Check, check, and check!

So yesterday I emailed home a list of things that need to get done yet. I thought the list was pretty long. But after further analysis, most of those things can be done by the end of the week.

Household/Misc.:
-laundry
-clean kitchen
-clean the floor in Clara's room
-make grocery list for freezer meals cooking session part 2

Projects:
-Finish painting in dining room-should be done by the end of the week
-Finish tiling in foyer-should be done by the end of the day today, grouting to follow
-clean garage
-stain door for nursery-stain is being put on tonight; polyurethane goes on when that's dry
-install door for nursery
-weed front flower bed
-plant new plants-they're not here yet, but should be soon
-take compost to recycling center
-paint over patches in master bedroom
-clean master bedroom-empty and remove all clothes baskets, clean out/reorganize dressers
-clean out vehicles-vacuum & detail
-hang wedding pictures
-shop for art for dining room

Baby:
*We just finished purchasing the last of our baby needs last night. We're waiting on them to come in the mail so some things won't be able to get done until they arrive. Things we are waiting for: dresser, swing, bottle sterilizer, book shelf, car seat base for Adam's car
-*sterilize bottles/nipples
-*organize dresser/put away clothes
-*change sheets on crib mattress
-sterilize breastpump parts
-put cover on changing pad
-*put changing pad on dresser
-*install car seat bases-mine can get done, but Adam's is coming in the mail from Target, hopefully by Monday
-*get car seat bases inspected
*We have a glider; Adam's mom found it at a rummage sale for $10. The cushions need to be re-covered, but she said the wood is the same color as our nursery furniture, so it works out. I expect the cushions will probably be done by the weekend.
*I'd also like to find a rug for in the nursery, but it's not something that NEEDS to be done right away. I'm picky and it's hard to find something I like that doesn't cost a fortune. :)

Like I said, the lists look long, but I don't think it'll take anytime at all to get stuff done. The hardest part is waiting for everything to come in the mail.

Thursday I'll be going over my FMLA with my supervisor. My last day of work is scheduled for October 28th, though I'm hoping I won't be here that long. Tomorrow is also 35/35!! 35 weeks pregnant, 35 days to go! Not long now before we get to meet our precious daughter. We're both looking forward to it!

And as a side note, I want to say good luck to my friends Katie and Carrie who are finding out today what gender their precious babies are going to be! I'm in a baby pool for Katie's baby and I do believe I told her I think it will be a boy. Carrie's I think is going to be a girl. :) I'm so excited for them! Good luck today, girls! Enjoy seeing your precious babes!
