37 days to go - give or take - until Baby Addie makes her debut. (And for the record, we are almost positive her name will be Adeline. We're still searching for a middle name but Adeline sounds pretty good right about now.)
I had an appointment a few days ago and Addie is in place and ready to go. My doctor reminded me that it is still early but if she decided to show up now they wouldn't try to stop her. Scary, right?
I feel like there's still so much to do. I finally washed and put away her clothes and cloth diapers. The co-sleeper in assembled and ready to go. We finally got around to assembling our new gigantic double stroller. Lilly loves it... but I think that's just because we borrowed one of her dolls when we took it for a test drive.
We still need to install Addie's carseat... oh, and I guess we should try to find a car big enough to haul all of us around comfortably. We need to pack our hospital bags, make some freezer-friendly meals, buy a few last-minute baby items, go on a Mommy/Daddy date, get haircuts and figure out a back-up babysitter plan for Lilly in case I go into labor before Grandma Jackie arrives.
See? There's so much to do! But out of all of this, the one thing I really keep freaking out over is that we still need to buy snacks to get us through our hospital stay.
During our last visit, Aaron and I were alone at 1 am with this new little alien and we were famished. Our nurse dug up some sandwiches and we devoured them in seconds... but that still wasn't enough. This time around, I want to be prepared. Snacks are at the top of my list.
