T Minus 6 Weeks

Oh this baby can not get here fast enough!!! And yet, I need about 6 more months to be ready for her. But I can't do anything to get ready for her until I find some energy. And, apparently, I am not going to have energy until I stop sharing my body with her. This is a tough spot to be in! The fact that Cline is now sick, working for the next 4 days straight, and all of my free help decided to leave town tomorrow isn't helping matters right now.

At the moment, I'm having a decorating crisis. If I were a more decisive person, I would have a nursery ready to go and a room for Christa ready to go. But I keep changing my mind about which room should be whose, what Christa's big girl bedding should look like, and which curtains look best in which room with which paint color with which bedding. It's an exhausting process, and one that I'm tired of now... mainly because I just can't seem to find the right combination of bedding, curtains, and wall colors. Then I feel guilty for stressing out so much about curtains and quilts - there really are more important things going on in the world. I'm blaming it on the hormones - the stupid, annoying, energy-sucking, tear-jerking hormones that I am so grateful for because they're keeping my baby healthy until she's ready to be born.

She can't get here fast enough. But I need 6 more months to be ready for her.
