July 2012 Moms

I'm bored. What's still on your pre-baby to-do list?

Mine mostly just involves cleaning house/organization and finishing packing things I don't need daily in my hospital bag.

There are a few nursery to-dos but they are all DHs.

Re: I'm bored. What's still on your pre-baby to-do list?

  • Really just cleaning - we're doing a DEEP clean this weekend, so then we just have to keep that up. Next weekend we're renting a carpet cleaner to have that done... then after that, hopefully I'll be having a baby!

    Hang wall decal above crib.

    Clean the house and try to keep it up until the baby comes.  If I come home from the hospital to a dirty/messy house, I'll be so annoyed. lol

    Pack hospital bag.

  • I'm 39 weeks Monday - I just woke up from a nap - I just have laundry (do it daily) for me, DH and our 2 boys - I don't want any laundry in the hamper when I come home.  I plan to make sauce from scratch today and chicken salad. And pick up some toys.  Maybe vacuum.  Other than that I'm ready to go baby!!!

  • 1. Clean the 2nd guest room 

    2. Figure out how in the hell to care for a newborn

    3. Find some sort of something to put above the dresser for decoration

    and 4. Continue to wait for our dbag deputy to call me back to install the car seat (been waiting and waiting and waiting on this one.  Every time I call the sheriff's office they say he'll call me; he never does.  Typical).
