Extremely blessed

Alyssa's crib & dresser set shouldddd be here by the end of the week. Yesterday I decided to call and see what was going on with it (even though I knew they had till Weds to call, I was getting impatient). The man I talked to was super nice, and I explained I wasn't mad just curious, and getting super excited! I think he understood because he was super helpful and tried to get me as much info as he could. He said I will get a call by Weds to set up delivery. Which my friend said when they called her they wanted to deliver the next day, so Im crossing my fingers for Thursday! Because I realized woah, her stuff is coming soon and I am NO WHERE NEAR ready for that I was chatting Carah who told me to start washing clothes now...so I did. Ummm....all Im going to say is wow. LOL. I had went through my clothes the other days because I wanted to take the 6-9months and up out to let Sandra borrow..its the least I can do for all of the clothes she is just giving me. And lets face it, Alyssa doesn't need them just yet:) So I went through those and then put everything back in the box. Well yesterday I actually started laundry. It took 3 loads to wash all her stuff. LOL. Woah. So then while that was washing Jena & I got in her room to tackle that mess. I seriously wish I would have taken a before and after shot, Im not even kidding lol. We got the mattress out and put that into the shed to store. Then we put all the toys in bins (for now) because I had already sanitized them. We stacked the diapers, and found a home for everything...again for now LOL. Most everything is piled in the closet, and I have ideas of where I want things to go, but I won't know for sure until my dressers get here. I had a little bit of a tear fest for a second, as I looked around the room, which looked so clean & amazing....and just took it all in. This is really happening for me? It was really nice to get to do that with Jena, esp since Vicki & Carah are going to help me put everything away when the dressers get her. Luckily, I was a mess the past 5 months so that allowed a lot of work to be done & I got it do it with all 3 of my best friends. 

Yesterday morning I got a facebook message & a text from two friends LOL..telling me to message this girl because she had some baby girl items she wanted to give away. If you know me, you know I won't turn anything free away (unless I already have it of course). She tried to give me a VERY nice changing table, but my dresser set has one so I said no to that. Then she gave me a box full of clothes, and a mirror for the car, wipes case, toys, shoes...and such. It was really wonderful. But what really was like woah, that is amazing...she gave me an entire crib set, the mobil, sheets, bumper, skirt, wall decor & a hamper. Its superrr cute.. but Im gonna be honest...I still kind of want my monkeys=/ I took it off the ladies hands because she said she just wanted it to go away, lol. She didn't want to throw it away but she really didn't want it anymore and needed it gone. Its super super cute..and now I would feel horrible if I didn't use it. But part of me still wants the monkeys. Justin said we should skip the monkeys and use this one because it will save is 100+ dollars...but honestly. Idk if I can do that. I have gotten used everything...this is the ONE thing I really want lol. But I figured that I would put it up and see what I think, then decide. I still have a while! Hopefullllly someone will buy it for me at the shower then I can saw welpp...haha jk jk. No idk, I feel kind of bad if I take it and don't use it..but she really just sounded like she wanted to get rid of it and was soo excited to give it to someone lol. I just can't shake this feeling of wanting my monkey set lol. But I have a few people in mind that I could pass the stuff down to..and if worse comes to worse I could donate it to Jr Enlisted. One of my friends already said she loves it and if I dont use it and she has a girl she WANTS it. So that works out perfectly:) I was thinking though, the hamper has a flower on it...and I think it will sort of match with my monkeys so I could keep that regardless and not have to buy my monkey one. It was so awesome though because I asked the lady 'so how did this come about LOL' she asked if anyone knew anybody that was having a baby girl...and 3 people said my name. Which I have to say made me feel really awesome. That 3 of my friends thought of ME! It's deff a blessing to have such amazing friends. I am so blessed! I really expected to get pregnant & go broke because of everything I was going to have to buy..but I haven't even had a shower yet and I have a ton of things that people have blessed me with.

 Thank you, thank you, thank you everyone<3
