Booked Schedules, Contractions & Biting OH MY

Wow...things are starting to get a little crazy. My once free evenings and weekends are quickly filling up with all sorts of things... just a few notes on whats coming up:

Finish carpet and install baseboards in Caleb's new room
Move Caleb & his things into his new room
Purchase a toddler bed for Caleb
Purchase and Paint the Baby's new room
Paint and recover furniture for Baby's room
In September, Attend the Company picnic,Lockerly Heritage Festival, work a (ugh) Saturday for the UR's Bridal Show.
In October, My wonderful family and Church family are throwing me 2 baby showers, I have to work two Saturdays--the Sweetwater Festival and Holiday Traditions Cooking Contest.

Pretty much every Saturday through October is BOOKED! I am excited to have so much to look forward too. It should make the remaining weeks until baby go by a little bit faster.

On a different note, I am trying to take it a little easy. I have been having contractions for a few weeks now (not cool since I have 11 weeks to go). I know they are not labor contractions, but they are increasingly more uncomfortable. For instance today, I have had them all day long ranging anywhere from 30 minutes to 7minutes apart. They are still definetly irregular, but enough for me to know--I gotta quite trying to do it all. I find that my stress level increases the occurances of the contractions...so I have to find a way to de-stress. Which is really difficult--I have all these preparations to do for baby-financial & more, I have a monster of a sales goal this month, and Caleb continues to bite all of the kids in his class (no joke).

On a much more positive note though....I am so thankful for all of the people that have helped and continue to help me throughout all of this--my wonderful husband, my mom and dad, my church, and so many others.
