I'm really looking forward to the few days (weeks?) that I'll have at home to prepare before the baby arrives. There are quite a few things that I'd like to get done and just because I love making lists, I'm going to share the list with you.
- Finish reading Same Kind of Different as Me
- Read The Shack
- Finish reading The Happiest Baby on the Block
- Read Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child
- Clear out my DVR
- Catch up on my Netflix
- Go to Target to get last minute items for hospital bag
- Organize closet and put away most maternity clothes (while realizing that my old clothes won't fit immediately)
- Stock the pantry and freezer with ingredients for meals
- Make a list of desired meals and organize recipes
- Put together a good list of people to call when the baby arrives
- Begin working on big blog project
- Install car seats
- Get guest bedroom ceiling repaired
- Wait.
Does anyone have any good book suggestions or movie suggestions? It will be a long time before we can go to the movies, so my Netflix queue is in need of a good update.
Does anyone have a favorite recipe that they'd like to share? It needs to be easy and man friendly. Todd is a meat and potatoes kind of guy, so the recipes need to be something that he's going to like, too. You can email any suggestions to me at erakin11 {at} hotmail {dot} com.
Finally, would anyone like to volunteer to bring a beautiful order of sushi to me in the hospital?

Oh, and an Arnold Palmer, please!
