I seem to have a bad case of preggo brain because I keep looking forward to holding a newborn again and having a baby around the house. I washed all his clothes and got super excited because I can't wait to dress him in the cute clothes we have. Yet, my preggo brain keeps letting me forget that I have to endure many painful hours of labor! :( Umm not cool at all!! Why can't I have the baby without the pain? Thanks Adam and Eve, I truly appreciate your gift to mankind.
Another thing that I keep forgetting about is the sleepless nights and the late nights. Really?? I just want a baby without all the bad stuff. Things were easy with Bobby because Rob worked a 7-3 job and he was always home and he was always there. This time, he works 6-5 (on a good day) and if we are lucky, he is home by 5:30. I know it's all apart of the military life and all apart of this lifestyle and I am not complaining about it because I know it's what we signed up for. I don't know how we are going to adjust to having a baby in the military lifestyle. I can't complain though, because his command is allowing us to skip the week of field time that comes days after Jayden is born, and then they don't go into the field until August. Yet, the field time in August is going to be a killer because he will be gone for three whole weeks. I hate to think that I will be at home for three weeks with a 2 year old and a baby, yet that will actually help time pass by faster.
I am slowly counting down the days till Jayden arrives because I want him so bad. Here in El Paso, it's baby season. Two friends of mine have already given birth to their babies and another friend is getting induced tomorrow morning. All the baby pictures are making me even more anxious and even more excited. I am excited to be able post my pictures of my little one. I can't wait!!! Well, minus the labor part :) tee-hee..
Everything is pretty much ready for him. There are a few last minute things that we need to do. I need to finish organizing his bedroom, finish the last diapers, hook up a few things, get a few things at the store, grab some groceries to last us through May and then finish up some FRG stuff, not to mention write my last paper until May. I can't wait to finish this class and be done until the end of May. I am just so relieved I am taking a break because I don't think that I could have handled school while in the hospital.
I can't wait until I mark off the last thing and then I can just lay back and wait. Yet, this sickness that is has taken over my body is making it difficult, not to mention that it has taken over Bobby too. BOO :( Oh well, we shall hopefully get better before Jayden arrives. I don't like the idea of being in labor and coughing up a lung at the same time. Something about that just doesn't appeal to me at all. :)
