scattered.

Scattered: (adj.) to be distributed or occurring at widely spaced and usually irregular intervals, dispersed and disorganized.

This is exactly how my brain, and thus my life feel lately. Not with anything major (other than the pending arrival of child #2), but quite the opposite actually, scattered with a million little things, that on their own seem trivial and small, but together feel slightly overwhelming. I'm going to chalk it up to the pregnancy brain, dj season, and mothering a 2 year old. But, excuses or not, I need to get it together!

As I've mentioned before I love lists, I love ordering my thoughts. However, my lists have even been scattered these days. I need to get organized, my days, my thoughts, my life! Any suggestions?

You think I'm exaggerating. Here is an example of my thought process this morning while running an errand....Need to consolidate because half of my grocery list is on my phone, half is on a scrap of paper... in my little purse, or was it my diaper bag, Ryan asked me to do something for some bride this morning, did I write that on the other side of the grocery list, email it to myself, text myself, or just plain forget it.....speaking of text I need to text Lindsey back. Oh Lindsey..think it's her birthday soon, should get her something, maybe I'll look when I'm downtown helping Ryan this am....birthdays, aww, got to get planning norah's bday party, what are we going to do, oh yes, I need to order the park, got to talk to my dad about that and see when he can help ryan build the park, the park, oh yeah, told norah we were going to go there after the grocery store today, wish I would have brought sunscreen and a hat with me, ugh, how am i going to handle two of these little ones. That reminds me, was going to go by michaels to get a scrapbook to start preparing for the new baby's baby book, i'm not going to do as every other mother i've ever talked to has and do a baby book for #1 and not for #2. I hope this baby feels as important as norah, what if she doesn't, what if I can't love new baby as much as norah, because i don't know that i can possibly have more room in my heart, i adore norah soooo much, she is my life. well, and ryan, oh yeah, need to call him back and ask him what I was supposed to do this am for a bride.

Well, there you go. See not exaggerating. Now here are some random scattered pictures, because honestly what else would they be coming from me.
