factoid for you to ponder...

Isaac and Ali are- 2 years, 2 months, 2 weeks, and 2 days apart.

Ali and "Tres" (if he shows up before midnight) will be- 2 years, 2 months, and 2 days apart

On the 2nd day of the month, none the less.

Isn't that so cool?! It is a little bit of a "meant to be situation" (which I hate to admit to myself) if I do say so. Keep your fingers crossed for me. I will spare you the details of activity that comes along with being 40 weeks pregnant. I can confirm that he will indeed come, just on his own time. Which like I said earlier on this week, is fine with me. At least it wasn't last night when the wind and snow were doing their little dance together. I will lay low today with the fam and watch some football and fold some laundry. All else is done. Every night when I go to bed I tidy up in hopes that if I do have to leave in the middle of the night that I can be rest assured (in my anal Bree Vandecamp ways) that my house is exactly the way I want to leave it.

So, here are the pictures that I promised. You get a clothed and naked boy belly shot. Yowza!

Not too shaby, if I do say so huh?! :) Please note (pardon my moment here) the non-maternity jeans. Ok, they have stretch to them but come on. Thank you Old Navy for making us pg gals feel as though we can still remain somewhat "hot" even when we are ready to burst! If only the "striped tiger" look was in for the belly, those Victoria's Secret models ain't got nothin on me! Eat your heart out Gisele, not only are my boobs huge, I can feed a child too. Ok, that was not nice. Sorry.

So its the beginning of December already and according to "Cassy's rules" it is now legal in my rule book to listen to Christmas music, decorate and fully engulf yourself in the exausting activities of the season. The kids and I put up all of our decorations yesterday afternoon and it was so much fun. They wanted to know all about their stockings and who made them. They (Isaac) wanted to know why he wouldn't hear Santa on Christmas night when he came down the chimney. Then to his surprise did he realize that we indeed don't have a chimney. That was a toughy. I told him not to worry that people that don't have chimney's still get graced with his jollyness and that he wasn't going to miss out on anything. To which he said, as he walked away, "Well I hope that he remembers to take his shoes off because we don't wear shoes in this house." Oh my, what have I created?! At any rate all that he says he wants for Christmas is a dirt bike. Hmm... I have nothing to say. Ali on the other hand, I still have another good year to have to impress. Thank goodness the littlest one will only be a couple of weeks old. Jeb and I were talking over our coffee this morning and we did the math that when we are 40 we will have a 15, 13, and 11 year old. We both agreed that Christmas will be a little more on the expensive side then. But a blast none the less. We may have made some tentative plans for a cruise that year for Christmas. :)

Thats all Ive got for now. Hopefully I will be posting pictures of the boy before I post another boring update on my mondoness! Cheers to the holiday season, cheers to you all.

My love, all my love,

Cassy & the boy
