I am not the best with making decisions. I'm am not saying that I make bad ones, it's just that it takes me some time to reach one. For example, we usually spend more time driving around thinking about what to eat than we do actually eating the food we get. This could be a problem, considering the baby could be due any day and we have yet to decide on a name.
This morning about 5 minutes to 6 my better half woke me up and said she was having some uncomfortable pains. I'll spare you the details and let you know it resulted in us taking a quick trip to the hospital. She was having some contractions, but they weren't strong enough or close enough to keep her there. I was trying to stay calm, but there was this little man running around in my head going, "IT'S ABOUT TO HAPPEN! ARE YOU READY?" over and over again. Let me tell you I wasn't. I'm still not.
I don't know if you can actually be ready for child birth. We have taken the prenatal class and have learned as much possible in the last few weeks...But that still doesn't mean you are ready. Someone told me once that if I was scared, I am ready. Well I'm a little scared. Responsibilities pile up and the money seems to do the opposite. My new job starts Tuesday so hopefully we're headed in the right direction.
We also decided that we are going to rent a duplex in town...Starting Sept. 15. The place is quite a bit bigger (4 bedrooms) and has a fenced in backyard with a b-ball hoop. Not to mention the gas money we'll save from making trips in town-Although it's only about 3 miles it really adds up. The location is only a few blocks from daycare, so it'll help me out a bunch when I am getting not one, but two little munchkins up and ready every morning! I can hardly wait.
