So Much To Do

I am feeling very overwhelmed with all that we have to do before baby girl arrives in July.  Kevin and I talked about getting a bigger place either before she gets here or soon after so I've started my search just to see what is out there.  There really isn't a whole lot of places available in our price range.  I'm hoping that one will become available soon.  We won't be able to stay here for long after she is born.  There is just not enough room in this house for our family of 7. 

We don't have any of the necessary things that the baby will need like a crib, car seat, stroller, clothes, bottles, baby bath, and the list goes on.  I just want to go out and buy all this stuff at once to just get it over with and put my mind at ease.  Kevin told me we still have plenty of time and need to space this stuff out but I'm very impatient.  We will need to do a lot of decluttering and moving things around so I'm slowly doing that.  This weekend I cleaned out 4 cabinet file drawers so that we can throw one of them away.  I think every weekend I'll do a little decluttering and moving stuff out to make room for the crib and a little dresser or something.

Picking out a name is one of the hardest things to do.  We do not have a name yet.  I have been looking but nothing has really stood out just yet.  I don't know if we want to stick with a "T" name since our first two kids have a "K" name and our 3rd one has a "T" name or if we are just gonna go away from that and maybe give her a name that starts with something else.  We'll see.  Hopefully we'll have a name picked out for her before she gets here unlike the other 3.  They were already here and we still didn't have a name.

So much to do in what I think in such a little time but Kevin will tell you the opposite.  I will stay positive.  We will be ready in time for her arrival.
