Well, my time with just Eli is dwindling. I feel like I've got so much to do to get ready for this new little one to enter our world (and our ONE bedroom apartment!), but I'm still trying really hard to spend quality time with Eli. I can't believe our time together is coming to an end. Yes, yes, of course he'll still be here and of course we'll still have plenty of time together and I'll make sure to take him out on special Eli dates, etc.... but it for sure won't be the same! As a mom to one, I already have my attention divided 50 different ways and it's scary to think about how I'm going to divide my time ONE MORE way. I know we'll get into a routine and everything will be fine and even better than before....that there will be moments when Eli kisses or hugs his baby sister/brother and it makes every hard day disappear.... I just know that I'll miss the constant solo time with my little guy.
Yesterday I took him to Muscoot farm and he had the time of his life. The whole way there, he kept asking "FARM? Cows? Sheep? Pigs?" He was so excited. As soon as we got there, he took off running...for the tractor, the geese, the pig, the cows.... It was 80 degrees and super hard for me to keep up with my little sprinter, but I'm really glad we got to go there.
Tomorrow, my mom's coming up to spend memorial day weekend with us - yay! She'll babysit on Monday and then head back Tuesday. The next time she'll be up, it will be to see the new baby! I'm going to be working a lot this week, which is a total bummer... but necessary since I won't be getting paid for my maternity leave.
Ok - back to organizing!
