Ready or Not….
So now we ride the rollercoaster into “The Holidays”. I would be lying if I said I wasn’t looking forward to Thanksgiving, but I am also apprehensive about the drama I am almost positive will erupt between my mom and her brothers.
To add to it all, the baby shower is the next day and there is already a push & pull there. The invitations seem to have gotten at least temporarily lost in the mail, and I am nervous about the whole ordeal. I won’t lie. Baby showers don’t seem very “me” but at the same time, I don’t want to not have one. So I suppose I’ll help with the planning and look forward to silly games, and hope that the baby makes out with some good stuff.
Then onto Christmas, which normally, if my husband were deployed and I was 8 months pregnant, I would say “fuck no!” to hosting Christmas. But since I have been told that I am not supposed to travel after 30 weeks (which I already am), I don’t want to push it that close to the due date. So I will be decorating, cooking and “celebrating” Christmas right here! I am not particularly sure I am looking forward to it, but since it will only be my parents and possibly my brother, they better not expect too much.
