Stir Crazy...

Well, I thought I was going to love all of the free time that came with maternity leave, but boy was I wrong! I mean I love the free time and not having to stand on my feet for 5 hours at a time, or having to rely on my co-workers all the time to essentially do my job (thanks guys!!!), but I am running out of things to do! I have done just about everything I can think of to prepare for Lilly's arrival. I have prepared our hospital bag, made my birth plan, set up the bassinet, washed the laundry, set up the changing table (and organized the diapers and wipes, etc.). I also, started several crafting projects. I started a rug that is almost finished, I finished the top of my hand sewn quilt, and started the design for the back of it. Pinterest has become an almost unhealthy thing since I want to do EVERYTHING I see on there. I built a little house out of Lego bricks. I also finished Breaking Bad (which is probably the only TV series I have watched where I felt closure at the end). I help Omeed with his YouTube channel. I talk to my fish, Jengo. I go on walks around the block. I am running out of things to do! Haha!

I am hoping that Lilly doesnt wait too much longer to arrive, because I am starting to go a little crazy! I am also ready to go to Disneyland again, but am too scared to go at the moment, because I dont want to go into labor there. No, I don't think it would be as cool as it sounds. Haha! I am, also, ready to be active again and start working out. I feel like a big blob since I sit most of the time. Yeah I go on walks and move around and get some exercise, but other than that I don't have the energy to do much else.

So, to all the moms out there, what did you do in your spare "you time" before baby arrived? I know I should probably cherish this "me time", but it is starting to get to me! Let me know! Now off for some more "me time", haha! Have a beautiful day everyone!!
