I don't think I've mentioned this yet, but today is my due date...
AND it also happens to be my birthday. WEIRD, right?
Of all the 365 days in the year to have my official due date fall... baby chose today. Though, I'm pretty sure he/she isn't coming out in the next 16 hours.
Maybe tomorrow? Tomorrow would be good. Or Monday?
Seriously, I have every single item on my to-do list done, even the most boring non-essentials like:
• Reorganize linen closet
• Clean up bag area in kitchen (do you guys have this? the place where all the shopping bags go? mine was a hulking monstrosity)
• Clean out fridge
• Go through filing cabinet and recycle 80% of contents
• Vacuum and clean inside of car
• Go through clothes and donate a large portion to goodwill since I will clearly never where my old clothes again once I'm a mom.
umm.
What else? The only thing that got left behind was the honeymoon photo album that I really wanted to get together before the baby. But maybe it will be a good project for in between napping and feeding?
Today I'm going to go walk the stairs in Santa Monica for 6 hours and go to yoga. And then have a spicy birthday dinner? And go into labor?
We'll see.

And try not to wear yourself out walking stairs or doing anything too crazy! You'll need the energy for getting the baby out!

enjoy these last few days!
and happy birthday!
Happy birthday & best of luck! Seems like such a magical time for you & yours. All the best!

Happy Birthday and good luck! I was born 2 days after my momma's bday and it's always fun to celebrate together...
Happy Birthday. Sounds like your nest is ready, so relax, sleep and eat now, soon you'll be a mama. Enjoy.
Happy birthday!! and... good luck!! :)
I keep checking in on you....this is so exciting!! Wishing you a happy and comfortable birth. I can't wait to hear all about it. xo
I have been following your blog for over a year and I love reading all of your updates. happy birthday and good luck! I'm excited to hear all about the baby!
Happy birthday and good luck!!! : )
Wooo-wheee! What a day! Happy Birthday to you, and here's to welcoming your new little bundle soon!
Cannot wait to hear the good news of a sweet arrival...
Happy Birthday Kristina! And good luck this week!

Happy Birthday, I hope you have a fantastic day. Good luck with the birth of your baby, it is such an exciting time. I am waiting on my second to make it's appearance. I am 13 days over today and counting. Such a change from my first, he was 16 days early. They all come when they are ready. Enjoy this stage, they grow so fast.
Happy Birthday!! Hope you had a great day! (And fingers crossed baby decides to come soon!)
Happy Birthday! Enjoy it!

I've been thinking of and rooting for you all week lady. Go, go, go, go! (Or should I say push?)
And what's this about not wearing your pre-mom clothes?? I mean... maybe... but you're still gonna have some swagger, I feel it.

Happy Birthday! So funny...I had a similar to do list when I was prego and the *last* thing left undone was my wedding scrapbook. I had the same thought - I'll work on it while babe sleeps/naps. Yeah right! My little girl, Ruby, is 3 months old now and I still haven't touched it...that OR her baby book. I thought I would have so much more time than I do. She's a great baby but she keeps me so busy. Busier than I ever could have imagined. But I will say that I've never been more organized in my life than I am now. So, it was nice to go into motherhood knowing where everything is, etc. Anyway, good luck and know that it's okay if it doesn't all get done. :-)
Wish you luck - this is such a a special time!
Happy, Happy birthday!
Happy Birthday! You're in my (our - I tell my fiance about your blog all the time) thoughts this weekend! What a wonderful time.
And yes, we have a horrible bag area in the three inch space between the refridge and the counter/cabinets where our paper and fabric bags get jammed in. As long as the topmost stuffed bag does not breach the counter/eye-sight line, I'm ok with it.
Thanks you guys!!!
simplesong - that's so funny! 2 days later would be awesome at this point.
rennae- omg. you are a strong woman. good luck!
meg - oh i will still have swagger... but it might be a different sort. plus, won't I deserve new clothes after all of this?
emilyg123 - ours bags stuffed next to the fridge too. but now they are organized!
Happy Birthday. And hope your little one makes his/her arrival soon and safely.
Happy (belated) Birthday! I'm on my countdown (11 days to go) and definitely don't have everything done on my to-do list--very impressed. Best of luck!
Many, many happy returns, my dear! I hope someone brought you a balloon. xoxo
Whoa! Congrats and happy belated birthday. Good luck, mama. I can't wait to hear all about it...
Happy belated birthday!
And I really hope that bubs makes an appearance soon. I've been wondering all weekend if you had popped yet!
best of luck this week pretty mama! and happiest of birthdays to you!
Happy Birthday to you! And happy almost birthday to the baby.
Happy belated birthday!! I didn't see this post until just now, so I'm sorry it's late. Maybe baby didn't want to steal your thunder and come out on YOUR birthday... :)
It's SO great you finished your to-do list. I never got to mine because I had planned my month off before the due date to tackle it....and our girl came 4 1/2 wks early!!! She's 10 mths now & I'm just barely checking anything off that list. This is how little time you will have.....and yet it is blissful as any time you'll experience. Enjoy & best of luck.

happy belated birthday. my due date is my birthday too!!
