Done

It's only 18 more days until our c-section date (29 days from my estimated due date), and I can officially say... I'm Done!  

And no, that doesn't mean everything is off my to-do list, or that I'm truely mentally prepared for bambino's arrival (as if anyone ever is), but I am done with being pregnant and achy... I'm done with having to consciously work to turn over when in bed at night... I'm done with losing any shape to my feet... and I'm done with not being able to do normal stuff or fit into normal places (for example, I was in our storage area and tried to go through a space sideways... lol... that really didn't work well, and I sent stuff tumbling off shelves everywhere).   

Mostly I'm done with this constant emotional roller coaster that both myself and B seem to be on (more me due to baby I would think).  Over the last 5 days I've basically been a mess.  Tears spring to my eyes with surprising stealth moves and then set in and don't leave for what feels like an eternity. 

Please tell me that we'll be able to just relax and be carefree again... have fun... find the humor in every day mishaps... because right now that's such a stretch.  

We are as ready as we need to be for baby's arrival.  Over the last couple of days B & I (plus my mom), have been very productive in getting the nursery to a good enough state.  And I've got my hospital bag packed (and repacked a few times... plus a few more coming up I'm sure!).  Our diaper delivery service comes on friday to drop off our pre-baby diapers and the rest of the gear... and then we will truely be ready to rock and roll.  The rest of the stuff can be accomplished before or after her arrival without any troubles.

B's been a god-send too.  He's put up shelves when gravity seemed against him, and fought a valiant battle with the old blinds making sure the baby's room was now safe.  And our fur-babies (Todd and Hali) are winning out too by getting a wider window sill created for them in our bedroom!! 

Now if the weather would provide some nice breezes to help keep it cool until bambino decides she's well baked and my emotions/hormones would settle a little and we would be golden!
