To Do...

Post birth (but I'm thinking probably not immediately), I must remember to ...
     
    The official 'cot handing over ceremony'.




    







  • Get out of the house
  • Remember birthdays and other celebrations - in particular Magoo's
  • Run (preferably without the presence of something resembling a Winter doona between my legs)
  • 'Ride' the Sushi train that has opened up locally this year
  • Drink a little something something with the first name 'sparkling' -  but that doesn't bear the surname 'water'
  • Trapeze - I'm not kidding
  • Buy a dip and NOT read the ingredient list before deciding whether to eat it
  • Stop thinking of my baby's size and weight in terms relative to fruit or vegetables
  • Eat cold quiche - with bacon even
  • Tie my shoelaces over and over
  • Make and devour my favourite potato salad - with the whole egg mayonnaise
  • Poach myself a runny egg (or better still, have someone else poach me a runny egg)
  • Drop something on the floor (just not the baby) and not ask Magoo to please pick it up for me
  • Get over this obsession with all things chocolate (& food in general)
  • Conveniently place the vacuum in front of Hubby's drawers or car or kayak - or somewhere he might actually notice it
  • Christen my maternity jeans as my new 'skinny' jeans - then I can tweet/post/brag to New Idea that I'm wearing my skinny jeans already
  • Get up from the couch/bed/dining chair/floor without a sound effects reel

  • Oh - and care for my children. Yes. Must remember to do that.
Have I forgotten something? 
I be reckoning I've got twelve more weeks of list making up my sleeve.

omg all I wanted while carrying my daughter was camembert.
Of course, once she was born I was too tired to chew.
Do we get tummy pics anytime soon?

I just had a great idea...I should set up a Sushi train at the maternity hospital....I reckon it would make millions ;)

We stopped for sushi on the way home after discharge and it was so good after 9 months of abstinence ;)
