Some things that I am loving and hating (or at least really disliking) right now:
Love: That fall is really here...perfect weather, pretty colors. Love it.
Hate: That winter is coming...SOON!
Love: Miley's sweet little kiss marathons that she gives me (MA MA MA MA MA....her kissing sounds as she is holding my face).
Hate: Fighting with Miley every morning to get her dressed (Any advice from you more experienced moms out there?? I give her options, make sure her clothes are comfy, etc. She would just rather stay in her PJ's).
Love: That I am starting to feel baby boy move more.
Hate: That I am starting to get much bigger. I am not a cute little pregnant girl. I get huge. And I had just gotten back to a weight/shape that I was comfortable with before I got pregnant with this little guy. Oh well. Hopefully I can get back to it quickly after he is born, right?
Love: There is only EIGHT more weeks until I got home for the holidays.
Hate: I am not going to see Cameron for probably about three weeks during that time. :(
Love: That we are still in an apartment. We can call someone anytime we need something fixed, I am not too concerned about keeping it perfect in Miley's wake, etc. Plus, if Cam goes to grad school sometime soon, it will make it easy to move.
Hate: That I don't have a house where I can decorate for Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, decorate a nursery, have a yard, and walk right in the door from getting groceries. I know, I know...we could probably at least decorate for the holidays, but with a lack of storage space and lots of moving, we just haven't really stocked up on cute decorations yet.
Love: Candy corn.
Hate: Candy corn (because I eat way too much).
In general, there are many more things that I LOVE than I HATE. Totally random post...I know. This is what happens when you start going a little crazy after being on your own for a few days. ;) Don't HATE me...har har.
The Clark Clan
About Cameron & Wendy
Cameron and I met during our freshman year in college when I needed his help in a calculus class. We became good friends, and finally after a couple years we started dating!! We graduated from the University of Wyoming on May 5, 2007, got married on May 12, 2007, and moved to Minneapolis on June 8th, 2007. Miley Elizabeth joined our family June 22, 2008 (so basically our first year as Mr. and Mrs. was a whirlwind full of all kinds of life changing events!), and we couldn't have asked for a sweeter, happier girl. Landon Edward joined our family on February 17, 2011, and has been the perfect little addition to our family. We are just living the dream!
About Cameron
Cameron graduated with a degree in Finance in 2007 and is working as a financial analyst first for Target, and now for General Mills here in Minneapolis, since June of 2007. His interests include any and all sports, especially football and golf, working out, following the stock market, traveling, and being with family and friends.
About Wendy
Wendy graduated with a degree in Marketing in 2007. For now though, she stays home with Miley and loves every minute of it! Other interests include dancing, reading, traveling, shopping and seeing family.
About Miley
Miley Elizabeth joined our family on June 22, 2008. She is becoming such a good helper in our family, but she is still fiercely independent and full of energy, and loves to do things her way!. She loves reading books, dancing (tap, ballet, and jazz!), playing with friends, princesses and dresses, gymnastics, and doing anything and everything with mom and dad. She has the best laugh in the world, and she can always light up a room!
About Landon
Landon Edward is our newest addition, joining us on February 17, 2011. He already takes the cake as the most laid back member of our family, although he is starting to assert his opinion a little bit more as he gets older! He is such a good little boy, and has the sweetest smile! He is all boy, with his main interests being cars, trucks, planes, trains (anything that goes!), and he loves to play sports! He loves copying and following his big sister, and is a total daddy's boy!

I love that there are only 8 more weeks until you come home for the holidays, too! Way to make it through the long weekend without Cam!
Oh my goodness, Teya was EXACTLY the same way with clothes at that age. It was awful! I mean we would seriously have an all out battle every morning over getting dressed. Half the time I just let her stay in her pajamas but once I put her in preschool it escalated because then she really had to get dressed! I wish I knew what to say! Your doing everything right, buying comfy clothes and giving her options. The good news is, Teya did grow out of it and now she's awesome about getting dressed. She still loves her jammies more than anything but she understands that we have to wear daytime clothes during the day and that she'll get to put on her beloved jammies as soon as it's bedtime again. Things seriously get so much better once kids can reason a little better. Hang in there! I feel your pain!
Also feel your pain on getting huge fast. Probably because we're so short! lol! I have already gained 20 lbs and I still have 4 months to go. Why can't I be a cute tiny prego? Oh yeah, because I love sugar and food too much! haha! As always, wishing we lived close still so we could get huge together : ) I bet you aren't as huge as you think though, we're always our toughest critic. Well this is like the worlds' longest comments so I'm gonna stop now, great post though : )
Keep up the work out routine and you'll be fine after this one's born. And if not, it's a small price to pay for such an amazing blessing (I say this more for me than you b/c I'm hating my body right now).
Also, if you want some decor suggestions, buy some leaves garland. Makes a big difference and super easy to store.
Caleb went through the fighting to get dress and Asher is in that phase right now. I try to distract (both boys LOVE books) so I read a book while I am changing their clothes. It works out pretty well for the majority of the time.
It was fun to read through your list. I can relate to a lot of them! :) I find it hard to believe that you are getting much bigger...all the pregnant pictures you've posted so far, I can't even tell that you're pregnant!
