Quick Tuesday Night Thoughts

I knew I needed to kick it into gear today because the list I created took up a whole notepad sheet. I needed to actually complete this list and not just throw it away after ignoring it for a couple of days.

So I set to work this morning anxious to get something done (or at least started). Jo ran around playing and making a huge mess (no big deal;  it happens 3 times a day) while I worked up a sweat prepping for this coming babe. Proud of my accomplishments, I went over to the list eager to cross off a few things and discovered that I could only cross off one thing. 

How will I ever get this list done?? At this rate it will take me months.

Don't worry, I started another project and completed at least two more before the day was done, but whoa that was an overwhelming moment. 

So far we have the bassinet all ready, swing out (needs new batteries though), car seat ready, clothes ready, bottles and freezer bags ready for storing milk, and hospital bag lists written out. I won't pack my stuff until right before because let's face it, I use it all every day, but I can at least get the baby's stuff ready and a few other things packed in the mean time. Mostly just having it written down has eased my troubled and anxious mind.

37 1/2 weeks. Almost 38, really. She's measuring a week behind so I am wondering if she'll be smaller than Jo (although she will be earlier since they aren't wanting me to go too far overdue like I did with Josie). 

In other news, my daughter (you know, the one on the outside of my body that consumes this blog) is pretty funny these days. She's learning how to clean up, putting words together to form complete thoughts, and keeping me laughing all day long with her smiley silly ways. My heart just about overflows with joy when I see her around other babies or young kids. She just loves them so much and I can't wait to see her with her very own baby sister. 

I need to sleep (if this cold that is still going strong will let me). Goodnight little blog!
