I am not ready!










Benjamin Elijah Graber








Daddy, Noah, and Benjamin






In 48 days I am having another baby. Am I ready? Not even a little bit. It seems like just the other day Benjamin was born. I was ready for him, his nursery was painted, I had all his clothes, all the necessary baby things that were needed. Do I have anything ready for Ella? Nope, nothing, nada!
I managed to keep my life pretty together when I was the mother of one. The house was almost always clean, laundry was usually done on a daily basis and meals were planned and eaten almost every night. As the mother of 2, I started to lose some control of the tightly ran ship! Clothes are washed daily, just not always put away. My house is not cleaned as much as I would like, and sometimes we eat whatever we can find.
My question to those of you who are mothers of 3 or more is this. How on earth do you do it? I am soooooo not ready, and sooooooo scared! I keep envisioning myself with this little sweet girl baby in my arms, and all hell breaking loose around me because I can't give enough of myself to Benjamin and Noah! I can't even begin to imagine what my already messy house will look like and how I am ever going to cook a meal for my family, let alone do laundry! It all makes me want to cry and wonder what were we thinking????
So, if any of you wise mamas out there want to share, please by all means, I am all ears! I need all the advice I can get!
