Accalia and Cole played together with the neighbor girls for nearly four straight hours before they were done for the night. Everyone was exhausted and actually seemed glad to hear someone say they could stop playing. I have no idea where the neighbor mom was, but I'm assuming she was inside their house.

So, last night I decided to do something I rarely do in order to help me perhaps feel more in control of the upcoming months. I made a to do list of all of the things I want/need to do before baby's arrival. It didn't seem nearly so overwhelming once I actually saw it written out. I was also able to get through a pile of paperwork/correspondence that had been sitting on the dining room table for a while.

Today it sounds as if the neighbors will be around all day, and the only plans we have are for Accalia to go to gymnastics and ballet later in the afternoon. Accalia told me yesterday that those are the two classes she wants to take in the fall but that she doesn't want to take tap. I found that interesting since tap was her big thrill all last fall/winter/spring and ballet was the one she seemed on the fence about much of the time.

Well, since all of the kids are still sleeeping, I should continue trying to accomplish a few things.

I think if I made a list of everything I need accomplished I'd burst into tears! :) Glad it helped seem more doable. It's hard enough being very pregnant but with 3 other kids, it's so hard. Hang in there!
