To-do (update)

A couple of weeks ago I posted a list of things I had to do before the baby so I thought I'd update it:

* Buy whatever is left from registries - Done!
* Arrange Baby Room - Done!
* Get/Set up Pack & Play - Done!
* Install Car Seat - Done!
* Get cars cleaned inside - Still need to do this
* Get animals Groomed - Still need to do this, may not be done
* Get blinds for baby room - Done!
* Wash baby clothes and bedding - Done!
* Pack my hospital bag - Done (except for last minute things like laptop)
* Order more contacts - Done!
* Write 2 weeks worth of sub plans - Actually found out I don't have to do this
* Decide, then tell custodians how to set up classroom - Pretty much done!
* Decide if I want to rent or buy a breast pump and do it (after BF class on 7/25) - Going to buy one, I need to call the hospital and order it (they sell them at cost!) worst case scenario, I can actually buy one while I'm admitted to the hospital and they'll send it up to me. I'd like to have it before hand though if possible.
* Buy another nursing tank or 2 - Done!
* Decide which pediatrician will be our primary one (group is already chosen) - Waiting until after baby is born since they don't all do interviews. We'll get assigned one and can just change it if we like someone else in the group better

So I've pretty much accomplished it all. We installed the car seat base in my car today but then it started pouring so we'll do Bill's tomorrow. I'll call to make an appointment to get them checked when they open on Monday.

Alright, I know I have 11 days until my due date so I shouldn't be rushing this but, baby, if you're ready to come out, WE'RE READY FOR YOU!!!

Becoming real

Today is June 17. My due date is August 17. Yikes! We had better get our butts in gear here!

We had our third birthing class last night and it was incredibly informative but it definitely made things feel a bit more real. The fourth and last class next week is basically just a tour of L&D. After that I'm supposed to know how to give birth and if I'm being honest, I don't have a clue! I don't know what to expect at all. I think the scare we had last weekend has really got me realizing that this could happen at any moment. Hopefully our little one stays put until he's full term but he could potentially come at any point. Yikes!
