Adams, party of... 4!

Yep, I am pregnant! Squee!!!

There are so many things I could write about this new babe on the way, coming April 2013, but I am focusing on getting the house ready (for now).  I'll save the emotional bits for when I have more time to reflect and get mushy. Just sharing a "get this out quick" moment.

I have a slew of projects dreamed up and I am itching to get to them. I have ideas for transforming J's room from a space for one to a room for two. There are plans for revamping the master bedroom to be more NB friendly. I am even going to attemt some things that never got finished before J arrived.

So, let me give you a rundown of what's in my head now:

     Create a "Crash Pad" in J's room
     Re-Organize J's closet for 2
     Clear space for changing station in the Master Bedroom
     Make a mobile for the new changing station
     Recover the Rock 'n Play
     Learn to crochet a baby blanket
     Finish sewing baby bedding (supposed to be for J)
     Create a "Napping Place" for the NB
     Make new wet bags/cloth wipes/pail liners
     Turn old T-shirts into baby gowns

That is just a sampling of the million things I have pinned for babies and this new one specifically.  I have about 9 months to get them all done and I am shooting for 75% completion attempted. 

If you have anything you think would be awesome for a new baby, link me in the comments. I'll try anything!
