It feels as though I have been pregnant for ever. I know that's how everyone gets towards the end , but man I do not remember it being this LONG..lol! I have had no energy most days to do the simplest of tasks around here. The newest issue is not sleeping at night..oh boy. This is not fun , at 4am before the hubbies alarm clock is about to go off I am just barely falling asleep only to have to get up 3 hours from then. I have resorted to taking some medicine at night to help out with this issue.
Other than that we are slowly but surely getting everything ready , we are still missing a few things , OK well MAJOR things ..he might be sleeping in his bassinet at night and his pack n play during the day a little longer than planned if his bedding doesn't ever get here, it is on back order until the 19Th of this month..fingers crossed that it doesn't get pushed back. We have his car seat but the matching stroller we ordered is still floating around in MAIL LAND somewhere!
Oh the joys of living overseas! On the positive side his daddy should have his room all painted by the end of the week , so that makes me happy :)
Ok enough of the rants....
I decided I needed to do something creative and actually FINISH it this time (what a concept huh?) So I decided to join this sweet ladies swap . It seems simple enough , I hope to get started on it later on today.
Thanks to BRITT for this fun award...
The rules say to name 7 things you love and pass the award along to 7 deserving bloggers.
I will post my list tomorrow , that way I have something to BLOG ABOUT!
