We moved back into our house only 10 days ago and have been trying to get our lives back in order, unpack, and decorate. Since before our move, I'd been in a panic that we had nothing ready for the baby. I mean, I knew if he did come early that someone would take care of this stuff (Hi Mom!) but I would rather have it all cleaned and set myself.
Well, I'm happy to report it was a very productive weekend. We did 15 or more loads of laundry and made endless trips up and down the steps--And I am happy to say the stuff at the house is ready. Chase was baffled at my crying while folding all the little outfits he had worn (we brought you home from the hospital in this outfit! This is what you were wearing the first time you smiled! TEARS). Stephen cleaned the carseat and the swing and the bouncy seat, and some of the toys. Aside from the large "BRICE" over the crib, the nursery is ready to go- we'll move the BRICE letters to the boys' new room this weekend. On Sunday, I made a trip to Target to get all the little things for the hospital bag so we're not running around like maniacs before we go. And on Monday, I pre-registered at the hospital and got my TDAP shot (for free at work!-- Hooray for HHS!).
