This whole month has been a book of milestones for us as a family. Isabelle had her first go on the potty, Daddy moved with us to Newfoundland so there is no more of this pretending to be a single mother thing, Daddy got a job! Which therefore means I can feel more secure in going off of work! Christmas is JUST four days away. We got to see Abby on an ultrasound last weekend she is SO beautiful just like her big sister. Honestly I don't know how I could be so lucky.
On the other hand.. I am completely unprepared for the holiday season. Currently it is Sunday December 20th, and I am sitting in my living room staring at a half decorated tree. There has been so much going on, christmas party's, kids christmas party's, working full time, I am SO behind. Usually by this time all my baking is done, gifts are wrapped and I can sit back and sip some hot chocolate. This year not so much. I think I'll actually feel prepared for christmas when we ring in the new year. I don't know if its the pregnancy or the new location, something has me completely off this year.
So it looks like my fear of holiday crowds, is going to be challenged this week. My plan, midnight shopping at 24 hour walmarts. To all my family who follow along, if there was something you requested outside of walmart, I do apologize.
So the countdown is on, 4 days until Christmas, 22 days until my maternity leave from work and somewhere around 59 days until Abby's arrival. So much to do, so little time. Not to mention I have to plan a two year olds birthday party somewhere in between here.. SIGH. Until next time.
