A few cute pics of baby Luke....we are all great and doing well.

Hey Friends and Family-
Well, its that time! Baby Luke could be arriving anytime now. If he isn't here by Thursday then my doctor will induce that morning. So less than three days at the longest! Yeah! This Mama can't wait.  Despite still not feeling all that great we have had a bit of a cool spell with lots of rain so that has made the last few days somewhat pleasant. (-: Ofcourse once the rain stops we live in a sauna, but atleast there is a little relief.  Jillian and Madie are both just as ready for Luke to arrive as I am......as Jillian told Josh a few weeks back "that baby needs to arrive so Mom will stop being grouchy." (-:
This summer has been good so far. Jillian went to her Dad's to visit for the first couple of weeks of summer and had a great time. She got back Saturday. She had a great end of the school year with lots of fun activities and a cute program her teacher and class put on.  It was called "Rockin' into First Grade."  They did a rendition of Tina Turner's song Rollin' and it was hilarious. They had the moves and all. Just one of the lines was "My brain keeps on turning....cause I just keep on learning....rollin.....rollin.....rollin into first grade." I have it on video and am trying to figure out how to get it on DVD so all can see.
Madie has had a good summer so far too. She had swim lessons last week and did awesome. I have posted a bunch of pics below. She is a fish. I have signed her up for another week because she loved it so much. She maybe a pro by the end of the summer. We have attempted potty training a couple of times but I am not sure it is the right time. She seems not at all interested. Oh well, we will give it a few weeks and try again. I really wanted to have her out of diapers before Luke arrived. Not looking forward to changing two sets of diapers. I guess it isn't that bad- I could be Kate Gosselin changing 6 babies, ha. I can't imagine.
Mom has been here for two weeks now and it has been great having her. Bob and Mary were able to come in town for Labor Day and it was great to have them too. Prior to that we had Nanny and Dad in town helping when I was having a rough time with my breathing. So the last month I feel like we have been running Hotel Moore, but it has been great. I am loving all the extra time with everyone....and help.
Josh hasn't been traveling too much the last few weeks. It has been nice to have him close to home. I know he is excited about Luke's arrival.  He has been the lone ranger man for quite a while now. (-: It will be great to throw another little man in the mix.
Well, that is all for now. Next post I will have lots of pics to share of Luke! Can't wait to share him with you all.
Love to all,
Jess
