I just wanted to post a quick update on how things are going in the "getting ready for baby category". Actually, I feel really good about where we are at this point. Here is the status on some of my projects!
*Rachel's baby book (just received the pics to put in and I have a few more to do as soon as I have some time during a nap or at night, that should be complete!)
*I have purchased a baby book and calendar for this little one.
*Rachel's room was painted, furniture up including bedding and she has been sleeping in her "big girl" bed for 2 1/2 weeks - the transition has been smooth thus far - keep praying! We actually have some things hanging on her walls, too.
*Potty training...well, we have good days and bad days but we're hanging in there. We've discovered that muffins and chocolate chips might be good incentive. I'll keep you posted.
*The house is purged and the storage shed is clean and organized.
*I have some new photos framed and placed.
*I sold several items on Craigslist - this is a great way to sell unwanted/unneeded items, go to http://www.craigslist.com/ to see if your city has one.
*I have all of my appts. scheduled that need to be taken care of before the baby comes - i.e. dentist, orthodontist, dream dinners (I just had this appt. and I'm excited that my freezer is stocked with some yummy dinners), hair appt., etc.
Okay, that is just a few things I've been able to accomplish. It may not sound like much, but when you have an active toddler around, there isn't much time for work (other than the necessary stuff like cooking dinner, washing the dishes, cleaning the house, running errands - you get the picture).
*Newborn and 0-3 month clothes and necessary baby items are washed and put away in the nursery.
So, from here on out what ever I get done will be a bonus! I do have some pictures to post so maybe I'll get to that in the next few days - we'll see.
