craftastic update... nesting?

Yesterday my mom told me I was "nesting". This could very well be true. My (and Joe's) to do list is so long these days and it is driving me crazy. All I want to do is check the items off and call it a day. Like I seriously have this crazy desire to cross the items off my list. Yes, this could definitely be nesting. It could also be the result of moving, the holidays, and a baby on the way that has created this never ending list of things to do, things to see, etc, etc, etc. I will say though that closing in on baby girl's delivery date, 4 weeks from tomorrow, has lit a fire in me.

35 weeks pregnant and feeling it. So. Very. Tired. All. The. Time. All I wanted to do during Carter's nap was crawl into his crib with him and nap - even when I'm not tired this sounds amazing. I love snuggling my dude. But I didn't. Instead I made a changing pad cover. Yeay! I think if I'd had more time I would have done two different fabrics to spice it up a bit.

see that pile of pictures in the background... that's on the to do list too

I also pumped out some button letter monograms for Carter and Mya. Lets hope her name stays Mya as these buttons are glued down in an M shape! For some reason I didn't take a picture of Carter's.

No matter what is on my to do list, or how pressing the timeline may be I ALWAYS have time for this.

Snuggling on the couch and reading books, chatting, or watching toons is one of Carter's favorite things lately. He loves to be close. Scratch that. He loves to be sitting on top of me with my arm around him. It is adorable. He will walk me over to the couch, sit me down, and then climb up on my lap to snuggle. Sometime we just sit there and chat and he is totally content. He's normally such an active guy so I make sure I really take advantage of these times. Lately we talk a lot about him becoming a big brother.

This truck is currently one of Carter's most favorite trucks. Sometimes he'll climb up on my lap, sit for a minute or two, then climb down, go find this truck, and climb back up to snuggle. Love him!

I also got out my real camera this past weekend. Although the pictures can't be posted yet as it will ruin a surprise.

Ok, I have to get off the computer and bust out the sewing machine and cross off another thing on the list: changing pad cover #2. Then off to bed!
