this weekend was spent cleaning up and tying up loose ends. the garage has been cleaned and i probably could put 1 car in it right now, i need to get rid of a couple more bulky items and then we’ll be in the clear.
the recycling bin is full again and i found a bunch of door levers that we had registered for our wedding. i replaced all of the interior door levers in our house over the weekend and now every door in the house looks new. the new levers are cool, but they don’t open quite as easily as the old ones used to. subsequently, i have ran into a door a couple of times expecting them to open.
we’re rounding the corner now and getting into the last month or so of the pregnancy. it’s time to start packing a hospital bag and installing the car seats into the car. i keep telling christi that she should start packing the bag and she keeps telling me that i should pack it. i tell her that she probably shouldn’t trust me to pack the bag if she cares about wearing clothes that match.
apparently, i am supposed to pack stuff for myself, as well. people tell me that i should bring food for myself. the hospital has internet, so i guess i’ll bring a laptop as well.

today is the day of the hospital tour. we were supposed to do it earlier, but there was some kind of conflict of plans and so we rescheduled it. prior to the hospital tour, we are supposed to fill out a bunch of paperwork. filling this paperwork out now will alleviate the need to fill all of this stuff out when we are rushing the hospital.
by this time, we are supposed to have found a pediatrician (we have) and are supposed to put his information in the paperwork. we interviewed two pediatricians and picked the one that we liked better. both were very close to us.
during this tour we are going to learn where to go, what to do, and hopefully what things we need to bring with us. i’ve already started my list of things that i am bringing. the list is short, but important: camera, video camera, phone, and charger. there’s still a bag of christi’s stuff that we need to pack. i’m not sure just yet what it is that we are going to be bringing.
so things are shaping up. the nursery furniture is pretty much all taken care of and we are in the midst of trying to figure out where best all of the furniture should go. we have a couple of things left to buy and then we should be pretty much set.
