The only reason that I have any diapers for BellyBean is that she's the third baby, not the first.

I'm not expecting any help from anyone, no presents of clothing, diapers, or anything remotely useful at all, so it's not like I'm waiting for anything to happen.

I'm just miserable and lazy and trying to survive on Cream of Wheat, which is depressing enough on it's own.

No, you're not the only slacker, not even close.

i just got back from buying: laundry detergent for baby, a pack of disposables to get us thru passing the mec, two baskets to use as nursing/diaper change stations, and baby soap and oil.

Um... to get this done, DH took a sick day and went with me.

I AM EXHAUSTED!!! (we also got a TON of groceries, including a case of wine..... I feel much more ready now....)

I haven't done a lot yet either. I'm at 32 weeks last baby came 2 weeks early and I really wasn't prepared the one before came 10 days late.

Here's what I have done:

I sewed a diaper bag just need to put a closure on it but it's big enough to put the baby in!!!!!!!! Might try a smaller one too. I have washed some baby clothes friends gave me and a few things from the thrift store. I love .39 cent day at the Salvation Army. I still have more to wash.

Diapers- We had a fire 2 1/2 years ago luckily most of the diapers were in the one room with no burning. Also 2 friend gave me some diapers most are pre-folds but that will work too. I was hoping to sew a few cute diapers. I did get the material cut out!

Don't have a car seat yet. I need to make a list of things we need because my church is having a shower later this month. I had trouble with the Target near us my gift registry didn't work at the store so went home and made one but there is so much stuff we won't use, don't need so all it has on it is a Rocker/Glider for me and baby and a couple nogender onsies and sleepers.A lot of stuff you have to order over the internet.

Also we either need to get a twin mattress or a king size bed. 5 yr old still sleeps with us and she is a bed hogger so a twin bed by our queen might work better till we move all our girls around.

I really want to have a lot of freezer foods ready too. NOt done yet.
Find somewhere or thing to hold the babies clothes.
