Oh, that's right!

It's like I keep forgetting I have a blog or something. Life has been thoroughly distracting me, what with the baby being only 6 weeks away (hypothetically), a bunch of work to do at work and home, family stuff, and all kinds of other little things. So I'm going to do my favorite cop-out - a list!

Things I Still Have to Do Before Baby Arrives

• Find a daycare. I really need to get on this one. I called one place and they never called me back. That's not really moving them up on my list.
• Find a pediatrician. I've already started on this and have an appointment to meet one in two weeks.
  
• Get car seat bases installed and checked. There are two places in town (and it's a pretty big town so I'm a little dumbfounded by this), one which only does checks on Tuesdays from 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., and one which only does checks on the last Friday of every month. No one does it on weekends. This makes no sense whatsoever to me.
• Invest in a retirement account for Aaron. It's hard to get the man to separate with his money, even though it's not really separating, it's more putting it away for a little while.
  
• Buy a camcorder. We were supposed to have this by this past weekend. I think I'm going to have to start nagging.
• Get some meals frozen. I still have (hopefully) a little time until I need this, but I'm fully intending to have some ready to go so that we don't have to cook for a little while after she gets here.
• Finish getting what we need for the baby, including but not limited to: a place for her to sleep (a.k.a. a Pack 'n' Play), diapers, some clothes in newborn sizes (because everyone bought 6 to 12 month sizes for the shower), a stroller, an extra car seat base (important for bullet 3), and lots of other things I can't remember right now. Good thing I have a list!

So those are all the baby-related things I have to do, and would like to do within the next three weeks so I can be ready if she decides to show up a little early.

Also, can we talk about how much it blows my mind that after my next appointment in two weeks they won't stop labor if it starts? Because mind = totally blown.
