Countdown Is On!!

Things have been very busy around the Maschino Household. We have no more than 4 weeks left before Baby Madelyn arrives. Most things are ready, but I have a few finishing touches on the nursery. (Pictures to come) I always said I was not going to change it from when the boys were in there but I could resist. The boys are getting anxious, especially Max. He asks about everyday if this is the day she's coming out. We have told him all along that she will come this fall when the combines come out to harvest. Well, on Tuesday I told him it was the first day of Fall and we were going to make trees for a project. He said "oh yeah is Madelyn coming today???" Well I kind of wished he was right, but patience, patience. She will be here soon enough and this household is going to change forever, for the better (I'm sure most of the time)!!!

Max has been in preschool for several weeks now and is finally enjoying it. He also started his vision therapy, which is absolutley loves. Probably more than preschool. He has started learning braille. Yesterday he typed his name on the Braille Machine. It is amazing how quickly kids pick up on things. He is truely a very smart kid. His memory is unbelievable.

We also have been working hard on getting our yard back together. It doesn't look like it is going to be done anytime soon!!!!!!!! Which doesn't make this pregnant women very happy. The garage is done, but the concrete around it and the sidewalks are not done. We have dirt or should I say mud everywhere (beings it rained for the last 5 days). Water line trenches, rock piles, lime piles, ugh... I am very disappointed because I thought when we started building this garage it would all be done in time to reseed the yard and once again my schedule and someone elses schedule doesn't match up. Anyway, on this something else. I just needed to vent.

I haven't taken any pictures lately. Need to be doing that, but have been so busy. Will try to get some posted soon!!!!
