Unbelievable

I can’t believe…

• That it’s MARCH! Where in the world did February go??
• That I am now 30 weeks pregnant. It feels like I can finally “see” the finish line. Like it is within’ reach.
• That we got the nursery painted! This is real!
• That my little sister is going to turn 18 in 8 days!
• That my little sister is graduating HIGH SCHOOL in May!
• That Gene and I are going to be parents soon. And my parents are going to be GRANDPARENTS.
• That we are quickly approaching our FIRST wedding anniversary! Has it already been a year?
• So many people are having babies this year. I’ve been to 3 baby showers since January and I know of a few people who are currently pregnant as well. Is the water tainted or what??
• That my Aunt (Mom’s sister) is due the day before me with her 3rd!
• That it has been almost 7 months since my Grandma passed away :( I miss her so much. And I am so sad she will never get to meet her great granddaughter.
• I only have about 2 1/2 months left of working! I am soo excited to be a stay at home mommy to take care of our little munchkin.
• We have our baby name list down to 3! We’re getting there.

Tonight we are going to Mom’s house for dinner and then going on a walk. After that? Who knows. Gene and I ordered a Hoover SteamVac online and I’m waiting for that to come in so I can shampoo the carpet in the nursery really well. I am going to wash down the baseboards and we need to put window film over the window in there (that window has awful insulation!). After that we can take these humongous boxes out of our living room and move the furniture in. I am sooo excited, I can’t wait to see all of that put together in her room!

Listen to me, “Her Room” ? This really is real, isn’t it? Sometimes I feel like I need to be pinched to even realize how real this is. And then the baby moves and I stop and wonder if it’s gas. And then I realize that it isn’t gas, it is in fact the baby moving. And yep, it is pretty darn real!
