It's in the water...

I know it's been a while since I've blogged. Forgive me. We've been super busy in the Yeager household.

What's in the water?!...
Recently I've found out that several of my friends are expecting. A couple of them remain hush hush which is totally understandable but, I'm glad they trusted to share it with me! I literally know 15 people pregnant right now. HUGE baby boom! I was having a conversation with my hairdresser about how our holidays, specifically New Year's, are going to be changing drastically. Adam and I aren't huge party people. I love to dance but as far as staying up until 3AM isn't really our cup of tea. We made New Year's our once-a-year time to go out with our friends. Every year it ends up being terrible (I will make an exception for 2012! Dancing in the living room at our friend Scott's house was a blast!) and we end up regretting going to nasty bars. I told my hair dresser I can totally picture this year... Friends over, good food, cute babies, sending everyone home at 10, and watching the ball drop from bed! I'm so excited for this new step in our lives. We never thought we'd be ready for it but knowing we are bringing a precious gift from God in to this world makes us so excited, plus, we get to share it with so many other friends!


Preparing for baby..
I've been quite OCD lately. I'm trying to organize our house for this baby and for our trip to the beach. We are so lucky to have some close friends watch our house and our first baby while we are vacationing before Hudson gets here or I'd be a nervous wreck. When it comes to organizing, I'm the opposite of hoarder. I've been known to throw too much away. Every time we go to Adams moms house it baffles me to see stuff he's had since he was in grade school still out in his room. If something doesn't serve a purpose anymore, I throw it away. I can't stand clutter or something not having a "place" in our house. I just recently organized our extremely small bathroom. I got these cute baskets to put on the shelves in our bathroom closet so everything has a place. We've also been trying to prepare Cooper for the arrival of baby. We talk to him about Hudson on a daily basis. Cooper is also getting a fence in our backyard (he will be so excited!). No, I'm not just going to toss him out there every day and forget about him. This is simply to make my life easier when he does need to potty. I won't be able to take him out on his leash every time he needs to go out once Hudson gets here so the fence will help with that. Trust me, Cooper will get lots and lots of lovins, even with the baby! I'm already planning on strapping Hudson on and going for a walk with Cooper. I love cleaning. Does anyone else share this joy? I do go through my days when I don't do anything around the house but I feel like a total lazy butt and horrible wife on those days. Plus, Cooper sheds really bad and I can't stand dog hair so I'm constantly sweeping the floors and furniture. Actually, if you came to my house right now chances are you'd see the sweeper out. I hope my water breaks after I've cleaned the entire house because if not, I will be cleaning before we head to the hospital. I've already told Adam that if we are home when my water breaks I want to take a shower before we go. It will be a long night (or day) ahead!

I promise I will post pictures! I keep meaning to but then I get distracted.. go figure. This pregnant brain has gotten so much worse.. yesterday, I went to get Adam a cup of ice but instead put Cooper's dog food in it. He's lucky I realized before pouring his Sunkist in it!

I won't wait so long to blog~ Until next time =)
