So with baby #4, I should be a pro at this whole parenting thing, right? So why is it I'm already starting to panic a bit? My sister says the transition from 2 to 3 is the hardest. But right now, 4 is feeling a little overwhelming to me.
Maybe it is because, in essence we are starting over. I don't have a supply of boy things, although I do have a supply of girl things, and I just might be crafty enough to figure out ways to alter and adapt them to a little boy. My pack 'n play for example is a beautiful brown & PINK pattern. I'm thinking I can re-do the top edging, with something brown & blue, or brown & green easily enough, and a sheet cover will work for the padding. But then there are blankets and clothes to consider too. Now, I'm not freakish about having my kids identified in gender by EVERYTHING they wear. Using a pink or purple blanket at home doesn't bother me, but I don't want to deal with it out in public.
So..... I guess the money I was planning on spending on my yard this year just got reallocated to pay for supplies (nicety and necessity) for baby boy. I'm sure it will all be worth it, and lets face it, I really am looking forward to the shopping!
