I think so.My c-section is scheduled for December 7th at 7:30 in the morning. That means I have 2 1/2 weeks left until my baby comes and I do not feel prepared...mentally or physically. The thought of having a newborn seems so foreign sometimes. I think its because Jonas is so young and I feel like I still have a baby. I feel like I just did this. My nursery isn't in order and my bags aren't packed. In fact, I don't even have a diaper bag. I got rid of all of my old ones because I wasn't anticipating needing one again for awhile. A part of me is panicking that I don't have my bags all ready to go and I don't have all the newborn clothes freshly washed. In fact, I don't even have a place for our new little guy to sleep because the crib mattress in on the toddler bed and my bassinet is in Idaho. Its okay, I know it will all come together in the next few weeks, I'm just the type of person that likes to have things done beforehand.
I've been getting these bursts of energy where I feel like I have to clean everything from top to bottom or hurry and finish all of my projects right away...yes I am nesting. The other night I stayed up until 1:30 in the morning trying to get a quilt finished that I had promised my aunt. The good news is that the quilt is almost done, but I still have two other sewing projects that must get done before I go to the hospital. Today I spent 2 1/2 hours in my basement moving and organizing things. Did it really need to be done? No, but for some reason I feel like my whole house has to be organized right now.
Anyways, I'll end my ramblings for the night. I should get to bed soon so I can get up at 5 AM with Jonas.....I wish that boy would just sleep in sometimes!

You are in our prayers. I can't imagine what it's like getting ready for number three. I'm still dealing with just one! I know it will all work out, it always does. You will be blessed with this new little one. Keep smiling and send that nesting energy my way, I could use some!!!!
Try to hang in there!! There's an end in sight and try to stay positive about the new baby thing. Just remember, you've done this all before and it won't be anything new! You can do it!! But send some of that energy and ambition my way, it's much needed right now! =)
You're awesome! I had the same feelings about getting baby stuff ready before Matthew! I packed my bag as I was leaving for the hospital! Good luck with everything!
We are praying for you...all! Can't believe it's that close though!
