Jet Setter

Natalie got this little backpack months ago, before she could even walk, maybe.  She's been playing with the horse in the front, which detaches and has a cool pocket for hiding toys in the back, ever since.  We recently rediscovered the backpack part when we moved her to her new room.  It's been going everywhere with her, filled with various different toys at different times...

In other news, Nat's big kid room is as finished as it can be for now.  I'm still working feverishly on her quilt, and have finally settled on making two cushions for chairs, which I haven't started yet, but ultimately shouldn't take long once I get started.  Otherwise, the furniture is in and clothes, toys, etc are all moved over.  We've been spending lots of time in there, and are aiming to start naps in there as soon as possible!  

On the baby front, officially into the third (and final!!) trimester, with only 11 weeks to go.  We've yet to settle on a name for baby.  Eric has his favorite, and I have mine.  We've discussed various ways to decide, including: picking a third name, arm wrestling for rights (Eric's suggestion, obviously), rock/paper/scissors, straw polling strangers, polling our blog followers, and finally getting Natalie's input.  Her suggestion?  Jack.  I guess this shouldn't come as a real surprise since the only baby she knows is Jack.  Maybe we should just be glad she didn't suggest Minnie or Cici.  She also came up with Baby.  I just love her.
