Forming a list in my head...

...of things to do before the baby comes. I'm thinking this might be a pre-nesting thing, lol.
Actually, its two lists. One is baby specific things (get carseat installed/inspected, pack hospital bag, etc) and the other is stuff around the house (cleaning, getting car registration and AAA dues in, etc).
The funny thing is that I was just talking with my bff and was all, "I'm going to do the carseat stuff in September...". And then it hit me. TOMORROW is September.

Re: Forming a list in my head...
I formed a list on paper and still haven't done half of it! LOL. We just got the car seat installed last Friday, I'm such a good procrastinator.
Hope you are able to get through your check-list! EEEK to tomorrow being September!!
I need to do a list too, I'm finally getting stuff washed and the dresser will be here tomorrow so I can put stuff away but we haven't installed the car seats or anything.
And I only have two and a half more weeks to do it!
Ahhhh I'm so freaking out that tomorrow is September. I keep telling myself I still have (almost) 7 weeks left even if baby is coming NEXT month
So much to do!!!
I know of at least one scheduled c/s in Sept (AmorX with her twins!), so some are even closer.

It hasn't hit me yet that I'm having babies in 22 days. SO MUCH TO DO!
I'm sure you'll get the basics done. For the rest...the babies won't know the difference.

This. I need to make my lists!! A co-worker asked when I was starting maternity leave (and I answered for the zillionth time - "when you hear a "splash' in my office or my Dr. tells me to") and when I reminded her of my due date she responded "so as of tomorrow you're on a one month countdown, huh?" I almost crapped myself.

Motherhood is not for wimps
We still have a month and a half. That extra half is the only thing keeping me sane right now.
I created lists just before the end of July. I went crazy. I had a "Things to put in diaper bag" list, a "Things to pack in my hospital bag" list, a "Things to pack in DH's hospital bag" list, a "Things to pack in baby's hospital bag" list, a "Things left to buy for LO" list, a "Things to buy - general" list, and a "Things to do" list.
DH thought I was crazy.
