This baby is coming out, hopefully in 11 weeks or so and not much sooner than that, but that part doesn't bother me. It will happen, I have no control over when or over most of it, and I know I CAN handle it because I have been able to do it before.
The scary part for me is the after - how in the world will I survive a newborn and my terrible 2 year old?! Today we went to play at the mall and he was behaving SO BADLY that he made another kid cry! Now, in his defense, he really didn't do anything too terrible, he was just hogging the slide and another little boy was going a little too slow and so he lightly pushed the little boys bottom to hurry him along and the little boy FREAKED! Alas, still not appropriate behavior, but when I took him over to apologize to the little boy the Mom wouldn't even cut us the tiniest bit of slack! Here is my 2 year old apologizing to her 2 year old and I apologized to her and she couldn't even be bothered to tell me it was ok. Geez!
ANYWAYS, enough of that rant...
The bottom line is I know we will survive it and we will get into a routine and all will be fine, but it's really scary none the less.
We did go play over the weekend and I got some great pics of my just about 2 year old!
I just love it that y'all let him drive! I don't think you will fully appreciate that until Gracie is here. Jake will be ever so helpful!
