Yesterday I got this overwhelming feeling of anxiety that the walls in the house were closing in on me. The toys were taking over and I had no organization method and realized it was only going to get worse. I just feel like we have no room in this house for everything we already have or still need. I think I just needed to get out of the house for a little bit and clear my head so I took Harrison to the playground for about 2.5 hours and he loved it. Some older kids were playing duck duck goose and Harrison tried to join in, he had no idea how to play but just ran around with his little ball and laughed. An older dad said how adorable he was.
Daddy and Harrison started to put together Harrison's big boy bed today. Dad took apart the crib and moved that out for now. I organized all of Harrison's toys and packed some in plastic bins that he doesn't play with as much. I will move them to his closet and rotate them out. I want to buy another organizer unit like we have in Harrison's closet with all the baskets. Harrison's room is usually the tidiest room in the house because we are adamant about putting the toys away everyday in their respective baskets so it must work!
Daddy didn't get very far on the bed this morning before he had to leave to go to a golf tournament with friends, apparently having a toddler pull all the pieces of the bed out and run his matchbox cars and trains over them repeatedly while singing "five trains jumping on a bed" (how ironic) makes things take a little longer. I said to daddy that now he knows why I get nothing accomplished all day long. Almost impossible with a toddler tornado around.
Anyways I just have this feeling to purge and organize so it must be the nesting taking place. Our next house will have to have a play room above anything else, a place where I can put all the toys and shut the door when I don't want to see it.
You have been kicking a lot lately. Harrison felt you kick last night with his hand, I'm not sure he really knew what was happening but he kept saying "Baby kicked me". Tomorrow we will be 28 weeks and into the third tri-mester. I also have my glucose test tomorrow which most pregnant women say is awful but I don't remember it being that bad when I did it with Harrison. I think the worst is just waiting the hour after drinking the juice to have your blood drawn.
Harrison is taking a nap right now so I figured I had a few minutes to give you an update. We are getting there. 11 weeks to go!!
Love you so much,
Love Mommy
