We have a nursery (sort of)!

We've moved things around in our apartment quite a bit in the last several months. The kids have taken the master bedroom and it is now filled with their toys and books and beds and, well, everything. We've moved our bedroom to the office space, which was much much smaller. Anyway, a result of this is that is no space for a crib or bassinet in our new room. I plan on cosleeping for a few months, but I like to have a crib handy for naps and later on. So, here is our newly transformed "nook" area. I'll try to find an old picture so you can see the difference. I'm also hoping to hang a curtain to divide the space, but it's proving difficult as the ceiling is 12-13 feet high and curtains of that length are difficult to find (impossible, actually).

*sigh*

I'm so far behind. I've been wanting to change this blog around completely over the last few months. I've been wanting to update it. Post photos, post funny things the kids say like "I want to go to the dentist" and "I need a nap" which aren't exactly funny, but who has ever heard a 2 year old say THAT? Well, apparently, I'm not so good at this whole being a parent of 2 toddlers and a preschooler and being pregnant, while also maintaining my blog. I am sorry. Really. I have been avoiding this blog as though it has swine flu and hoping that the posts would just write themselves. The kids are so busy these days. Summer is when all our friends are not in school and we have a constant stream of playdates and coffee hours with all the mommies in our building. Every morning the moms get together and decide which playground to visit or what activity to attend. The neighborhood is full of events, free concerts, sing-alongs at sunset with a view of the Statue of Liberty. Oh, and we are expecting the fourth addition to our family in early October. Everything is going well on the pregnancy front and I'm now in the 3rd trimester. I'm just hoping that the next 3 months go by smoothly.

I've been rather slack about updating this blog. To all of my readers, I'm sorry. This pregnancy has been hard work and I find myself completely exhausted after a full day of feeding/playing/cleaning with the kids. We are having a good summer for sure. I'm working on a few posts and a new format for the blog. I hope to have them up this coming week.
