Nesting already? A revelation

Hi all! So, today I woke up with this instant urge to get everything in order and the house cleaned and ready for the baby! So, things are slowly falling into place!

This is the first summer I haven't attended classes or worked due to being a high risk pregnancy. So I have had the summer off to spend with the kids, but when they are here, it's hard to do what I really need to do, because most of the time, we are out and about doing fun things! But now that they are gone for the weekend, I feel this need to get things in order once again!

You see, when things sort of ended suddenly with Ry, I stopped caring about a lot of things. I mean I went through the motions of painting my son's new room and getting it set up, but my heart was not in it. But for some reason today as I was talking to God He told me I needed to get things in order again and I'd be happier. I'd feel proud again. And then this morning the baby was really moving and I felt his little acrobats and it filled me with joy and I wanted things in order again so that when it comes I will not be overwhelmed and I will be ready!

You see, I was told that this one has a huge potential of coming sooner than Alexis did since this is my 3rd and I am high risk. That means the beginning to mid November. Yikes! That is not too far off! I am praying that God holds it in me until it's Christmas due date! Oh OK, I'd rather have it Christmas Eve, so we can be home on Christmas! That's all I want for Christmas is my Christmas baby! I am so excited! It still seems so far away. Maybe it's because I still have to wait for the baby's sex! Then it'll seem closer even though that still means I have 20 more weeks! LOL! The past months have seemed to fly by now! At the time, I felt it dragged on, but now I see that it was just the opposite! How we wish life would speed up at times and then not realize how fast it goes, and then it flies by and we think, I wish I had done that, or I wish that I could've done something differently. Looking back we never realize what we were doing at the time. We don't realize the choices we are making at that time will affect our lives forever!

Have a great Saturday!

Back to cleaning!
