I'm Not the Best Blogger...

So I am not that great at blogging, as you can tell!  It's been weeks since my last post and I said I was going to start a series on mine and Joey's relationship.  I still plan to do that, but just not today!  Sooooo much has been going on.  I thought I would have a vacation when I had a few days off of work, but this has been a very eventful "vacation" for sure! Some of Joey's cousins are in town and have been moving and we have been helping them, though I am really not all that helpful at this point in my pregnancy.  My family was supposed to come into town last week, but things got crazy with them and they didn't end up making it. My sister went through a tornado on Christmas day and had lots to deal with as a result of that and we were busy here with a funeral for one of the pastors at church.  And of course then there was all of the family gatherings for Christmas and the New Year and this weekend 2 of Joey's cousins have birthday parties so the activities are not stopping!

On a productive note, Joey has finished the storage room he was building on our back porch, which means we have just over a month to get the baby's room ready.  It's going to be a very tight squeeze, but I think we can do it!  Joey went into full on "nesting" mode last night when we got home and decided it was time to move everything out of the room so he would be able to start, so now everything is in my living room!  Which stresses me out just a bit, but I'm trying to handle the total disorganization as best I can.

I alternate between being excited and being totally freaked out that the baby is coming.  In so many ways it still doesn't seem real to me that I am even pregnant, though my body is VERY aware that it is sharing with two what is usually only occupied by one!  There is so much I want to do before she gets here and so much I feel like i need to do to prepare, but I know she is coming ready or not!  In the end everything will fall into place.  I'm treasuring these last few weeks I have with just me and Joey and at the same time anxiously anticipating the growth of our family. 

Sorry to those of you who have requested pictures, I just forget to take pictures all the time!  I'll try to do better!
