Counting down...

Just a couple more weeks now! Ah, I'm so ready, I'm tired of waddling around everywhere. When I can actually move, that is. Some days, I feel like my legs have just completely shut down and refuse to work.

But, I had my massage this past Friday, and it was AMAZING! I didn't ever want it to end. However, I think it just spoiled me, now I want one every day! That's one bad thing about Angela being back in Denton now, she gives the best massages! I could really use her right now.

My goal by the end of this week is to have my hospital bag packed and ready. This has been my goal for the past week, so I guess today is my deadline. Really, I should have had it packed by a couple weeks ago, according to The Bump. But, obviously, I haven't needed it yet, so whatev.

We started working on the nursery (FINALLY!) The hard part is over-peeling off the wallpaper, scraping the popcorn off the ceiling, and getting the walls ready to be painted. And none of that was actually all that hard-well the only part I really helped with was getting the wallpaper off the walls, but I thought that would've been the hardest part. That's all a bit worrisome to me, though, because now all that leaves is painting, which I thought would be a piece of cake, so of course it's going to be the biggest pain in the ass. (Oops. Pain in the A.)

I've decided that I want to paint a mural on the wall, so my major concern now is going into labor before I finish. And if that happens, who knows when I'll ever get to finish it once baby is here.

A couple other things I wanted to accomplish before she's here: start on her baby scrapbook and get all the sonogram pictures and baby shower pictures done; write a letter to her (I know that sounds corny, but I've been wanted to do that for a while anyway, and I've been told by several people now that I need to do it); mosaic something for the room-but I'm just trying to be serious with myself now, I know that's not going to happen.

Luckily, I do still have a couple weeks to try and finish up last minute things. I've been saying that I hope she's a little early and that I'm so ready to be done with this part and for her to be here, but really I would probably freak out. There's still way too much to do!

Better go get started! :)
