HOUSE/FAMILY: Giant To-Do List

In order to keep myself sane (ha) and organized (this part shouldn't be a surprise to you), I need to make a list.  This is my list of things that need to be done or gotten before the Meatball makes an appearance. I am slightly (and by slightly I mean a lot) feeling a little stressed on how we are going to do everything......

Here it goes.

1. Turn guest room into nursery
          -clean out closet
          -Joe build a dresser to go on the landing to store items in closet
          -buy crib
          -buy crib mattress
          -buy changing pad
          -curtains
          -find a way to make our recliner work in the nursery (color scheme wise)
          -create wall art
          -buy baby bedding (we have picked out some Pottery Barn Kids Harper bedding)
2. Turn laundry room even more multi-purpose (guest room, laundry, and pantry)
          -put freezer in the garage
          -rip out the built ins
          -rip out weird crown molding
          -rip out the multi shelves above washer/dryer that are too deep to do anything with
          -clean out the entire room (trash stuff, donate stuff, reorganize stuff)
          -figure out color scheme and decor for it
          -prime (painting over that red is going to take a while)
          -paint
          -figure out if we can install a murphy bed in the wall
          -figure out if we can put built in bookshelves around the murphy bed
          -build shelves in the pantry area
          -put up a rod and curtains to hid the pantry area
          -Joe build a small desk?
          -eventually find a rug
          -move our dirty clothes sorting into baskets/bins above the washer/dryer
3. build a recycling console
4. get rug for living room
5. buy baby stuff that we got rid of when we weren't going to be able to have anymore babies
          -tummy time play yard
          -swing
          -Diaper Genie Elite
6.  play around with the idea of putting our office and bookshelf area in our bedroom
          -if we move the recliner in the nursery then it leaves a big corner of our bedroom open
7.  reorganize garage to fit the freezer

Yup.  Giant list.  This is going to be fun......
