Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

Three Cheers for old movies and Dick Van Dyke's skills. Chitty chitty bang bang has entertained Jacob several times over the past few weeks while we have been working on getting our basement refinished. Jacob has never been one to sit through a movie, a half hour of Superwhy is pushing it.

We get new carpet installed tomorrow and furniture this weekend so I will post a picture then. I failed to take a before photo. Think nasty forest green carpet, the smell of mildew, lots of spider webs/dead spiders, random statements such as, "This is a house of weed pot" scrawled in odd places.

So last month I gained 10 pounds. Whoa fatty! I feel huge. I didn't get this big with Jacob so this is quite interesting and I still have 6 weeks to go. I have been reading Hypnobirthing with the hope that I can relax and have this baby VBAC.

And lastly Jacob turns two this month which is exciting. He has developed needs and the ability to put phrases together so I often am told,

I need raisin bran

I need to hold you mommy (meaning I hold him)

I need Auntie Brittany (Requested at about 11 pm after he had been told to go the bed repeatedly)

. It is crazy how much children learn in such a short time.
