This weekend, we finally got some stuff done. Not only did Paul do about 6 loads of laundry (it’s easier for him to do the carting down to the machines and the carting back up), but he also assembled the baby’s dresser and took apart and trashed the old ragamuffin dresser we had been “storing” in the baby’s room. Now, other than a few random bits, the room is almost completely baby.
Inside is a big bag of stuff my friend Tricia gave me from her baby (cool stuff like little play things and blankets and stuff- the clothing is hung up and the millions of bottles are also put up in the closet) including her car seat. Also in the room is the large crib and mattress with the “optional” under crib storage drawer, the car seat bought off my registry (sans card, Babies R Us sucks at that so far), the disassembled jogging stroller, a baby rocking chair, a tall Tiffany-esque floor lamp, two random house chairs (?) and a box of stuff for the rummage sale we’re donating to.
After my shower this weekend, I hope to wash all the baby clothes and put things away in the dresser. We’ll have diapers and wipes and the pad thing for her to be changed on. I’ll be full term in three weeks (HOLY CRAP) so I promised myself I would have this stuff done by Halloween.
Time flies when you’re scared out of your mind, apparently.
