Let the Count-down Begin

This is it! The last 10 weeks (Lord willing) of pregnancy!  I can’t believe how quickly it’s gone by!  Time flies when you’re having fun….or running around chasing a toddler!  🙂

I checked my app, The Bump, this morning just to confirm I’d not lost track and sure enough, it read “30 weeks – day 1!” (EEEEEKKK!!)

Immediately I went into plan (or panic?) mode.  Oh, the things that need to be done over the next several weeks.  I shared the update with some friends at work, and one friend commented that I had 10 weekends.  I followed up with, “…running around chasing a toddler”.  {trying not to sound like that old friend, Debbie downer…}  How will I get everything done?

Theres a saying about how do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.  Somehow that’s supposed to sound like it’s not as intimidating…but it’s still an elephant!

I guess that’s how I’ll tackle my to-do list for Eliza Jane’s impending arrival…one small task at a time.

First, I needed a master list. Check.  I made that this morning (except for all the things that need to be purchased..which is actually a really big list item…).  Now, to try to determine what can only be done on the weekends and try to start something this weekend.  Then, determine what items I can accomplish during the week, on lunch breaks or even after R has gone down for night-night.  {this is probably unrealistic since I am usually exhausted by then! but I’m shooting for the stars!!}  I can see me in our break room at work making bows for Eliza Jane…ha!

I can do this. I’ve got this.  It’s totally in the bag! {wait, is that the bag that needs to be packed?!}

Anyone else need a pep-talk today? If so, I’m your girl!
