Three weeks ago called and it wants its three daily graces to show up on time.
I can't believe it's been three weeks since I've posted. Terrible, yes, but I have been busy and got behind and the more behind I got, the more pointless it seemed to continue. But, dammit, it's not pointless. I have 50 days left of this challenge, and though I awarded myself a three week vacation, it's time to come back. So here are today's three positives:
1. We are getting more and more baby ready with each day. My cousin, Nicole, has been helping me and today we pulled all the baby totes and gear out of storage to get laundry started and things like the car seat installed and the baby swing wiped down and reassembled. We're getting there, people, so this baby really needs to stay put for another week; preferably two :)
2. Jeff has been in Vegas for a work thing all week and because he (and I) was worried about my ability to chase after our very busy toddler while this pregnant and in case I went into labour, my cousin Nicole has been staying with us all week. She is just such a huge help, and words wouldn't sufficiently explain how true this is. She's helping me clean my house, care for and watch Carter, get the organizing done in the various parts of the house I have on my nesting to-do list, and she's keeping me company while missing my husband. She's a gift, no question.
3. Today was a very busy, but good and productive day and those feel good. Like I said, Nikki and I made a lot of progress getting baby stuff out and cleaning and organizing the back hallway/storage area in my house. I also had a prenatal appointment today that went well. I'm growing and so is my soon-to-be-there-no-longer baby bump; I got the last thing done at work that I really wanted to get done (I've actually been off starting my early mat leave since last Wednesday, but wanted to finish this one thing); and I finished the day off with date night with the two best dates (my boy and Nikki) that started with a tasty supper and ended with a visit to Chapters, where Carter had the best time exploring the toys and books.
Life is good.
