Baby stuff

We went for a walk this afternoon and I didn't have to many contractions. It was nice to be outside, 48* for a high, so much better than -30* a couple of weeks ago.

Things I need to do before baby gets here:
Get newborn clothes out of basement
Wash newborn clothes
Get Bassinet from mom and dad's
Plan a week or two of menu's and make sure we have ingredients
Wash pump parts
Call Jessie about swing, cloth diapers, jumperoo (won't need for a while), bumbo, and other stuff
Talk to Anna about cloth diapers
Charge laptop
Start packing my bag

Things I need to get:
Boppy cover
Changing table pad
New membranes for pump
Carseat
Nursing pads
New camera
Miracle blanket or swaddle blanket

Back at it...

Chris is at work, nothing like having a 6 day work week after time off. At least it is only a 1/2 day on Sat.

The kids are still in their jammies, but we are in the process of fixing that. Except I am here on the computer posting instead of helping them. Once everyone is dressed we will go downstairs, clear the newspaper off the table and start some school work. Abby is excited to get going because if she works quickly then she will get some computer time, and with 2 computers, I should be able to get both of them motivated and let them both have some time on the computer.

Eli already watched Letter Factory this morning while I showered, so he just has some coloring and a puzzle to do.

Reagan will do a couple of pages in his workbook and 1/2 a math lesson, coloring and a puzzle.

Abby has reading, math, handwriting and then we will see.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to all my friends!

We had a very uneventful new years eve, the kids watched "The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything" and then were in bed by 9, Chris fell asleep with someone when he was cuddling, so he made it back downstairs around 10:15 to find me flipping through the channels, mostly watching home improvement type shows. So we hung out for a little bit, and then went to bed around midnight. Very exciting!

Today we again have no plans. It is so nice. Chris is at work, so it is really a normal day around here. Tomorrow we will be going to Waserbahn with some of his family, the kids are really looking forward to that.

As to my list from yesterday, not enough got done :(, but we will continue to keep at it and at some point this house will not be a candidate for the cleaning makeover shows that I like to watch.


ETA: Chris got home at 1:00 for the day, so he only had to work a half day, and he will get a full comp day for it, so that is good.
