Dear Baby,
It is true that I have been feeling moments of nesting, and when these moments hit I tend to use the energy to knock down my massive check list of things to do. Both daily things, and my "Before Baby Arrives" list. Your dresser arrived yesterday and Daddy put it together last night. Your bookshelf is a mere sanding, priming and painting away from being completed. Your clothes that we've received to-date are in the process of going through the laundry and will be clean and ready for your use. For some reason this makes me feel better knowing the tags and plastic things will be off and the clothes (and stuffed animals) will be clean before you come home. There are just a handful of things left to do, but we finish our classes tomorrow night and I meet your pediatrician next week. It is all coming together, but it is leaving me feeling exhausted at the end of each day...which is no longer 10 or so on a weeknight but like 6pm and dinner is a real chore.
I'm thinking of charging a food entry to people who want to come visit and meet you. No one sees Baby unless they feed Mama. Whadda think? Sure it's shameless admission, but I'm not sure how I'm going to surmise the energy to make meals if I'm feeling this tired and you're still a part of me.
This morning your Dad told me that he scored a couple of tickets to the Colorado College vs. Wisconsin hockey game for Friday night. So naturally I said yes. I will apologize now if things get a little loud for you in there. Hockey is a PHENOMENAL game, we have two Wisconsin outfits for you already and you'll have to become a fan. Plus, there's something magical about watching hockey, eating nachos, and drinking hot chocolate or Pepsi. You'll see. Maybe next year you can hold onto some red and white pompoms too.
