This and That

The title says it all, just a bunch of this and that outlined by bullets!
  • I'm 22 weeks and one day along!  Oh how I love being pregnant but my anxiety about meeting this little one is making the time feel like it is going by one.minute.at.a.time.  Four months from yesterday we will be tranisitioning from a family of three to a family of four!  (I have a picture but it keeps posting it sideways-no idea!)
  • We finally close on the sell of our rent house today!!!!!!!!  I could not be more excited, this has been a long, tiring journey and I am so ready to be done with it.  Who knew selling a house could be as hard and emotionally draining as finding the perfect house to buy?!?! 
  • I am still reading So Long Insecurity and I am getting to the "fix yourself" part, if that makes sense.  The first part of the book talks about the different kinds of common insecurity which I needed to read, I related to so many of those scenarios.  What I thought was so neat was that Beth Moore actually pointed out places in the Bible where insecurity is illustrated, who would have thunk it?!?! The part of the book that I am at now is what I really need to read though, how do I fix myself or better yet how do I give it all to God, find my strength, and get my dignity back.  She is clothed with strength and dignity. Proverbs 31:25.
  •  The nursery-- the empty nursery is not so empty anymore (but it's not full either, haha).  We moved the changing table from Brax's room to the nursery last week and it seriuosly makes me smile.  Such a simple thing but it seems to make it all that much more real!  This was a hard decision and I contemplated just buying another changing table because I still use the changing table for Brax.  We use it for every diaper change and for getting dressed!  Once we moved it this weekend, I started changing and dressing him on the floor, which I guess works ok. 
  • Nesting- I have the urge to nest ALL THE TIME.  It's so early but I want my house spotless all the time and my new obsession is clutter.... I do not like clutter right now.  I feel like cleaning out every cabinet, closet, drawer, etc and just throwing stuff away! haha. 
Have a HAPPY TUESDAY!!!!

I've nested a lot earlier with this baby, too! It comes in spurts, it seems. Yesterday, I put Allie down for her nap and I couldn't sit still because I was thinking about how dirty my shower was. I had to clean it before I could rest! So excited for this new season for you guys!
