I keep thinking "Wouldn't it be great if I went into labor today?" And then immediately think of a bunch of things to do in preparation. So I'm going to make a nice little list that I will hopefully be able to "check off" by the end of this weekend (or today?).
1. Install carseat, get head pillow in place, and set up mirror.
2. Put in the car shades so baby isn't blinded for her first ride home.
3. Pack a bag for myself.
4. Pack a bag for baby girl.
5. Unpack baby things that are all boxed up and put boxes in garage (not garbage, just in case).
6. Get upstairs TV plugged in and set up (maternity leave should not = walking up and down stairs all day to watch tv while I feed baby and try to snooze, right?).
7. Put up paper flowers I got from our display at work.
Ok that is good I think... seems manageable right? Here's hoping ambition kicks in soon and I can do something else besides blog, facebook, and read real books.
Oh, and when I was at the doctor, the other two mom-to-bes had kindles. Call me jealous, now I want one!!
I should also point out that currently Mike is jacking up our deck outside (like that is perfectly normal to do on any given day) and yesterday he installed two ceiling lights/fans. Seriously?? I love how he can do everything. I feel lazy now.
just wanted you to know that i love reading your posts:) - thinking of you!
