How do you keep yourself distracted in the last months of your pregnancy (physical or on paper)?
Any of you women out there have any advice for a "Soon to be mom"?
Please leave me a note (in the comments area below this post) and let me know your favorite activity during the last few months of your pregnancy! I am all out of ideas! Not even shopping is working for me at this point.
People ask me how I am doing and honestly I don't know what to answer. I guess the best way I can put it is...I feel mildly agitated. I am not jumping out of my skin and I am not going insane (yet). I know the referral will definitely come in a few weeks but since we don't know when I am trying to stay calm and go on with my daily life.
We are getting very good at this "I don't know when, we just have to wait and see" game. We have been playing it for years now. That's why it feels like it's all a dream. Very little is concrete at this point. Everything is up to the CCAA. They could send out the referrals as soon as next week or as late as early September. In the last few months they have been sending referrals later and later in the month. For example in March they came in on the 16th; In April on the 18th; In May on the 25th; In June on the 27th; in July on the 29th.
Patience, patience, patience!

Waiting is SO hard... We're LID Feb 5th and I am barely hanging in there! Every day is a challange!
For us... we have a new house that is taking up much of our time. We bought the new house June 27th and have slowly been moving (lots of wallpaper removal, painting and new carpet before we move in). We still haven't sold the 'old' house ... so that's creating stress for my husband (two house payments - yikes!).
I think EVERY THING will come together by August 26th! Referrals will arrive, we'll have a buyer for our 'old' house and the new carpet will be in the new house.
See you in China at the White Swan!
