you follow 4 blueberry muffins with half a jar of olives...and pretty much decided it was the best snack ever. (In my defense, the muffins were healthily homemade and small).
Lots of stuff going on this week...and we have continuously been busy. Last night Colin got home at 5:30 which was EARLY for us and we were able to get out of the house as a family, then enjoy BBQ pork sandwiches, coleslaw, and french fries (we take turns every other night with dinner--the in-laws and us...well really Lauren and I and it makes cooking/cleaning dinner a blast).
Today, especially, Archer has been horribly clingy and was really sad about having to take a nap-normally it is a request of his. He would ask to "rock" and then get sleepy and ask for "night night" but when I put him in his bed he would cry and say, "mama night night." Hahah..and he is up and calling--will finish this thought later!

"30 minute lunch break"
I have started giving myself a 30 minute lunch break once Archer goes down for his nap...I had to set a limit for myself or I would honestly never get anything done...
So...
Archer started "pretend" today and it has been amazing, and super fun! He likes to mix/make things (mostly oatmeal and pancakes) and then offer it to me "mommy have it" and I of course take a giant bite and he says "YUMMY." Pretty fun---and super weird. It's so interesting to see him become a little person that is starting to understand the world.
Yesterday we woke up (Sunday is Colin's only day off as of right now) and had a wonderful breakfast with our in laws followed by a long trail walk. There was a fresh stream running all along the trail we were on and Archer took it upon himself to simply walk right into it. Pretty funny, and we let him play in there for a good bit before continuing on. After that we gave him a short nap, I napped (I have declared Sunday as a funday and NO WORK day), and Colin did an hour like mountain bike ride...NUTS. We woke Archer up and headed into Salt Lake City for a Bee's baseball game...WHAT A BLAST. They have a free train for the kids to ride and a playground, not to mention we sat on the lawn. It was a beautiful day and Archer got a snow cone, hot dog, lemonade, etc. After that we came home and had chicken wings and bedtime. Busy day! On the agenda for this week: a local indoor swimming pool with a lazy river and water slides, visiting a farm, two mornings of story time, and an indoor bounce house thing...not to mention hopefully several walks and lots of park playing.
P.S. loving Utah...missing friends (lots of asking for Brody and Eliza for sure). I miss having a friend (esp. Elllen) to chat with/do fun kid stuff with too. If only Louisiana and Utah were closer.
-Ok, lunch break nearing an end...blah.

I always do this...
I am the worst blogger, in fact, was considering just giving it up all together but then decided something is better than nothing AND since I am no longer working perhaps I will have "more time"...even though my life seems to be about 200 times busier!
We are in Utah! It is amazing, AMAZING, amazing here! It is absolutely gorgeous and there is SO...MUCH...TO...DO! Archer and I went to a little park today for lunch and the park included all of his favorite: mud, sticks, rocks, and swings. I am having an absolute BLAST being home all day...I feel wonderfully domestic--from packing Colin's lunches in the morning...to 2 hours of tidying up while Archer naps, banana bread baking, and preparing yummy dinners are the end of the day (anyone who really knows me knows this is pretty much my destiny/dream come true). That being said, it is INTENSE! I am used to a "break" from Archer a couple of nights/week and the way it is going now---it is NONSTOP! Archer has developed a very intense attachment to me---pretty serious, and Colin has been working from about 8-7 (if we are lucky). Therefore, it is all day of Archer entertaining and everything else that a day involves---hopefully once the "busy" part of Colin's job slows down he will be able to be home this summer around 2 or 3pm and we can spend way more time as a family.
Baby Kimble #2 continues to grow..and grow! I need to take another picture because this babe is getting big QUICK! It is crazy how fast this pregnancy is going by...4 months from now we will either have another babe or be waiting for the moment any day. I have serious concerns about this baby being a girl...for the first few months I thought of it as nothing other than a boy. I have a boy, I know a boy---we have clothes, toys, etc and looking back I think how great my older brothers life would have been with a little brother (instead of me as an annoying girly little sister). In my mind, Archer was going to have a little brother. Suddenly I realized, THIS COULD BE A GIRL?!?! Colin thinks I am wildly dramatic in my obsessive thinking about having girl, I'm just not sure I am emotionally prepared! Suppose I will have to be! Also, not sure we are financially prepared for the items that just have to come along with a sweet baby girl. I also think because I am not very "girly" this will perhaps spark something in me--and boy what would it do to Colin?!?!? That being said, we had our 20 week ultrasound and decided not to find out the sex again--so here we go!!!
Archer is insane...and def. reaching the terrible twos! We have some very challenging moments and have started "time out" like situations. It's crazy how willful such a small sweet child can be (sort of upsetting to see him intentionally make me upset). I cant wait to have a newborn and a willful two year old at the same time ;) His talking has taken off!!! He can now say two or three word statements. He counts, "won, twooo, THREE" and he counts pretty much everything with impressive accuracy. Today while we were at the park there were two ducks swimming and I asked him how many ducks there were, he lifted his little hand pointed and said, "won, two...two ducks." I'm not going to say he is a genius directly... :) At the end of the day (and for right now he is only letting mama put him to bed) we have started talking about what we did that day-starting with waking up. It's super fun and we can talk back and forth...I will say "and then we rode in the stroller and where did we go?" he will reply "park, sand, swing, water"...haha, not much for an absolute thought, but it's interesting to hear him recall events from the day and end the statements saying "fun" or "yummy". Pretty neat little guy...and most def. just my BUDDY.
Ok, I have a tremendous list of things I need to get done around here...this is seriously intense! But, I am going to once again say...I am really going to try to update this blog on Fridays (with a new baby coming I just dont want to forget things as they happen).
Love,

