The Countdown

11 - Number of days I have left in the office
3 - Number of days until I leave for a work trip to DC
1 - Number of childless weekends I have left in Boise
0 - Number of diapers I've bought so far
Infinity - The amount I'll spend to fly back from DC if she goes into labor early

I have a short list of things to do before the "big day", including the addition of a bassinet and rocker to my  bedroom. I got everything arranged last night and it's starting to sink in!

Over the weekend I opened the bassinet, gave it a bit of Febreeze and let it sun-dry on the porch all day. There's a layer of tinfoil across the mattress to keep the cats off, but they've already learned to jump on it when they want my attention.

Of course, in the back of my mind I'm always thinking "She could change her mind..." even though I'm feeling good about the match. So I'm doing the bare minimum to get ready and really trying to stay sane.
