I'm so not ready....

A Baby & Christmas



58
days and counting and I am so not ready for this little baby to come....It's funny, when I was pregnant with Ben I had lists and lists of the things I needed, the things I had, and the things I still wanted to do....and we had a name picked out from the day we found out he was a boy. Actually long before then, cause we were pretty sure he was going to be a boy. With Ben we also had a baby shower, and boy was it huge, there were over 40 people there and it took 2 cars to bring everything home...no such luck this time around. Unfortunately it's just not in the stars.

On top of not being ready for our new baby, I have Christmas to deal with on top of it. This little boy is due only a week before Christmas, so realistically I need to be ready for both MAJOR events by the first of December....which leaves me with 41 days.

41 days to get all the things I need for the new baby, 41 days to get ready for Christmas, 41 days....

I don't know if I can say this loud enough but I need some major HELP!!!!!

So here is where I'm starting...This post. This is now my Baby List, My Christmas List, My Things I need to do list. Though this post is for all to read, it's here for me to keep track, update and prepare. I need this list, cause at this point I'm quite a bit overwhelmed and really not sure where to start.

So lets start with the Baby...

  1. Stroller/Car Seat Combo
  2. Play Pen with Bassinet
  3. High Chair

  5. Crib Sheets

  13. Onsies, Sleepers, Outfits

I might can help on the name. How about Hudson? I love that name! I also have a ton of receiving blankets. Some never used if you want them. I could mail them to you.