this blog needs a facelift!!!
Horray sweet baby number two!!! I need to post another picture asap because suddenly there is a baby belly! I am really trying hard to resist the urge to eat not only more than I should, but also resist some of the stuff I shouldn't eat (which I gave myself full permission to not only overeat with Archer, but also eat LOTS of junk). I was miserable at the end of my pregnancy and have decided to see if that is just how it goes for a small from the hip to the ribs lady, or if perhaps 42lbs was a bit much to gain!
The excitement for the second baby is in full swing! I can now feel it moving around often and Colin has been able to feel the baby kick from the outside. Sibling jealously may be taking place ;) Every time I lay down to feel this little babe squirm and wiggle (somehow it just feels more concrete when you can feel it kick against your hand) Archer walks up and sits on my hands...which are attempting to feel the babe...silly boy!
Archer is stinking smart. Today he did several things that made me wonder if I had someone been asleep for the past 11 months (which sometimes isn't far from the truth) because suddenly he has a wealth of knowledge with the ability to use it! He no longer sits in his high chair...he sits at the table with mom and dad. While this means losing the luxury of simply spraying of the high chair tray, it also means seeing a very proud little guy who is very sure he is big. Our sweet full of joy boy...he now exclaims at almost everything which is absolutely adorable! I was showering yesterday and he ran in saying "mama mama mama" so I peeked through the curtain and will hopefully never forget this moment (as trivial as it may seem)-Archer gasped with a giant smile on his face and in either little hand was holding a cell phone (one his one mine) and exclaimed "PHONES". Priceless. If only we could get him that excited about bedtime...or picking up toys. :) Also today we were putting together his little puzzles, which he is an old pro at, and he picked up the yellow circle, said "lellow" put it where it belonged and then said "mama moon." Little things like that just amaze me, little buddy at 18 months is able to recognize a yellow circle as being a "moon" even completely out of context. Flash forward to bath time, and me attempting to multi-task dinner with bath....Archer is a HUGE fan of Elmo---somehow, annoying as it may be, so they sell this organic Elmo mac. We bought a handful once when they were on sale (in the amazing frozen food aisle..) and Archer devoured them at every serving. Unfortunately when they went back to being full price there was no more Elmo mac in the Kimble house. Colin left today (more on that later) so I decided to spare some extra change for the sake of convenience. I opened the package and of course, Archer GASPED. He could hardly bare the 3 minutes it took to make Elmo's meal come to life in the microwave. I got him in the bath, gave him the first bite, and little fat man replied, "thanks Elmo." I was stunned..and impressed, and then shocked when he opted for the entire serving of broccoli and carrots while leaving the rest of the mac!
Colin is gone...my heart sunk typing that! He is only gone for three weeks, but I'm already having a bit of a time. I really, REALLY, really love that man, and I really enjoy having his love for life daily. He left probation last March, so for the past year we have had a couple of months where neither of us worked and then a year with him being home and around nonstop. I miss my best friend, and I'm not giving Archer too long before he really starts to miss his daddy!!! However, business calls and Colin had to go to Utah to get everything ready for the spring (if it ever springs, two days ago they got 20 inches of snow...and it snowed again today).
Ok, so the plan is, work really hard the next few weeks and stay really busy!!! Seeing as I work three night/week, have an 18 month old, am growing him a baby brother or sister, and have an entire house to put into boxes, I'm not sure that will be much of a challenge!!! I want to spend as much time as we possibly can with friends before we go!!!!
OK, I'm going to scoop my little bruiser up from his deep sleep to carry him into bed with mama...just tonight. I really wish it could be for the entire three weeks Colin is gone, BUT Archer is such a good sleeper and I want putting him down to be easy on the people that are going to help put him to bed while I work my final NINE SHIFTS!

