Getting Ready for Baby #2

A couple weeks ago, we made a trip to our storage unit with all of our belongings to get some things for Baby #2. We figured, get majority of things out that we knew we would use/need in the first month and then take it from there. Luckily we didn’t have too much to get.

I have to admit, I starting to feel a little anxious about having baby girl here. I remember feeling this way with OJ. I just wanted them out so they would be here! Physically, I’m feeling okay, mostly tired due to the one year old. She’s sleeping fine at night and at nap time, but during the day, I want to get down and play with her, but I’m getting to the point where it’s getting difficult to do that.

Many people have asked me what I’m doing as far as nesting goes and to be honest, not much. It’s a weird situation for myself. Olivia has her own room here at my parents house, but since MJ is going to be with us in our room for the first few months, we haven’t really done much personalizing or buying for her. I’ve been so busy with OJ that I haven’t really noticed not getting things together for the next baby. There is a small part of me that is a little sad that I can’t fully nest, but there is a season for everything and I look forward to the day when I can decorate both my girls spaces. 

We did go shopping for a stroller the other day (you can find the video here). Out of our storage unit we got our rock and play, which was so great to have for OJ and I’m even more excited to have it for MJ. We also made sure my Solly wrap and swaddle blankets were washed and ready.
