I love decorating for holidays and the baby will know from pictures that you celebrated! I want Halloween pictures!!! I would suggest take a trip to NB x 2 or more, haha! You're off work, just get here and don't worry about anything else :) perhaps for my super fabulous kid friendly Halloween party ;) for trip 1
This is a great list! I wish I could take more than 6 weeks maternity then maybe I could also accomplish a few of these :)
Looks like a fun list. :) Good luck!! I always struggle with lists...
Love the list and love the idea of making one too. I think I might have to do this myself, although I can already imagine that I won't even make a dent. You are so industrious. :)
Don't forget to sleep!! SLEEP!!!!
Holy crap that's one helluva list! I like "become pretty much famous" : ) OH! And don't worry about the poop post, once your babes is here, you'll have PLENTY of poop inspiration
What a list, you are braver than I. I pretty much sat on my butt and stared at my baby my entire maternity leave...all three of them!
