To Schedule

I was looking for an old document and found this one. It is titled "To Do Before Babies" and was last saved on June 12th, 2006 - 2.5 weeks before Adam and Isabel were unexpectedly born early. Do you think all of this was done by the time they were born?

It is the last item that made me laugh the hardest.

I, too, am a list maker. Before Maya was born I had a similar list hanging on my fridge and got most everything crossed off.
I kept it up for months after she was born because it made me feel good to remember that once upon a time I actually GOT things done.
I need some new lists now that she is getting a little more independent. :)
