...Waiting...

Week 38 is here
So about two more weeks til baby... and here's the to-do list!
Baby's room is about... 1/4 way finished.
Halfway painted - still need to put up moulding
reassemble crib,
and changing table/hutch thing...
I have a car seat.. I just have no clue how to put it in my car, and how all the hooks and stuff work.
And as long as that's all done in two weeks, I'll feel a lot better. I'm not sure what else to do to get our home ready for a baby. But as long as it has a way to get home and a place to sleep I figure I'll learn the rest as I go. What an adventure!
As far as my body is holding up... I have some back ache, but not too bad. I get tired pretty easily, and at about 3:00am this morning when I was going to the bathroom for the 3rd time that night I realized it's going to be an extremely long time before I ever sleep through the night again. But mostly I am just excited, and so glad to be feeling so well. In fact today I have been making the most of it by painting the moulding to hang tonight, went grocery shopping, cleaned the bathrooms, did a load of laundry, and made dinner. Yup I have def earned my bubble bath that I'll enjoy tonight :)

Oh I don't miss those last few weeks of pregnancy. :) But it's so worth it also. And you know what - no one wants to admit it - but you will eventually get back to nights where you actually get the full 8-9 hours of sleep again! I never thought it would happen but it did. I was a much happier momma even after getting a full 6 hours of sleep in a row!

I think the whole getting up 3-4 times a night to pee is just to prep woman when they have to get up 3-4 times a night to feed their babies.
Oh and if you still need to paint the baby's room, give me a call (really) and we can have a painting party and knock it out fast.
