I'm trying to work as much as possible before she arrives.
We got a Christmas tree!
It makes me very happy. There aren't any presents under it...but we've bought some early gifts for each other before Izzy comes: some new gaming stuff and prayer journals and a coffee travel cup. You could guess who got each of those things but you might be surprised. Haha. (:
We recently also bought Izzy's carseat and stroller! And reorganized all her stuff into the bookshelf for easy access!
I'm just happy because winter break means the finish of another semester, a time to earn more money for the family, and the creation of new life.
Eric has been so great. Not just for me personally but in terms of his own life and Izzy's life! He has sacrificed so much working long hours and still going to class and getting all that work done...along with taking care of me and going to ALL of my prenatal visits! He also takes care of a lot of our legal stuff: credit cards, rent, WIC and FNS, car check-ups/repairs/etc., and so much more. On top of that he still finds time to do dishes and laundry and he still makes the bed most mornings. Oh, and he cooks most of the meals (Or else I just eat fruit/veggies/cereal/yogurt/etc.). I could never thank him enough for all he does because there is just so much. Not saying I don't do things, too! I go to work, school, prenatal visits, some bills, budgeting, household stuff, etc. We share a lot of the duties but we just usually try to get stuff done while the other is doing something so we can spend more time together when we get free time. Still, we find time to ourselves and I am so thankful we can.
I'm sure that was long and boring but he really does a lot for me.
And I just didn't think I'd find someone I'd have such a balance with.
I really am lucky.
I wish everyone could have an EC...but I'm so glad he's my EC.
Anyway, cheers to everyone who has finals on their plate this week! Good luck to all and just try to get a little bit of sleep! The end is near! (:
