Paranoid...

Well...the baby is on his way. I'm having contractions already at a constant rate...luckily they just aren't progressing me too quickly. So we could have a baby in anywhere from 2 weeks to 6 weeks. It really will be a surprise when he decides to show up. Just praying for the best. So we are working on getting our baby stuff all ready. We've made the final purchases and are now starting to clean everything up and put it all together. Last night we started putting the bassinet together and realized we were missing a part. Josh started talking about how he could rig it up with a piece of wire and I lost it. I started thinking about how the wire would snap and our baby would fall, or how the wire could poke out and scratch our precious little baby! It's official ...i'm crazy. I worry about every possible scenario. I guess I am just paranoid about being a mom for the first time. Basically....our fish don't stay alive so all we can do is cross our fingers for the kid.

The Modern Girl...

The other night I realized how modern I have become and how much the human race is moving toward  relying on technology. Luckily I have an awesome husband who still loves being a mountain man. If there was a disaster, with him we would have a chance of survival. So this is stupid, and I know you are probably all smarter than I am, but at least this is how my brain works haha.

The other night we were sitting in our living room and Josh said "It's cold out here". I was like "The thermostat is at 77. I would turn it up more but I don't want to pay a ton on our gas bill." Josh replied "We should go amish. We would be rich if we didn't have to pay power or gas bills." I then said (all too seriously) "Ya! We totally should! We could build a house out of sticks and mud and if it starts getting cold we can go collect the steaming cow dung and throw it on the sides of the house to keep the house warm." Josh just stared at me for a minute in disbelief and then said "...Or we could just build a house with a fire place in it......?" I felt really dumb for thinking of cow poop. But I just had a picture in my mind of when it's cold outside all the cow pies steam...so they would keep our mud house warm right?

Josh say's i'm thinking pre-primitive here. I guess this is just my mind these days. Our kid is going to be pretty smart from all the brain's he's stealing from me. Anyone else agree with my mud house idea or have I just completely lost it? :) haha.
