Epiphany

I have come to an important conclusion. I am done being pregnant. I am finished. I want this to be over. I may not be fully ready for Bitsy's arrival, but I am fully ready for her to make her grand exit...entrance...whatever you want to call it.

Here's what's left to be done:
~I need to buy new nursing bras. After 3 kids (& the last one being nursed for 17 months) they are all shot. I need to go to Effin'bill & pick up new ones. That's going to have to wait until next week, but it is a necessity...and I think I ought to be fitted this time. Not sure the last set were really the right size.
~I need to finish packing my suit case for the hospital. It's mostly ready. I need to throw in a few more things, but that shouldn't take long.
~There are more clothes for Bitsy that need to be sorted & washed. That should happen this weekend.
~I need to dig out the pacifiers & sterilize them in case this baby actually uses them (so far #1 Son is the only one who really packed one around).
~I need to wash the kids "I'm the Big ____" t-shirts so they can wear them to the hospital to meet their new sister.

I have decided that none of this stuff is important enough to delay labor. Now that I am officially 37 weeks along, this can happen at anytime. And I'm OK with that.
