Whats wrong with me?

As I sit here and type, that little baby count down ticker says....

28 Days 9 Hours 22 Minutes

I should be freaking out, I should be stressing, wondering what life will be like with 3 kids.

I am not ready.

I don't have anywhere for this little child to sleep. Maybe he will have to sleep in his bouncy :0)

I have 4 little blankets that still need to be made.. I feel no rush.

I should be nervous that I'm not ready. I find myself not really even thinking to much about it.

I still need to get my nursing cover made (hooter hider:) )... I feel no rush.

I still need to figure out what the arrangements will be for my kids... still feeling no rush!

I do have 1 pack of diapers, and a few wipes. I suppose that will hold him over for a couple days.

I do have his laundry done..and put away.

I did wash his carseat.. I suppose we can at least legally bring him home from the hospital.... to a totally unprepared house!

What in the world is it going to take for me to realize that

28 days 9 Hours and 22 Minutes

Isn't long.. It will be here in the blink of an eye.

I think its because this pregnancy has gone by SOOOO fast!! It doesn't seem like its time.

If he comes the same time Hannah and Brady did, it would be like... 15-20 Days... STILL... FEELING NO RUSH!

Someone needs to smack me I think!

On another note....

My 30 day challenge is done... WAY less than 30 days... and guess how many BAGS of STUFF came out of my house!!!

21

Yes.. 21 garbage bags of unnecessary STUFF. I have gone through

4 Bedrooms

6 closets

Kitchen

3 bathrooms

Laundry room

Living room

Family Room

Toy room

Office

I feel pretty good about my progress there. Now I suppose its time for me to get smacked into reality and realize that in the next few weeks I will have a newborn. YES, 3 kids.

HEAVEN HELP US!

I have a bassinet you can use if you want. We always kept our new babies in our room for the first couple of months to make night nursing easy. You're seriously welcome to it. :)

I would say you are good to go with getting rid of all that stuff.. there should be an empty drawer somewhere you can put him into.. :)
way to go on the bags of unecessary items.. i need to do some of that.. if only the nesting instinct were close :)

I would love to talk to you about all of this. You should call me when you get a minute. The sleeping arrangement for the 3rd is totally throwing me off. We have the pack and play in our room but I have never been able to have the baby sleep in our room, but I don't want her waking up Lily.

Anyway, I wish I was a little more relaxed about having this baby. This pregnancy has been soooooo long for me. And I obsess about when I will have this munchkin. I feel like I have been ready for 2 months. Except for the name? Can't decide and it is driving me crazy. Do you have a name picked out?

Enjoy the fact that you are not stressing about it. I think I could use a little of that. And I could use our walks to Macey's to help get this labor started.

You'll be fine. That's what the other 2 are for is to take care of the 3rd. Didn't you read that in Babywise?!? Doesn't it feel good to be relaxed and enjoy the fact your baby boy is coming instead of stressed out? I'm glad your pregnancy went by fast. That's impressive all you were able to go through. Way to Spring Clean. I think that should count for your Fall Clean as well. Thanks for telling me how to add the poll to my blog. You get a gold star for teaching me! I appreciate it! Can't wait to see pictures of him!

You are a great mom and I'm sure that it will hit you soon enough. Just think about how happy your kids are going to be when they first see the baby! Your friend is right, You are more prepared then you think!
