Getting Ready!

I feel like all I ever blog about these days is my Liam, but it is so hard not to! He pretty much encompasses my life right now and he is not even here yet! I'm just going to ramble a bit right now and probably make a lot of incomplete/run on sentances, so forgive me. I just want to get a few things down.

For the record: Liam is at 39 weeks.

Do I want him here? YES. But I am finally getting really freaked out about not only labor, but bringing him home. Liam will be my life. And that is not a bad thing, just something kind of daunting to me. We will have a little boy to care for 24/7. It will no longer be just my husband and me, a dynamic I've gotten quit used to/love over the past 2 years. Don't get me wrong, I am excited. I'm also nervous.. which makes me realistic...

And then there is the whole caring for an infant, which is super surreal to me. I can't believe I have been entrusted with the care of a perfect little sweet boy. Crazy to believe that he wont be a baby for very long. He'll be a toddler and then a kid.. a teenager.. an adult someday. How do I make sure I instill in him all he needs to be a good, a smart, loving person? Big task.

I want to be all he needs. All he deserves.

Thank goodness human beings aren't able to recall their infancy! Ha! Hopefully Liam wont be able to remember all the shortcomings of his new parents who are learning.

Getting ready for our little boy! I have been cleaning like crazy! And when I'm not cleaning I'm resting and thinking what I need to clean next! I sure love my husband, but it is hard when I clean and then he comes and dirties the room I just cleaned! I guess he is just preparing me for when I have to clean up after Liam! I have also been going over all the stuff we have for Liam and making lists of all the things we still need. Which is actually a very small list! We had 3 showers and then we were able to purchase most of the things remaining from Target, Babies r us, and mostly Kohl's. Thank goodness for our Kohl's charge card! And thanks to Brandon's aunt and uncle who gave us Liam's crib and dresser! We have 95% of what I feel like Liam will need. Right now it's mostly just little things like diaper creme that we need. It's also hard to know what size diapers we need! We have some in newborn, some in size 1, and 1 package of size 2. I would buy some more now, but I'm afraid to get a certain size that he just doesn't need. So, more diapers will definitely need to be purchased. I've also begun to pack my hospital bag. I know I should have already done it. I think it's just my way of putting off in my mind that baby is actually coming at any time.

I will try to post some new pictures soon!
