Preps


Been having very strong nesting instincts since a few weeks back and had wanted to start on the preparations at home but the hubby keep pushing it back with excuses like too early, stuff get dusty and blah blah blah.

Finally I decide to ignore all these excuses 2 weeks back and started on my 1st load of washing which consists of both new rompers, burp clothes as well as some hand me downs for 0-3 months thereabout. As we are still uncertain on the size of BB2 yet, I have supposed that she will not be a big baby and should be around Zethan's size and birth weight.

The 2nd load of washing was done last weekend and we should have completed what is necessary or required to last us through the 1st 2 months at the very least. I was tempted to do more washing for the bigger size clothing since after confinement, I would be largelt left alone to care for the 2 kids thus leaving very little time for housechores or laundry for that matter. Well, I guess nothing is impossible and we will manage it when the time comes!

The hospital bag is 50% packed at this point of time (1 day shy of 36 weeks) and just this afternoon, got mom to come over and help babysit Zethan while we set up the baby cot and did some organizing in the kids room. So yesh it's another major item down!

Tomorrow will be another laundry day for washing of cloth napkins, cot bumpers, fitted sheets etc. Should time permits, will be washing up the bouncer, infant carseat, swing bed padding etc all the major & bulky items.

by the way did I mentioned that the July mummies are popping fast & furious like popcorns! Mid of june today and we are welcoming the 5th baby, pretty much a strong reminder to get things done FAST!
