I am now officially on maternity leave, and just 34 short days from now, our third child will be born. (The only good thing about a mandatory c-section is that at least I can make firm plans and know exactly when the baby will arrive, unless, of course, she decides to come early.)
Now that I am through working, I can focus on our house, which is in sore need of attention. Anyone who has read this blog for any length of time knows that I love lists, so here is my list of things to accomplish in the next 5 weeks:
Clean our bedroom and rearrange the furniture so there is room for the baby.
Clean out our small dresser to make room for the baby’s clothes.
Clean our living room book case. The bottom two shelves where my 16 month old daughter can reach are very neat and full of her books. The upper three shelves are a cluttered mess, and now that she is growing taller, she is starting to reach up there. I can just see everything falling on her head.
Clean our entry way.
Write several freelance articles.
Make at least 15 freezer meals for after the baby comes, which should get our freezer meal total up to 20 to 25 meals.
Declutter the house. I am going to set the goal of getting rid of 200 items in the next 5 weeks.
List all of my son’s outgrown summer clothes on eBay and sell them all.
Most importantly, decide on a name for the baby!!!!
