I have my van back!!!

We FINALLY got our van back last night. Wow -- I never thought I'd be so excited to drive a mini-van, but compared to our loaner, our van is like driving a sports car. Really, the other van didn't go -- there were several times I thought I was going to get hit, simply because I turned and the van just putted along. Zero to sixty in 3 minutes...wow!

Reid decided this morning that he wanted to wear big boy underpants out of the house. It was a scary thing, but I let him. And he did fine! He's only had one (maybe two, I'm not 100% sure) poopy accidents in the last 2 1/2 weeks. He is doing really really well!!! Plus, he is starting to tell me when he needs to go, which is fabulous. I'm so glad he is doing so well with the potty training...the thought of three in diapers was overwhelming!

I almost have the nursery finished. I just need 20 minutes when I can run the sweeper. The new car seats were on the floor until Jeremy installed them in our van last night, so now I can really finish it all. We still don't have names picked -- this is becoming a bit of a sore spot at our house. Some of us (I'm not naming any names) wanted to pick names months ago. And some of us wanted to wait until I was 36 weeks to pick names. And guess who still doesn't want to talk about it? Yep, "he who must not be named" is still dragging his feet. I know this kid will get named...eventually!

Hannah had a swim-a-thon as a fundraiser for her swim team this morning. She swam 83 laps and looked pretty worn out when I picked her up! Each swimmer was supposed to bring a snack item, so we made a double batch of brownies yesterday. Guess who forgot to set the brownies out? So, now I have a box of brownies sitting on the counter calling to me...it's a good thing my pants are extra stretchy!
