Are great, but I've realized I will have to keep myself busy for the three weeks I'm off before the baby comes. I can't stay inside the house all day (unless I'm really sick), I just go crazy.
By about ten this morning I knew I had to get out of the house. So I did. We went to get the flu shot, went out for lunch, did a bit of shopping and then came home and finished my thank you cards.
So now I have a list (I LOVE lists) of one thing to do each day for the first three weeks I'm off work. If the baby comes early, well not everything has to get done, but at least I can keep myself busy if the baby doesn't come till he or she is supposed to. The list doesn't contain the normal 'clean house/do laundry/make dinner' things, just above and beyond the normal every day living things.
I'm getting SO excited to find out if we are going to have a daughter or a son! Jeff now thinks it's a girl, he's going for a girl - Dec 7th - 7 lbs and 12 oz. I am going for a boy - Dec 10th - 8 lbs 3 oz.
We'll just have to wait and see!
Oh - Oprah is GOOD today. It's about listening to the different baby cries and what each one means. I stopped watching it (it's being PVRd) and I want Jeff to watch it with me.

About Me

- I'm a mom to two adorable boys: Carson and Beckett. I started this blog as a journal to keep track of Carson during his first year. One year turned into two years, and now we are in year three. And then along came Beckett so this will be about my TWO sweet little boys - the brothers. I plan on turning this into a book as a keepsake. Time flies so fast and it's so easy to forget when they first flipped over, when they got their first tooth, the sleepless nights etc.... this is my way of remembering.

I'm totally with you, Christy! I'm swimming in lists right now, and I've even got a schedule of stuff to do!:-)
I'm definitely not the "eat bon bons" and watch soaps all day kinda gal. Except for once in a blue moon. Or else, I go mad!
I know I'll probably be kicking myself once the baby comes and hoping for one of these "nothing to do days" but .. hey that's life.
