Now that we are within a month of the big baby date, I decided to put together a little list of things to do before the baby is born; some functional, some fun.
- Day trip with the kids to the zoo or a museum (we have free tickets to both).
- Movie date with just me and BeAGoodMom.
- Movie night with just me.
- Let the kids stay up well past bedtime one night.
- Big house cleaning day.
- Finish up the open house projects.
- Let BeAGoodMom sleep in really late one morning.
- Sleep in really late one morning.
That’s all I can come up with so far and it sounds a little bit boring. What would you add to the list?

Add frozen meals to the freezer
Pick up TV dinners for the kids(don’t tell me you won’t use them)
Start birth announcements
Pack bag
get books and movies for the hospital.
Plan phone chain
DO something special with each child separately.
Spend time in the nursery with each child separately.
PANIC!!!

Good tips.
We already have the bag packed and the phone chain is pretty easy - call parents on each side and let them call everyone else
The frozen meals is a good idea. I’ll have to put a few on my grocery list for this week.
I am actually considering taking each of them on the big trip to the museum/zoo separately instead of all going together.

you also have to install the car seats and fix the bathroom faucet. But I like the rest of the list
Let me know how it goes.

That is true but we have more than one car that I have to put the car seat bases into.

oh, alright I will give you that one. But technically you only need one to begin with.
