Turnabout

So last year was the first time where we got a ton of those holiday photo cards from everyone with kids and I mildly complained to C about how no one sends personalized xmas cards any longer. I also commented on how everyone just put pictures of their kids and no pictures of themselves. (Then again, we didn't send any cards last year so who am I to talk). Come this holiday season and I suddenly had a strong desire to send out christmas greetings and no energy to actually write personal messages on them. And I'm sure next year we'll be sending out the photo card of just a baby picture on it or something since it'll take too much effort to get a nice picture of us.

Likewise, I had always thought it was silly of people to actually decorate and make a fancy nursery but after I told my facialist how we would just have plain white walls and nothing else in the baby room, she made it seem like such a sad thing. Then I went home and suddenly had these urges to actually decorate and pick wall decals and everything. So C just spent the last 2 days painting the room a nice green color and we have a nice wall decoration to put up. Luckily, he enjoys projects like these (I think - well he hasn't complained too much).

So yes I have become one of those people. I give in. Next I'll be making all the furniture and blankets in the nursery match or something crazy like that.
