I&#8217;m sitting in the Nashville airport waiting to catch a plane to Chicago.  Already it&#8217;s been a stressful day, and it&#8217;s only 10:00.  Renee and Jonathan left for Florida yesterday and I spent the rest of the day getting all of the stuff I done I needed to for work.  But, as is prone to happen when I&#8217;m living the bachelor lifestyle, I procrastinated a bit and went to bed way too late.  Then I must have turned my alarm off without waking up and ended up oversleeping by a half hour and had to scramble to get everything ready so I could catch the shuttle to Nashville.  But I was on the road only 5 minutes later than I had planned and was feeling good&#8230;until I looked over at the passenger seat and saw the files I was supposed to drop off at the office before I left.  And I was already down the mountain.  Yeah, I cursed.  Everything is fine now, though, so here I wait.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Jonathan turned three on Tuesday and had a great birthday party.  We invited a bunch of friends from the college and our new neighbors, the Owens&#8217;, and partook of a fantastic cake Renee made with Kelli&#8217;s mom.  Seriously, it was gorgeous.  Check out the pictures <a href=\"http:\/\/www.litschers.com\/photo-gallery\/2008\/jonathans-3rd-birthday\/\">here<\/a>.  Anyway, Jonathan had a ton of fun, though he made sure to point out to everyone that even though his party was on Monday, he &#8220;was still 2, he&#8217;s not 3 yet.&#8221;  He finally turned 3 on Tuesday and spent the night sleeping in the big queen-sized bed in his room.  And didn&#8217;t fall out&#8230;which is a miracle the way he sleeps.  Then he got to go on a plane on Wednesday, is hanging out with Papa and Nanny and Jack now and is going to Sea World in a few days.  I don&#8217;t know if he&#8217;s had a better week before.<\/p>\n<p>Renee and I also had a little bit of a start when we realized that Baby Brother will be coming in about 10 weeks.  Sheesh, that seems awful soon.  I don&#8217;t know if it was the stress of the first trimester, but it really seems like this pregnancy is flying by.  Jonathan still wants Baby Brother to come out now, and I think Renee is starting to be about ready as well.  In fact, she could probably write about how everything is going herself, but might need a little encouragement.  So, if you&#8217;re getting sick of hearing from me about everything, why don&#8217;t you go ahead and start badgering Renee to start posting on here.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">            \n\t\t<div class=\"ngg-gallery-singlepic-image \" style=\"max-width: 320px\">\n\t\t\t    \t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.litschers.com\/updates\/wp-content\/gallery\/jonathans-3rd-birthday\/p1280424.jpg\"\n\t\t     title=\"Someone was excited for their cake!\"\n             data-src=\"http:\/\/www.litschers.com\/updates\/wp-content\/gallery\/jonathans-3rd-birthday\/p1280424.jpg\"\n             data-thumbnail=\"http:\/\/www.litschers.com\/updates\/wp-content\/gallery\/jonathans-3rd-birthday\/thumbs\/thumbs_p1280424.jpg\"\n             data-image-id=\"696\"\n             data-title=\"p1280424.jpg\"\n             data-description=\"Someone was excited for their cake!\"\n             target='_self'\n             class=\"ngg-fancybox\" rel=\"541f1e6c6f632649eaf710199503f3ac\">\n            <img class=\"ngg-singlepic\"\n             src=\"http:\/\/www.litschers.com\/updates\/wp-content\/gallery\/jonathans-3rd-birthday\/cache\/p1280424.jpg-nggid03696-ngg0dyn-320x240x100-00f0w010c010r110f110r010t010.jpg\"\n             alt=\"p1280424.jpg\"\n             title=\"p1280424.jpg\"\n              width=\"320\"               \/>\n    \t<\/a>\n\t\t      <\/div>\n        <\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">            \n\t\t<div class=\"ngg-gallery-singlepic-image \" style=\"max-width: 320px\">\n\t\t\t    \t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.litschers.com\/updates\/wp-content\/gallery\/jonathans-3rd-birthday\/p1270419.jpg\"\n\t\t     title=\"Renee did this with some help from Kathi Owens.\"\n             data-src=\"http:\/\/www.litschers.com\/updates\/wp-content\/gallery\/jonathans-3rd-birthday\/p1270419.jpg\"\n             data-thumbnail=\"http:\/\/www.litschers.com\/updates\/wp-content\/gallery\/jonathans-3rd-birthday\/thumbs\/thumbs_p1270419.jpg\"\n             data-image-id=\"692\"\n             data-title=\"p1270419.jpg\"\n             data-description=\"Renee did this with some help from Kathi Owens.\"\n             target='_self'\n             class=\"ngg-fancybox\" rel=\"b4dcef3ede2502b743f1d7c71ae3786f\">\n            <img class=\"ngg-singlepic\"\n             src=\"http:\/\/www.litschers.com\/updates\/wp-content\/gallery\/jonathans-3rd-birthday\/cache\/p1270419.jpg-nggid03692-ngg0dyn-320x240x100-00f0w010c010r110f110r010t010.jpg\"\n             alt=\"p1270419.jpg\"\n             title=\"p1270419.jpg\"\n              width=\"320\"               \/>\n    \t<\/a>\n\t\t      <\/div>\n        <\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">            \n\t\t<div class=\"ngg-gallery-singlepic-image \" style=\"max-width: 320px\">\n\t\t\t    \t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.litschers.com\/updates\/wp-content\/gallery\/jonathans-3rd-birthday\/p1280432.jpg\"\n\t\t     title=\"Awww...\"\n             data-src=\"http:\/\/www.litschers.com\/updates\/wp-content\/gallery\/jonathans-3rd-birthday\/p1280432.jpg\"\n             data-thumbnail=\"http:\/\/www.litschers.com\/updates\/wp-content\/gallery\/jonathans-3rd-birthday\/thumbs\/thumbs_p1280432.jpg\"\n             data-image-id=\"703\"\n             data-title=\"p1280432.jpg\"\n             data-description=\"Awww...\"\n             target='_self'\n             class=\"ngg-fancybox\" rel=\"6a18f23a2570d4534b3fa1e4a9ee7a78\">\n            <img class=\"ngg-singlepic\"\n             src=\"http:\/\/www.litschers.com\/updates\/wp-content\/gallery\/jonathans-3rd-birthday\/cache\/p1280432.jpg-nggid03703-ngg0dyn-320x240x100-00f0w010c010r110f110r010t010.jpg\"\n             alt=\"p1280432.jpg\"\n             title=\"p1280432.jpg\"\n              width=\"320\"               \/>\n    \t<\/a>\n\t\t      <\/div>\n        <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What a morning.
