Staying awake when it's rainy

It's really hard to stay awake when it's rainy, especially now that I'm in the 3rd trimester. I am now staring out my office window, when I should be writing a paper for my boss. The rain is so heavy i can hardly see the block opposite me. Most of my colleagues are on leave, my bosses are attending a meeting outside of the officer and I am here wondering what i'm doing in the office! I wish to go back and sleep and also spend some time with Sara.

With the baby arriving soon, I wonder how much time I can really spend with Sara. I also have gotten the contact of a friend's cousin on how to ensure baby and rabbit get along. I thought we would restrict Sara to the kitchen but I really think it's going to be impossible, after she has enjoyed the freedom of roaming the house for the past 2 years. It's also not fair to her. Looks like we'll have to keep the house as fur free as possible, especially baby's room. V and I were talking the other day and wondered if we need to get the baby fence, not to shut out baby, but Sara! Ha ha ha.

Anyway, there are alot of adjustments to make when baby comes. We've only just cleared out one cupboard so that we can store her things, and we still need to move some furniture around because we didn't actually plan to have a baby so soon. Hence our study will now be converted into a baby room and V will have to be 'evicted' to the living room. I think he will like it there because he will be able to watch TV and surf the net all in one place. :)

Many of my colleagues have been sharing baby stories with me and I've also been reading alot of books and info on the net. Of course, there is still some apprehension that i'll be able to get the hang of breastfeeding and more importantly, ensuring that I don't spoil the child too much. Some of my friends take the soft approach with the child, because they don't want to scold or beat the child. I'm sure no parent wants to do that, but my experience with Primary school children is that it may not work well and some things, especially when it comes to building a values foundation, have to be enforced the hard way. I guess i'll have to learn as I go along, how to strike a balance.

Feeling a little better after typing out this post, but it's only 4pm! How am I going to survive till 6pm? Actually, it's not that I have no work to do, but I just feel like sleeping and have totally no inspiration to write this paper. I still have tomorrow to work on in it.. perhaps that's why I am procrastinating.

Baby!

Here's a 3d photo of my baby's face! She's got my hubby's nose and looks like she might have big eyes. I'm hoping for that! :P
