It's baby time.

and as of 3 minutes ago... I'm freaking out.

Like... today is my last day of work and I'm due in 9 days.  I had Griffin 7 days early.  Holy eff balls.

I also have about 5 unfinished blog posts that I'm too lazy to attach pictures to, for all of you who read this (courtney), we've already discussed and I texted you photos.  So I'm basically cought up.

I also tried to go back and see if there were any "tipping" points where I KNEW G was coming, but didn't know it... you know, to prepare myself?  Apparently no.  It was a complete shocker.

We finally have this (sometimes) figured out.  How do we go backwards?  I still remember that giving birth hurt like a mofo.  I still love G more than anything in the world.  How do I up that?  is he going to revert to being a baby when this kid comes?  Will I stop calling him "this kid" and start calling him Meyer?

It just doesn't seem real.  This pregnancy has flown by.  I am sad that with #2 you don't sit around and treasure it as much as with #1 (if you are a sub par mom like me, that is.) 

So, I'm either going to be posting like mad next week.  or not.  Because I have a baby.  Or because I'm chasing a 2.5 year old who is on spring break.  Or because I'm getting a pedicure.  And a massage.  And an epidural.

OMG, I just noticed how I spelled "brain" in my last post. That pretty much sums it up. Bring on the text-a thons!

Believe it or not, it's even better with 2. Wait till you see Griffin with the baby. Griffin is suddenly going to seem huge to you.

I definitely relished in the newborn-ness of Laura way more than I did with Alexandra because I knew how fast it went by. You will too.

Can't wait to hear the good news!!

SO excited for you. I worked myself up so much about having two, that when it actually came, it was a piece of cake. Promise. You find a new normal. A normal filled with sleepless nights, profuse sweating (at least for me), and twice the love. It's the absolute best.
