Re: To Do List and Accomplishments Check In

  • How many weeks until your due date? 1 week and 2 days. Yikes!! 

    What's left on your to do list? 
    1. Install car seat
    2. Clean diaper bag
    3. One freezer meal left
    4. Packing a box a day for our upcoming move

    What items are you working on this week? I need to wash the diaper bag. We are getting our washer/dryer delivered tomorrow and I'm hoping I can do it before the weekend comes. I'll also be working on everything else and we have cleaners coming tomorrow to clean our home. I'll just need to make sure it stays tidy until baby gets here.

    What were you able to cross off your checklist this past week? I got DS' room and most of the master bedroom deep cleaned. I just have a few things to organize in there. I also got most of the stocking up on food that I needed. And got a few boxes packed for our upcoming move. While there are still a few things to do, I feel pretty good about what's done and ready to have this baby if she comes before her due date.

  • I'm a little nervous too. Hopefully this little guy doesn't decide to join the party early.

    I'm 37 weeks today. Rcs scheduled in 19 days (not that I'm counting).

    I need to pack a bag for my older two kids in case I go into labor early. That's about all I have to do.

    I am cleaning my house this week. My mil is coming in a week and a half and I don't want her to think we are complete slobs. Between me being pregnant and not having energy and it being difficult to reach the floor and my dh needs back surgery and can't do much, our house is not as clean as I would like it to be.

    This past weekend we got lo a little turtle costume for halloween. My mil wanted to get my other two their costumes so she is bringing those. My Dd is going to be the girl from Harry potter and my ds is going to be jake from jake and the never land pirates. My ils live near disney world and the Harry potter theme park so they have cooler stuff there!
  • How many weeks until your due date?  Two weeks!

    What's left on your to do list? Need to install the base in my car (already in DH's car) and pack my bag.  I also need to CLEAN MY HOUSE!  We need to rearrange the furniture to find a place for the pack and play downstairs.  Other than that, I think we are doing ok!

    What items are you working on this week?  Hopefully the carseat and living room will be done this week...I'm putting off the cleaning.

    What were you able to cross off your checklist this past week?  Ummmm....install carseat in DH's car is about it!  I started packing the bag but not much more.  Oh!  I was wrong...I finished the nursery.  The pictures are on the wall and everything is in order.  All we need in there is to move the rocking chair out of our daughter's room and get a little side table but since LO will be in our room for the first few weeks/months it isn't urgent.

    I'll be visiting Walmart and Target for final items and getting an eye exam after Friday's OB appointment. We're putting together about half of baby gear on Saturday. The rest will arrive on Wednesday. I'll also wash baby laundry this weekend and plan my hospital bag. Maybe I can squeeze in the oil change and tune-up that I keep putting off. We'll see.
