Only my second post in the baby countdown, and it's late! I need to schedule blogging time apparently.
This week, I doubled a new recipe that I had never made before, which could have turned out badly, but thankfully we both really liked the recipe, so one more meal in the freezer for January! Here's the recipe: Chicken Broccoli Casserole (I actually put real rice in it, we didn't have any cauliflower on hand. And we added the cheese, since we're not on Whole30 right now.)
Tomorrow we're going to a local store where we can take a look in person at one of the crib mattresses we're considering, so if we love it, we might come home with the mattress, which would be a big check mark!
This past week, my MIL and I found some material that is going to be great for curtains and a crib skirt for the nursery, so I'm adding sewing projects to my to-do list... which might not be the wisest idea, but it seems like I have plenty of time right now. Time seems to be slowing down!
Matt and I are doing pretty well with our goal of getting all our Christmas presents purchased by Thanksgiving. We've also been wrapping as we purchase, so we've got a pretty good stash of wrapped presents ready for Christmas! It's been fun getting into the Christmas spirit, listening to Christmas music and wrapping gifts already.
Thanks to a gift from a friend who couldn't make it to the shower, I think our diaper collection is now complete! So now I just need to figure out the best way to wash them so I don't negatively affect the absorbency.
So, my to-do's now include:
Decide on crib mattress
Continue doubling meals
Buy all Christmas gifts before Thanksgiving!
Research and prep all cloth diapers
Sew curtains and crib skirt
Order last items from registry
That's impressive on the Christmas gifts. I only have few people but I need to wait a little longer. My grandmother has eye surgery, so she is completely done, wrapping and all.
