So I was lucky enough to have my mom come out for a few days to get all SORTS of things done so that baby can come! I now have a [mostly] spotless apartment, stocked fridge, and empty clothes hamper! Whoohoo! But most importantly, my baby stuff is all organized and my hospital bag is almost packed.
Here is baby Emmy's "area":
Because we are stuck in a one bedroom apartment until our lease is up the end of April, we only have the small space at the end of our bed to work with. So, we decided on a play pen that has a bassinet instead of a crib for the time being.
And here is her temporary storage area! Since we have limited space, we decided to only have accessible the things she would be able to use as a newborn. Everything else is hidden til then. :)
MY LONG AWAITED DIAPER BAG. After anxiously awaiting its arrival for days and avoiding leaving the apartment as to not miss its delivery at all costs (kept RedBox movies extra long)... it finally arrived!!! And it is already packed and ready to go. I love it! Thanks Lindsey!
Also while my mom was here, I had my 37 week doctor's appointment. IF they induce me, the earliest would be March 7th, but to ease my nerves of going into labor without Logan being here, he's now coming home the first couple of days of March! Yay! But as if Emmy hasn't been difficult enough already, the doctor thinks she may be laying sideways. So cross your fingers that she either isn't sideways or that she decides to head down! We will know more next Wednesday at my next appointment, though!
I am so lucky that my mom was able to come and help me get ready. I know the apartment would not have been anywhere near ready without her help. And the carpets would not be so clean without her insisting I buy a new vacuum cleaner (that cost more than $30). I'M SO LUCKY!
Now all that is left to do is finish sewing my baby blankets and some burp cloths. Emmy can come in a week- after of course Logan gets home and my mom gets back. :) I'm ready!!!
