Almost done...

We will be able to paint Will's room by this weekend! I'm so stinkin' excited! It seems like it has taken forever but the guy said he should be finishing it up by tomorrow. So I figure by Friday we can start painting. Then it's carpet, closet organizer and then all his stuff gets moved in:) It will be so much more real! I've been wanting to put his stuff away for the last week. I feel a strong urge to "nest" over this past week. I'm hoping that's due to the room being almost ready and not Will being ready to make his entrance! I will be posting pictures of newly painted room hopefully by next week!

So I'm gonna start having a panic attack soon. We still have not laid carpet or painted Will's room! I am T minus 6 weeks away from his arrival and there is so much to do. The room still needs to be tapped and muded one more time but my uncle has gone MIA so now we have to get someone else to do it. Since my Dad is shelling out the money up front for this work to get done I'm trying not to get on his case but I can't be painted the room when I'm huge pregnant!
I went to the doctor today. I start weekly appts in two weeks! I'm already near the weight limit and I have 6 weeks to go so I decided to ask my doctor if that was bad. She said she wasn't concerned. She doesn't think I'll be gaining much more weight. We'll see about that! My new favorite thing is ice cream..... which I prefer to call "ASS" cream since it's going straight to my ass!
I'm a little worried about having post-pardum. I find myself already feeling overwhellmingly sad at times for no real reason. I know it's hormonal so I can usually cope with it. Once Will is here though I won't have the time to talk myslef down. The good news is Jeff can take up to 8 weeks of paternity leave. He can use vacation time and sick time. He already has over 60 hours of sick time accrued so we're thinking he'll take three weeks off. I'm so happy. It will be so nice to have him around for the first few weeks. We can double team everything and maybe we'll even get some sleep!
