Two weeks!

Two weeks, two weeks, two weeks, two weekstwoweekstwoweekstwoweekstwoweeks.....
TWO WEEKSYikes.

About this time in TWO WEEKS I will have a new baby boy that I have NO IDEA WHAT TO DO WITH. That is the thought that is plaguing me lately. Oh I know, I know...it will all come back to me. I remember feeling this way with Aube on our first day together...holding her, thinking WHAT THE HECK DO I DO WITH YOU?! lol.

I have this feeling that I need to do things with the two big sisters....get out of the house, do stuff together, spend quality time where I pay attention to just them. I don't know why I feel like this...it's not like having a new baby is a jail sentence, I'll be able to leave the house from time to time, lol...at least I hope. But along with baby comes me not working until June (YAY) and then after that I'm cutting back my hours. So therefore...nada mucho cash-o. I guess a smart person wouldn't go all out and spend money on the Zoo or lunch or movies....they'd save the money and whatnot. But if there's one thing I've never been accused of...that would be being smart with money! Ü

We went to the Zoo today...we tried to go last week, but there were like a gazillion people there on spring break, so we postponed it. I tried to pick the most beautiful day per weather.com...and it worked! It was SO PRETTY today. Oh man. While we were eating lunch, I looked around at all the other tables, noticing families or groups of friends or grandma's with mom's and kids....everywhere I looked there were adults sitting having conversations. Then I looked at my girls...and thought, well...no grownup convo...but we never lacked having anything to talk about! They may never remember that mommy took them to the zoo, and it was just us...but I know I'll remember holding their hands...or rather, having enough hands to hold onto them both!

And of course, I forgot my camera...whoops.

Having a new baby IS a jail sentence! LOL
We took the girls to the big carousel the day before my c-section. They had no idea what was coming the next day, but it felt good for me to give them extra attention! Good luck!

You'll do fine and it will be so exciting for the girls as well that they might not notice as much that they aren't leaving the house as much as before.

Bringing a new baby home does add a whole new dimension to life and family... but it is so worth it!!!

I always felt a rush to get so much done before a new baby came to our home too. I hope you get everything important done and that everything goes well with the arrival of your new baby!!

I cannot believe you have less than 2 weeks left!! Crazy!! I have to admit that I'm nervous about having another baby in the house too...it's a whole new ball game when you've gone so long without having a baby, plus...having a boy after 2 girls...a bit intimidating!! :) You'll be great though!!
