Tons of Planning

This past weekend I spent a lot of my time planning. There is so much to plan for this year! Here are some of the events we are looking forward to:

Moving! I am especially excited about moving, even though it means moving from a house to an apartment. I have decided to look on the bright side and enjoy the perks of apartment living. Some of these include no lawn care, less space to keep clean (I have been finding this more and more difficult as I become more tired and more pregnant), lower rent (more money for baby shopping!), and of course being walking distance to a playground! I love taking Peanut to the park! I am also excited to get away from our current neighborhood and house. I found our house in a rush so it wasn't all that we wanted. I am also looking forward to a fresh start to decorate!

Peanut's First Birthday! I can't wait until her Birthday! It is a day for her to enjoy and for me to reflect on the day that I became a Mommy. It is a day I remember in detail and will never forget. I can't wait to celebrate! I have decided that although she is only 6 months old I am going to go ahead and plan everything out in advance for her party. I will be due one week after her birthday and with the way things progressed there is a likely chance that we are expecting Irish Twins! I figure the less work for me to do that far along the better. I already have a theme and invites picked out. We will be doing Dr. Seuss' Green Eggs and Ham. I am going to get a copy to use as our guestbook so Peanut has a keepsake from her first birthday. I plan on doing a green ham "smash cake" and green egg cupcakes. I want to use the Orange and Green colors for decorations. For our invites I am going to make them myself and make green eggs and on the back it will say "Would you, could you in a house? Would you, could you with a Mouse? You're invited to Peanut's 1st Birthday Party! A Green Eggs and Ham party we will do, hope to see you half past two!"

The Arrival of Sweet Pea! I am very excited for Sweet Pea's arrival. I am trying to figure out what all we will need. So far another crib, a double stroller, another carseat, possibly boy clothes, and I am sure there is a lot I am not thinking about. Since the kids will be sharing a room I am trying to decide how I will decorate Sweet Pea's half. Peanut's half will have the Sweet Lulliby Bunnies. I am trying to think of something that will work for a boy or a girl. :)
