I have been so demanding lately. I am panicking. There is SO much to do and SO little time.
I want/need shelves in my garage - Shelves in the Spare bedroom closet and in Trevins closet- also the laundry room. I want the Garden done TODAY! Hang our security door. I want him to take the dressers down stairs so I can sand and stain them. I want the babys room painted and now I think I should paint the spare/Trevins new room before the baby comes. Weed killer sprayed in both the front and the back yard. I want to get an estimate by a professional for the concrete in the back yard and to figure out what we need to do to lay sod. Finish the window box for food storage. I would love the bathrooms and kitchen floor to be scrubbed and laundry all washed and folded at least once a week. The carpet cleaned, cabinets wiped down and organized... Most of this is on Eriks list... My list does include scrubbing and organizing.
Today's schedule:
6:30-7:30 Wake and gather stuff for hospital bag
7:30-8:30 Feed & Change Trevin...Do the dishes and clean the kitchen
8:30-10:30 Cleaned vacuum and scrubbed filters, swept, gathered up the garbage. Then Trevin and I scrubbed the Kitchen floor with scrub brushes on our hands and knees. It felt a little like swimming and scrubbing with a 22 month old helping!
10:30-11:00 Trevin got a bath and clean cloths and shockingly enough I too got a shower and clean cloths.
10:35-11:30 Went to Target to get Trevin a potty seat. He wants to sit on the BIG potty every hour...never has gone in the toilet but he is trying. ( I am not ready for all of this but if he wants to try I guess I am game too.)
11:30-12:30 Fed Trevin and put him down for a nap
12:30-1:30 Blogged and relaxed ate lunch
........
Tonight's plans
3:35 Erik gets home
3:50-9:00 Going to nursery to get the rest of the garden stuff. Drop off donations to DI. Visit Grandma and Grandpa Skinnell. Get Erik's hair cut. Visit his mother. Mix the garden soil. Maybe we will feed our son sometime in there too.
.........
I know fat chance all of that is happening tonight, but at least we have a goal.
I feel so much more pregnant than 33 weeks. I have a thousand things I would love to have done but when walking across the room I feel like I just ran a marathon. Seriously I am out of breath, my chest hurts into my arms and everything. Sometimes I can carry Trevin up and down the stairs with no problem but if I get down to play with Trevin and stand back up I think I might pass out.
Have I complained enough yet? Not yet? Ok here goes my list before the baby comes....

FOOD STORAGE plan
Ok I will stop there I am feeling a little over whelmed.
Here is the latest picture of our baby boy Lopez. He just would not coporate with the ultra sound guy. He had both of his hands over his face and then would turn his back to us. He is also so low in the canal that there wasn't very much fluid between him and the uterine wall so the pictures were just skeletal. After laying flat on my back for 45 min ( by then I couldn't breath and was starting to see spots) He got this shot. Erik thinks he looks like Trevin I think you can't tell yet.
Yep I called him baby boy Lopez. He still does not have a name. We had one that I thought I liked then...I don't know. We are talking Jonas Squire Lopez. We talked about Jonas with Trevin (Before the Jonas brothers were around.) I just don't know. It felt right and made everything exciting then I started to question and now I have no idea AGAIN. For those of you familiar with Weezer you will recognize the name from the song "My name is Jonas." I think every time I say his name I will start singing the song in my head. We will see I guess.
