Too Much to Do=STRESS

Life has been really crazy lately. There is so much to do and so little time to do it all! Andrew and I are officially moving out of our apartment on May 2nd, which gives us 2 weeks to finish up the inside of the house and pack everything! We've made lots of progress on some things: painting the baby room, living room, and dining room; but we still have lots to do: scraping wallpaper in our bedroom, painting our bedroom and office, and figuring out the kitchen. Our kitchen definitely needs updating but both Andrew and I agreed we would make do with what we have and update the kitchen in the next year. The cabinets aren't that good looking and are lined with mismatched/gross liners. I plan to find some sort of simple replacement to put on the inside of the cabinets/drawers so they aren't so gross looking. After we move in we will sand and repaint on the cabinets white and get new hardware which will make the kitchen look a lot better. Our goals for the summer are to get the outside of the house painted, maybe get a new garage door, maybe put in a small vegetable garden, and maybe get new windows. Not only am I anxious about getting the house done, but we have barely packed or moved anything!! I really need to get on top of that but I just don't have time. I am very busy with work, trying to keep up with pampered chef, and trying to get rest. It seems like all my free time is spent working on the house. I hoped I would be able to put pictures on here of our "house in progress" but I keep forgetting to bring the camera! Hopefully soon I will get some pictures up here!

On another note-I am 12 weeks pregnant and I keep jinxing myself. I go in phases where I feel great and food tastes good, but then once I say that I'm feeling better I get exhausted, sick, and then nothing tastes good. I really only get sick if I have lots of drainage-my gag reflex has been very sensitive lately! My belly is starting to get bigger and I am desperately searching for maternity clothes! I've gone to a few garage sales and left without anything. I had a $50 gift card for Target that I spent on 2 pairs of maternity shorts and a dress for vacation. I wore my shorts for the first time yesterday and LOVE THEM! They are so much more comfortable than my belly band and regular clothes! I have my first real doctor's appointment on Wednesday when we will for sure get to hear the first heartbeat! I can't wait!!!
