Mr. Whimsy and I have a bunch to do before Baby Whimsy makes her appearance. I am 33 weeks pregnant so the time is really getting critical. I am going to try the accountability thing again and post my list here... Will update next week to see how many things are getting done - and hopefully some items will be scratched off the list (fingers crossed)

ReplyDeleteWill do, thanks Lauren!
DeleteGirl, you've got a lot to do! Luckily a baby only needs a bassinet, clothes, a blanket, and boobies or bottles for about 2 months. So even if her room isn't finished when she's here, just remember you have a month or two to keep on working. Just from your list the room already sounds wonderful! Can't wait to see it!
ReplyDeleteUggh, tell me about it Bobbi Jo! Another day down and the only thing that got quasi scratched off the list was sleep... I will get better at this soon! :) I am SO looking forward to seeing you and hopefully Sandy this Saturday!
