Let the 3rd trimester begin!

As Christmas break comes to an end, we look forward to beginning the 3rd quarter of school as well as the 3rd trimester of this pregnancy. Our break was full of snow, snow and more snow! I love the picture below of Leif keeping his sense of humor with all the plowing and shoveling he had to do!

You know you have a lot of snow when even the snow starts to pile on itself in weird formations.

Today marks the start of the 3rd trimester - I'm 28 weeks today!

I must say, yet again, I can't believe how fast this pregnancy is going by. Seems like I was just thinking about making it to Christmas and then I would only have a quarter left of school before maternity leave. Well, here we are on the eve of returning back to school after Christmas break and I'm freaking out a little with all the school tasks I need to complete in the next 9 weeks!

One thing that is comforting is watching how Leinna would take care of her babies. She is going to be such a great big sister. I'm sure we'll have our moments of her wanting Momma and I will be busy with 'Nugget'. However, if she is half as caring to her new brother/sister as she is to her baby dolls, then I'm going to have a wonderful little helper on my hands.

Here we have all the baby dolls lined up and Leinna is saying, "Nyum, Nyum, Nyum" as she pretends to feed each baby. She went right down the line making sure each baby had a chance to have some "Nyum, Nyum".

Don't forget to give your babies a drink!

So precious - I love watching her "love" her babies.
