September… September ALREADY?! Now I can say that I’m having a baby next month! Crazy!

I bet you could have guessed it, but most of my goals are baby-related for this month. I still feel like there’s a lot to do, and even with our third baby being another little girl, there’s always some shopping to do, stuff to organize, and things to prepare. Here we go!

1. Set up Kaya and Kaelyn’s furniture and transition them to their new room.

2. Choose Halloween costumes (we all know there won’t be time for this in October)!

3. Host Kaya’s birthday party.

4. Paint the nursery.

5. Finish taking out the old baseboards in the basement, install new ones, finish priming, and paint. Phew. Obviously I’m getting a lot of help with this one!

6. Go through the little girl clothes (for all 3 girls)- wash, sort, pack, and unpack appropriate sizes.

7. Put together “big sister gifts”. (Also known as: something to entertain them while I’m busy with the baby…)

8. Pack a hospital bag. I seriously did this while in labor last time. That is NOT happening again! I should probably also have a bag ready for the girls in case they have to be dropped off at a friend’s.

9. Write out birth preferences.

10. Take family photos.

There are probably a bunch of things I’m forgetting… but this is a start!
