34 Week Update and Family Celebrations!

I hit my 34 week mark on Tuesday and I finally feel like I can say I am in the home stretch! Seeing as how I gave birth to both boys at 39 weeks, I probably only have about 5 weeks left...I hope!  I'm getting very big and swollen and just really uncomfortable so I pray the next few weeks go by quickly.  But on the other hand I feel like I need more time because we have so much to do to prepare for the her arrival.  Even though I am beyond exhausted, I have a very strong urge to nest and organize.  So the next 2 weeks are going to be spent getting the boys settled in Jack's room together, preparing the nursery, cleaning all the baby gear and washing all her clothes...she has tons!   Our goal is to be done by June 2 so I can spend the last few weeks eating ice cream with my feet up...dare to dream right?!

In addition to preparing for the little princesses arrival, we've been spending a lot of time with family and friends just enjoying spring time in SoCal.  Last Sunday we celebrated Mother's Day and Christian's 41st birthday at our house.  I love when we have our entire family together in one place...especially my brother Jess, his wife Donna and baby Charlie.  It's always special for me and our kiddos love all the cousin time! 

Celebrating all the fabulous mommies...

Da boys making brunch...or should I say the boys watching Joey make brunch!

Me and my boys!  I literally took 12 pictures and this was the best one I could get.  But I'll take it!  They are always adorable to me...especially when they let me dress them alike...

With my mama...

Cousin love...

Our attempts to get a beautiful shot of Mimi and her grand kids.  As you can see they don't all cooperate at the same time.  But the outtakes are hilarious...

Happy Birthday Christian!  I made his favorite Poppy Seed cake...

Here are the two souls that this mama cherishes on Mother's Day and every day!  Man, I love these boys...

...even though they are wild kids!  Gavin loves to play rough with his bro....can you tell?  I love that they have so much fun together. They really are best buddies!
