She started packing stuff away, but its not for winter-its for our next baby (still a month away from the due date). Since Sunday, when this "nesting" instinct hit, she has been on a bit of a food preparing rampage. In the 3 days since, she has made 24 loaves of bread, enchiladas and a large lasagna. On top of the all the goods that she has made in weeks previous, our freezer is stocked. Then add all the stocking up on groceries that she insisted that we do, equals one full house.
Add to that, all those little things that pile up on your to-do list that never get done and we have been two busy people. The home birth supplies have been gathered, the bench fixed to prevent Joel's fingers from being squished, bikes repaired (sorta), ink for the printer for those baby announcements, batteries bought for all those baby contraptions that suck power and a new wet bag for all those dirty diapers has been ordered.
We are now ready to have this baby, or a zombie apocalypse....whichever comes first.
Oh wait! We still need to: insure and air care the van, plant seeds for the garden, buy Mother's Day and May birthday gifts, finish the final bits of our purge and strip those cloth diapers. And last but not least, we still have bagels, granola and pizza to make. Hopefully not while she's in labour-especially not the bagels!