The Kimbles

Such a Blessed of a blessed lady....
I'm sitting here at work, with a second to sort of think (which when you have an 18 month old you don't often get). I started by daydreaming about what I "hope" or feel more inclined to have the sex of this baby be...I guess I was actually day dreaming about what it would be like with either sex. From there I started thinking about what it is like to see your husband in your child. My friend Ellen and I go back and forth about if there is a different way to love your son and daughter and I absolutely think there is. I know that when we have a daughter, or if this particular babe is a girl I will have a new and different kind of love for her, but looking at my little boy and seeing in him the man I love and adore the most is nothing short of perfect. To watch the two of them play around, fix things, and be buddies is insane. This morning I got home from work only to walk in on Colin spooning Archer in our bed...it was close to one of the sweetest sights. The two of them are buddies and I am so excited for their future together (and for me to get a sweet bond with a little girl). Oh yes, tonight right before I had to leave for work Colin left with Archer to rent a movie. Minutes later I was driving down the road towards work when out of the corner of my eye I noticed a tall blond guy with an adorable baby on his shoulders...SWEET!!!
Now the attraction between Colin and Archer wasn't immediate....we have talked about this several times and I think Colin was at a pretty rough time in his life in general (trying to figure out what the heck he was going to do while working a job he didn't really like...and having a babe). When Archer got here I think Colin had some pretty strong thoughts on how attached he would feel from the start...and he was fairly disapointed. From an exhausting 32 labor...to a babe that wanted to nurse pretty much nonstop, there wasn't much fun in having Archer around. (I hope Colin doesn't mind me sharing this...). It didn't take long though, Colin says 4 months, until Colin started to see bits of how glorious being a dad was turning out to be! LONG STORY SHORT...today Archer was throwing a fit...a very, very, very long and very, very, very loud fit. I had a moment where I looked at Colin and thought...this must wear him out! I consider myself to be pretty darn patient and at this point I wanted to lock Archer in the garage and take a nap...but Colin hoisted that sweet little screaming angry boy up on his shoulders and said, "he needs a walk outside with his dada" and off the two of them went, Archer instantly putting his tears away. COLIN IS SUCH AN AMAZING MAN/HUSBAND/DAD.
I feel like this blog has been all over the place...it might have something to do with the fact that I am beyond exhausted...somehow 4 hours of sleep today after working overnight last night and now working tonight just wasn't enough. I am tired and debating a cup of coffee...and simply have tons on my mind. Mostly...I really love my life and I am really thankful for all of the blessings I have received. I live and get to be with the two most amazing men all of the time!
Ps. Colin leaves in about a week to go to Utah until the first weekend in May. Anyone who reads this and wants to spend a night/morning at my house anytime in April...PLEASE FEEL FREE! I rely so heavily on Colin for so many things and this next month is going to be a rude wake up call I'm afraid!!
Ok, I must end this madness...I have no idea what I am typing at this point...

Swweettt Memories...
Today I was flipping through Archer's pictures, from birth until now....and started sobbing!!!! I regret having to work, even though I know at the time it was sort of a must do thing...but looking back through the months (9 of them...what do I really have to complain about) that I was home I started to think about out quiet routine and our days filled with nothing other than snuggling, playing, or running errands together...BOY WE HAD IT GOOD!!!! I think about our second babe only to realize the two of us will never have that special time...and I thank God for Archer and that chance we had to just be buddies all day everyday for nine months. I also thank God that Colin is about to start a job and at least for the first six months I shouldn't have to work...and if I work after that it will just be PRN somewhere for my own sanity. I miss lazy days of not a thing but playing.
In other non-depressing news.. haha, I kid, I really did learn an incredible amount working for this past almost year, but I suppose as my year is wrapping up and we are preparing for the move I am filled with excitement to once again be just mom for a bit. If I could figure out how to land a really cool phone triage job that would be amazing, but if not...than if not!
OK, so the point of this post was to put up a picture of what baby #2 belly looks like at 14.5 weeks...I was waiting to get big early like most people often claim happens...I do think this time it is taking it's time. Some days the belly seems bigger than others...but for the most part still looks like I either never lost the weight from Archer or I had a really good time partying in college....
Love from the almost UTAH Kimbles.

Ok Christy...
I totally agree with my friend Christy...how dare I stalk so many blogs but fail to ever update my own!!!
The move to Salt Lake is getting super close, but somehow it feels like it is never going to happen. I AM SO READY TO BE DONE WORKING!!! I love my job, I LOVE being a nurse, but before that I love being a mom, and I dont think Archer is selfish (or the next babe in line) to ask for a few years of me being mommy full-time, with a promise to return to nursing...eventually, and who knows perhaps sooner rather than later, but that's a grim outlook!
15 weeks preggo ALREADY. I totally feel guilty for this babe getting second born syndrome already!! I never really think about being pregnant unless I am at work (which means I actually have SOME time to think) or about to go to sleep or wake up and have to pee for the millionth time! I think I love this baby more at this point because I actually know and realize what it will be in the end, but I also spend my days playing/chasing around a very busy 18month old!!! The other night at work we borrowed the ultrasound machine from the ER and I got to watch the little bean open and close its hands and move around like CRAZY! Perhaps Colin and I are going to get what we asked for this time...or at least get a run for our money.
Archer has been sick the last couple of days, high fever. I'm pretty sure he has Roseola...blah, first time for baby boy to be sick, and sick he is!!! He has been getting lots and LOTS of mommy daddy love, and in fact spent the past two nights sleeping with mama and last night with dada...I'm not going to lie...Colin PUSHED me out the door to work (with tears in my eyes) because he was so excited to get the chance to snuggle with Archer all night (if mama is around mama generally wins).
