Highlights from this week… entering the last trimester of pregnancy… the beginning of Spring Break… hopefully our last snowflake for the season… another week in the life of our family.

This pregnancy has been difficult for me emotionally. Not only am I dealing with the constant battle in my mind regarding whether or not this will be our last child, but I am struggling with feeling uncomfortable with the way I look. It’s a long story that maybe I will write about in the future, but my body image is in complete shambles — so it took some serious guts to take this photo of myself. However, regardless of how I feel about my looks… I want to remember this time in my life and what it felt like to carry this special child.

The girls love doing crafts with stickers, glue, fuzzy pom poms, and anything else they can get their hands on. I just love to see them working together and Shiloh in a ponytail.

We got a little bit of snow this week. The weather has been so random and weird, but leave it to a child to enjoy it, no matter what! She immediately stuck her tongue out in hopes of catching a flake or two.

Shiloh gave herself a marker makeover about 5 minutes before we needed to leave the house. I asked her to show me her lips, and this is the face she made. You have to love it, right?

Noelle was literally jumping for joy at her dismissal on the last day before Spring Break.

We got Noelle an Osmo for her birthday. If you don’t know what it is, Google it, because it is a super cool, hands-on, educational tool that works with your iPad. She was enjoying the tangrams game.

Charlotte is exponentially more needy at bedtime than our other girls. She needs tickles, snuggles, songs, stories, beverages, and often times a few “put-backs” into her bed. She has always been this way. I keep hoping she will grow out of it, but then I would miss out on sweet things like this. I am not exactly sure what Luke was doing, but they were both giggling.
