Just waiting

What do you do when you have less than 2 weeks until the baby is due?

It's not like I have energy to do anything adventurous or start any new projects. I've already cleared out and organized every closet and cupboard in the house. I've setup the changing table with all the newborn size clothes and even bought a package of newborn diapers. We do have a few things on the To Do list like get the baby swing from the garage and the car seat in the car.

I do have to admit (even though I'm anxious) I like the excitement of not knowing when the baby will come. It's so exciting to think and talk about how labor will start. :) (I know, I'm weird) I think I'm starting my nightly regiment of spicy food and walks around the neighborhood. The week leading up to Penelope's birth was full of creative spicy meals and walks. I don't really think it speed things along, but at least I'll get to eat some fun food and it motivates me to get some exercise.

I do like the spicy food so this should be a good week or two for me!

Sounds like you're already moving, but I'd up your walking to full on sprints! I actually had a friend who did that! She and her hubby went to a grassy field and she would run sprints! lol. Well, pregnant lady sprints, but still. I can't vouch for the spicy foods, but I think the moving helps.
