It's official.

I'm now a Stay-at-Home-Mom.

Wow. It feels really wierd. And I'm not sure I like the whole connotation that goes along with that phrase. But, that's what I am, and I've been getting ready for this for 8 months, give or take.

And it's a little depressing. I've worked and/or gone to school for as long as I can remember. I vaguely remember what Summer vacations were like, but it's been a while and I actually feel a little depressed and useless. Not to worry, it's all worth it and in a few weeks, I'll have plenty of things to do with a little baby to take care of.

But for right now, I'm sort of feeling a little panic at not having to be responsible for two entire veterinary clinics. It feels like I should be doing something.

So I found a website, www.flylady.org, and I'm starting to do that. It makes me feel more in control, I guess. And it's a neat way to get organized. I've never really had a daily routine for housekeeping, etc, so I'm going to work on that to try and get into a rythym before the baby comes. I'm hoping it will make keeping up with the housework easier once he's here. We'll see!

I finally got my first piece of new baby furniture, there are pictures posted below.
