oh yes....i am nesting! literally AND figuratively.

Well, we decided that we would put off nursery/baby stuff until after the holidays were over. So, with christmas vanishing in the rearview mirror and new years on the horizon, let the "nesting" begin.

If you had told me a month ago about this "nesting" phenomenon, i would have just brushed it off and forgotten about it, as i seem to forget about basically everything these days. But, girlfriends, let me just tell you....it is the most bizzare feeling.... now, when we moved into our new house, i got that itch that women get....the one that makes us beautify our homes, organize, personalize our spaces....

but this is just. so. different.

this nesting business feels more like an undeniable gravitational pull....a pure biological NEED to get things done and ready for baby. it is all you can focus on, all you can think about. i know it is still so early, i am only 27 weeks pregnant (6 months...going on 7) and i realize that i have plenty of time before the nugget's arrival, but logic isn't really applicable when this feeling sets in. you just have to go with the flow and get things done....or go insane.

so, on sunday, J and my father in law painted the nursery a lovely shade of light blue (much like the color behind the tree decals above) while i went shopping and bought a dresser for the baby. this week, the nursery furniture will be delivered, and i ordered most of silly little decorations for the baby's room.

we are excited, and i can finally relax a little bit....well...maybe after the furniture comes. :)
