Yes, I go NUTS with my baby to do lists. Maybe you remember this post :)I figure I have 12 weeks or so to get this done. I know some of this may absolutely absurd but I really feel like it is necessary to have everything in its place before the baby arrives. I am sure I am about to drive Dh crazy with this list. This is not the final list though. I have stuff to add and I am sure some of this won't get accomplished but it is worth a try :)
