Lately I've been feeling as though I am a ghost of the woman that I was about 3 months ago... like I feel like crap, but can't quite pin down exactly why; and I feel mopey and like I'm being a big ole whiner. See, I'm not a Debbie Downer type of person, and I am not good at it. I am not a big fan of complainers, and I don't do a good job at giving sympathy. So, when I'm feeling crappy myself, I feel like kickin my own butt back into feel good again. I mean, I didn't even get excited yesterday when I got a whole box of earth-friendly cleaning products in the mail yesterday- and that, my friends, is just weird for me! usually, I woulda busted those bad boys out and cleaned my house until it sparkled from top to bottom...
But this time, I just can't shake it. I know that I have a sore throat and that is not helping matters much, but what I really think it is is that I cannot sleep well at night, and that I haven't for probably the past 4 weeks, if I really think back. And I am a sleeper. I have to get my 6-8 hours a night- and I usually zonk out so hard that a bulldozer could run through our bedroom and I would miss it. I sooo miss that sleep. And so does my body. But this little baby girl living in my tummy? She could care less! For she likes to play the drums and run marathons all hours of the night... and day. Oh boy, this could get ugly when she comes around in 8 weeks.
... which brings me to my next point- AHHH!!! We are going to have 2 babies in 8 weeks! Crazy madness, I am totally unprepared! And I am obsessed with being prepared, causing further stress for me because we have not moved Ali out of her baby room into the big girl room, meaning nothing for baby #2 is being prepared! YIKES! Good thing my awesome momma is coming over to paint Ali's big girl room this weekend, so hopefully we can get carpet installed within the next couple of weeks, then put her bunk beds together, and transition her in there (any idea of how that is gonna go!?).

deep. breath!
gonna be okay, it really is. just allow yourself some time to relax, those cleaning products will get used eventually! right now you need to just sit back as much as you can and take it all in...
8 weeks will come in its own good time... :)
Hi, just found your blog from Froggity. We moved our little guy when he was 3 to his "big boy" room in preparation for having a second baby. What helped him transition was of course talking how he was a Big Boy (Huge deal for boys), but we also let him help pick out the decor, which I think helped him love his room more. Maybe try that? Good luck and glad I found your blog. ;)
