Getting Ready!
Yesterday afternoon was another OB-GYN appointment. I’m on my 32nd week of pregnancy to a much awaited baby boy. My morning yesterday was filled with preparations of the upcoming Diaper Bash on Aug 16, make-over of the house for the baby, Yoanna’s incoming Pre-K school on September & of course my blog business.
Wondering how’s my planner look like these days? Don’t ask me, you’ll definitely get bored as I discussed every detail of those post-it notes that come & go! Add up my daily list of “Things-To-Do”, even my husband didn’t realized how busy I am until he saw my very active daily journal.
Don’t get me wrong! I’m not complaining about my life. I just love being busy. Occupied with the things I want & love to do. Besides, those things I mentioned above was part of the deal when I said “I DO”, right?!
Although blogging was not really in the original picture when I was dreaming of having my own family, its just last year that I got indulged with this. It was only a hobby then I started to get serious as I experienced dollars coming in my account. So, why am I blogging? Besides the earning opportunity, it’s a great therapy. Indeed it’s a great way to express your self other than the regular diaper change & family meal preparation.
Anyway, as what I’m saying the three of us – hubby, Yoanna & I, were in the clinic yesterday afternoon. I felt quite relax lying on that bed while talking to my husband about the things I need to buy & need to accomplish before I give birth. As the doctor came in, she was again happy to see me in “almost perfect” pregnancy condition. My regular walk & slight tennis schedule was a great help to keep my body fit. Until the doctor said, the baby is in good position already. He’s upside-down which I’m really praying for, since I’m targeting a normal birth again. Then she told us, 40 weeks is ideal but on the 37th week it’s the start of the “normal range”. Ok, so it’s 5 weeks from now. It didn’t sink in my mind until after a while I was in my high tone – 5 WEEKS!
What a great deadline for a long list of goal!
- Our guest room is still in mess. My parents-in-law will be here by Aug 14.
- The baby stuffs are still in boxes & waiting for our hands to unpack. They are well rested in our guest room.
- Baby clothes were done – from laundry & properly folded in the dresser, but I haven’t packed our hospital bags yet.
- Yoanna need to complete her immunization before the school start, I haven’t called her pediatrician for another schedule since Hepa A shot was not available during our last visit. So, when?
- Diaper Bash invitations are still properly packed, when I got them from Hallmark last week. I still need to make some revision, since the invitation is intently for a Baby Shower not a Diaper Bash. They should be in the mail by Aug.8!
- Due to some babysitter issue, we weren’t able to pursue on that “Childbirth Review Class”. Instead I got this wonderful book which I know my husband will take time to read as each page has a very good illustration. I already forget when I got this in Barnes & Noble, all I know I haven’t read any complete chapter of it! I don’t think my baby boy will be excited to be with the parents who know only basic things about taking care of newborn child.
- I’m working on another 3 blog sites before the birth schedule. I’m still working on the designs of the 2 blogs & never done anything yet on the 3rd one. You think I can still make it?
- The last time I had my nails done was the vacation we had in July 4. Tomorrow is already august & my nails are in half-pink color now!
I should cut this now & proceed on my next listed thing to do.
