I am an accountant, and an equation just came to mind.
7 weeks or so until Baby D arrives.
7 weeks times 7 days.
Equals 49 days. FORTY NINE DAYS.
Ish. Um, I think our “to do” list is bigger than 49 days.
When Honey reads this, he might just pee his pants. I think I just dribbled a little bit.
Remember there is life AFTER the baby comes! Plenty of time for the to do list to get bigger….

Can you believe how time flies? 49 days, huh? So exciting. You really don’t strike me as the type to NOT get things done on time. Don’t worry, you’ll get your list accomplished. And if not…who cares? You’ll have your very own baby to snuggle:)

That’s right! You don’t have to have everything in order to have a baby that sleeps 90 percent of the time. I mean yes, it is nice to have it all in order but i doubt if our house will be done for our baby. Don’t stress Ange, it’s the last thing you need right now. Enjoy your last seven weeks of pregnancy EVER!

I just spoke with my friend in Australia last night, and she had three weeks off between her last day of work and her due date. Well, three DAYS later, along came baby Joel. She said she had about half of her to-do list done, so I wish you good luck with your to-do list!

Depends how you look at it, really. 49 days may not seem like a long time when you have a prepare your home and lives for a new baby, but in other circumstances 49 days would be considered a REALLY LONG TIME. Like 49 days away from your kids. Or 49 days of a diet. Or 49 days until you get a brand new car/house/toy. So it is all relative, really
PS. I’m sure you’ll get things sorted in time. You’re a type A, remember!

Wow, only 49 days until you cuddle your new baby!!!
I’m sure whatever isn’t done by that time won’t be too important, don’t stress!

Maybe it would help it to seem like more if you figured out the hours?
At least we don’t have the gestation of a giraffe (didn’t Amanda post about that?)…now that WOULD be too long=)
