Two Weeks!

We will be moving to our new apartment in two weeks and I can't wait!  It still seems so far away, until I look around at everything I have to do before then.  Then I realize that I have way too much to do and not nearly enough time to get it done.  I would probably be more productive if M were here to help, but his ship had to go back out for another underway.  He will be home in time to help us move (we hope!), but all the packing is up to me.  My MIL is coming to visit and help me pack next week, and I am so grateful and looking forward to the help.  I had hoped to be able to get a good bit of the work done before she comes, but I doubt that will happen.  I had plans of having things organized and packed neatly so unpacking would be a breeze.  So far that is not transpiring: SJ has been quite a handful this underway.  I'm not sure if it's just because she's so much more alert now or she knows daddy is gone again or what.  She still is not sleeping well and does not nap for longer than 45 minutes, and she is seldom content to occupy herself for any amount of time anymore.  Finding time to shower is difficult, let alone pack up our entire apartment!  Please don't misinterpret me on this point though.  I will admit I have gotten frustrated on more than one occasion, but I don't for a single minute wish she wasn't here.  She brings more joy into my life than I ever imagined she could, and I had no idea I could love someone the way I love her.

I have been meaning to write an update for well over a week, but just haven't found the time.  There have been quite a few things I'd like to blog about, but I probably won't get to it until after the move.  There has been one topic that's been on my mind for a while, but of course now that I've found the time to actually put it into writing, I don't remember what it is.  I'm sure I'll be thinking of it as I try to sleep tonight, but it alludes me for the time being.  I also have a few posts to write about diapering, one about laundry routines and another about advice I wish I'd followed.  I'd like to write some reviews of different diapers if I ever find the time, too. 

And she's awake now, so I'm off again.  Enjoy this {rainy} Saturday!

Edit: Now I remember what I actually wanted to blog about, and I'm writing it down so that next time I have time to write I will remember my topic: Parenting Guilt
