No Worries

All of my life, I have been a worrier.  Not a BAD worrier, but I would worry like crazy when something big was going on.  So bad, that my body wouldn't let me sleep.  I am trying to remind myself that worrying doesn't help anything.  Also, if I have a lot to do...I tend to think, and make lists in my head all night, again, something else that keeps me from sleeping.  So basically I haven't had much sleep lately.  THere is just so much going on that is keeping my mind going.  Nothing serious, just new things in life we have to adjust to.  I have always loved being organized and I would have planners with me at all times, even tho most of the time I had nothing to write in the planners, I never did much! haha  But now, my planner is BOOKED!  Almost everyday I have somethign that HAS to get done, or a trip we have to go on for Carter, or something.  I mean I like being busy, but some days its just too much.  This week, I have been at my folks alot learning their books for daycare so I can help them out a little. This weekend is Father's Day weekend, so we have to figure out how to fit in time with both of our dads before we leave Sunday afternoon for Addison.  Carter gets his helmet that next monday morning so we have to leave sunday to get there in time to put carter to bed before his BIG DAY! haha  So then all day Monday we will be out of town and then as soon as we get back, Derrick will more than likely go to work so that he can make up sometime. Then this weekend is my cousins first birthday, and possibly a second garage sale to get rid of all the stuff that didn't get sold the first time around. and then the next tuesday we go back to addison to get carters helmet fit, and then we go every two weeks.  THat alone will be enough to kill me! haha  Its stressful enough going somewhere for the day, hoping you have everything your baby couldn't possibly need while you are gone, but to go someone over night...that like a whole extra bag of baby crap! haha  but I am sure after we do it a couple times I will have my packing list memorized and we will be good.  I just wish gas wasn't so expensive right now...oh well.  I just realized this blog is about basically nothing, i just haven't done it in a while.  OH...I am thinking about giving Carter some cereal tonight, we will see...he is over 5 months old and i think he is ready.  I am also thinking about making my own baby food at home instead of buying it in the store, that should save us some money.  I will just add that to my "stay at home mom" list of things to do...it just keeps getting longer. but I love it!  Also....my SIL is due with her first baby in less than two months and well...it really could be any day now and I am just PAST excited!  This is my first niece and I am just super thrilled to meet her....i can barely stand it.  Karen, I know you are going to read this at some point.  After talking last night, I realized how far our relationship has come in the last few years and I am so thankful for you.  Everyday I feel like we are closer and I love our conversations...even if they are mainly thru text and email (thanks for understanding that I dont really like or have time for phone convos! haha)  Ok on that note...I have things to do before Carter wakes up! :)
