This is what my life has been looking like lately...trying to make decisions.
Obviously, picking out paint for Cecelia's new room is not what has been on mind lately but it's on the list.
Which yesterday I did however, make the decision to go with the lightest shade of pink and I'm sure it's going to be super pretty,which is the look we are going for.
However, some heavier decisions have been weighting on not only my mind but Nate's as well and we are coming to a crossroads with a lot of things in our lives.
A lot has to do with my school and the pressure that I'm going to be on for the next year and half and how that may or may not effect our lives but we are praying that the kids come out as unscathed as possible.
With Nate's crazy work schedule and my soon crazy school schedule I'm having small anxiety attacks about how we will pull this off with out breaking down everyday.
When it comes to the decision part of all this is whether or not I should just finish this summer with my one degree, graduate and get a job in an entry level somewhere (after baby boy is at least a few months old) and get our family back together and be able to start contributing financially as well as getting Nate to be home more. My family is just so darn important to me and right now I just feel like I want to do this and move on.
Now on the other hand, if I go on as we have planned and finishing with my two degrees and having more education which would provide more impact on a starting salary it can help my family just as much and get Nate and I to where we want to be as well.
It's really all that's occupying my mind right now and really I should be a little more concerned with the arrival of our son soon.
So I think we are going to discuss more and make the right choice for us, but I'm hoping I can start to focus more on getting ready to go from a family of 3 to 4.
So with that note here is a little something my sister picked up for our a little boy.
A huge vintage number 5 for the boy's nursery.
A little history behind the whole 5 concept is that he will be named Ralph (insert middle name here) Stanley V (the fifth). He will go by his middle name (when we decide on one) when he is born, even though Ralph isn't my first name choice for my son it does hold a great deal of meaning to my husband and the men who raised him as well.
So we have been collecting some vintage pieces for his room along with some other tributes to the men that will surround our little man.
And of course I can't do a post without a photo of our little fish!
This little girl is obsessed with the water and had a blast today while swimming and is currently passed out next to me on the couch snoring her little heart away. It makes me swoon!
Sorry for the downer part of the post but it feels better to get that off my chest. Now to get this little girl off to bed.
