My to do list

Below is a list of things that I or my hubby need to do before this baby boy comes in 35 days, hoping he's coming in less. But the more I look at my list I think I really need 35 days to finish.
~find a new home for all the items in the playroom (tv, treadmill, table, toys, etc. which will  soon be Ruby's new room)
~clean the walls and paint Ruby's new room
~clean the carpet in Ruby's new room
~paint Ruby's desk/hutch (already painted her dresser I choose a robin egg blue, its to die for)
~paint baby boys dresser(which is currently Ruby's)-green
~paint baby boys room which is currently pink 
~set up and decorate nursery
~recover rocking chair
~make baby boy some Sweet Ruby blankets and binky clips
~find diaper bag( any suggestions)
~clean the house top to bottom
~have car cleaned, and lubed
~make some freezer meals
~go through and wash Hudson's baby clothes
~wash carseat, and all other baby items-swing, bouncer, toys, etc. that have been in basement
~pack for hospital
I know there is more but thats all my pregnancy brain can come up with right now. yeah a bit overwhelming considering painting is a huge task and we have 2 rooms to do. But Trent said he'd help, so hopefully in the next week or two we will at least have the bedrooms ready. Yikes 35 days or less and little boy will be here. So excited and nervous!!!!

You are on the ball! I have 9 days left and I keep telling myself I need to make a list but i haven't! The most I have done is pack a girl and boy blanket a girl outfit and set aside a boy outfit for Brian to wash. I do think Ian in love with the giraffe blanket especially if we have a boy, and I will buy some binky clips as well, I've never had Amy but always wanted one

Yikes! That sounds hard. Especially all the painting. I'm sick of painting!!! I always have to repaint dressers when new baby's are coming. Thank goodness this time a friend gave me one that is already white! Well, I feel your pain, sista. I need to get all that done, too. But at least I have 65 days instead of 35. I think you need more time!!!!

Yikes! That's an ambitious list for someone who is NOT preggo, let alone someone that is 8 months preggo! I'd be happy to come and help too if you're in need of some extra hands. I love all of the cute things you are doing. You are so creative and talented! I wish I was more like you!

April, I can't believe you only have about 30 days left. I am so happy for you and can't wait to see your little guy.
I would be a so overwhelmed with your list, especially since you are 8 months pregnant. I can't wait to see Ruby's room, it sounds so cute. You have to post pics, if you can find the time:) Love you guys, you are in our prayers!
