I'm still alive! I think.

First of all, do I even keep this going?  I mean, what's it been, 4 MONTHS?  I figured that Austin Ali would just shrivel up and die... after all, there's no more Austin in the Ali (omg! total porn alert!) but I figured I'd at least give one more HOLLER AT YOUR MOTHER in case you never hear from me again after Friday.  'Cause in all likelihood, you won't. 

BECAUSE THAT IS WHEN BABY LAUREN ARRIVES!!*

AHHHHH!  Someone asked tonight "are you feeling ready?  Excited?  Nervous?"  And my answer was, "none of the above."  It's really weird.  I'm not sure if it's complete denial, or I'm just too tired to feel anything.  And no, I AM NOT READY.  But what I do know is I can't wait to get my paws on this little lamb!  So maybe that would qualify as excited.

Baby Lauren decided to hang out breech like Logie, but then out of the blue at like 35.765 weeks she decided to do a little FLIP.  That wasn't uncomfortable or anything.  So, the last two weeks have been, "shit.  Do I do a VBAC?  Willis, should I do a VBAC?  Everyone else within earshot/in my contact list, should I do a VBAC?"  So here's the plan.  If she decides to try and make her debut before Friday, I'm going to try.  If not, then scrub me in for the c/sec.  8 am Friday is the last day for Austin Ali to be prego.  EVER AGAIN.  Tie those babies up, too.  I'm done.  Shop's closed.  (Just FYI in case you were wondering about my birth and/or future children plans because I know you all were.) 

Let's recap the last few months, shall we?  Oh!  We made it back to MA in case you were wondering.  Like 4 months ago. 

Here's about where I think we left off. 

A big truck came to take away our car.
We got the bug morgue spot right in the front.
Oh and then those assholes stole our ipod.
Too bad it was like the first ipod ever made, losers.
Enjoy.
Packed light for the plane.  It wasn't as bad as I thought
it would be, traveling alone with Logie prego. 
ps I'm lying.

1 of the 4 minutes Logan wore his harness
on the airplane.
 
Logie got to experience his first town car ride from the
airport because he's a baller (and his mama is too
paranoid to have a Boston cabbie drive him)
 
Lots of QT with his buddies nat nat and bobby since
we stayed at their wonderful house for like 157 days (poor things)
(Logan tormented them and drooled all over their toys)

OH someone also GOT CUTER if that's even poss

had some fun at an extended stay

more fun in the hotel

THEN THE MOVERS CAME WITH ALL OF OUR SHIT!

oh and this?  This "contract pending house sale?"
This went on for 68 days.  Instead of 30.  68.
I was a freak with worry and drove everyone around me crazy.
EVERYONE.

I had a picture of our house here but got creeped out that a stalker would like Google map it or something.

OHMYGOD IF I KEEP UP THIS PACE I'M GOING TO BE SITTING HERE UPLOADING PICTURES WHILE LAUREN GOES OFF TO COLLEGE. 

Let's fast forward.  In no particular order, here's what's been going on as of late.  As of late?  wtf?   

Logan grew a mullet

FIRST SNOW!


First haircut!  I cried.
And saved his hair.  pyschoooo

got cuter AGAIN
 
I'M NOT COMFY!


Logan is going to miss his fave pillow
(Lauren's butt)

Just another morning in labor and delivery...
FALSE ALARM!

Don't we look Amish here?
I feel like we look Amish.

after nap cuddles in bed only every day
because I'm too flipping tired to do anything.
DEAR GOD DO I HAVE ANYTHING ELSE
I CAN WEAR BESIDES THAT RED SHIRT?!


In case you don't know how to tell time,
that's AM.  As in 4:53am. 
Someone is very excited to meet his baby sister
so has decided that sleep is for pansies.
KILLMENOWOMG.
 
trick or treat.  in Willis's office building, since
we were in Maine hiding from hurricane
Sandy during the real deal....

just about sums up the last 2 months or so.

cousins....

Willis only has 1/2 a face now.  It's totally weird.

lots of time locked on the deck

destroying the pantry, per usual

slumber party

I heart new england

AARON AND CATHERINE HAD
A BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  HI CHARLOTTE!

auntie duty!!!!!!!! 
omg I am wearing that shirt again. 
this is getting embarrassing. 

I mean..............

one of the last mullet shots.

lookin good Logiebear

So, there you have it.  Aside from missing my friends (and their babies) in Austin terribly (well, most of them anyway AHAHAHHAHAHAHA JUST KIDDING, OF COURSEEEEEEE) and the ability to drive 12 minutes and be at any store imaginable, it's good to be home. 

T - 2 days until this family of 3 becomes 4!  Maybe you'll hear from me again.  I CAN'T QUIT YOU!!!!!


*Guess I better get used to pink.
