I also agreed to do my niece Bailee's birthday cake...again, pretty proud of it! It was my first attempt at a layered cake and I think I did pretty darn awesome:-) Next layered one I'm planning is Kayla's for her 16th. I'm really excited about that one!

All in all, it's been a busy summer and the time is just flying by. I am really enjoying being pregnant, but I can't wait for our little bundle to arrive! We're through month five and into month six now, believe it or not and have less than 4 months left before the big day! Now I just have to finish painting my kitchen, get it refloored, paint my living room, get it recarpeted, and start re-arranging the kids' rooms and we'll be all set...lol. Baby is now the size of an eggplant, but is definitely more mobile than one. I believe she has finally learned how to flip upside down because the last two days I have finally had kicks that don't feel like they're trying to come out the bottom of my uterus! They're up near my ribs now, so I'm not sure which was better! LOL

Before I finish this blog, I do want to inform interested parties that I have decided not to return to work full time after the baby is born. I will still be doing some part time work for the office I am currently at, but it will be less than half of what I'm working now. I am looking forward to the extra time to spend raising my kids and helping with school and even believe it or not, being all domestic and cooking dinner and cleaning (I know, I know, none of you believe that....). I am nervous and aprehensive though about the drop in income and how I will manage being at home more often when I have worked full time for so long. Please keep our family in your thoughts and prayers as we embarq on this new road that we hope will be rewarding for the whole family. :-)
