We're ready for Shim!

A close up of the bedding.  My mom made all of this- she's uber talented.  Isn't it gorgeous?

A bunch of cloth wipes, some snappis, and travel punkin booty bits solution.
I have all the bigger size covers (small and higher) waiting in a drawer with the inserts for my pockets.  All my dipes are already stuffed and ready to go, so these are extra.  I can see my husband now, putting the Shim into a pocket with nothing stuffed inside.  And then being perplexed when it leaks......  I'm trying so hard to make this CD easy for him, so he'll continue being so supportive.
The top drawer are all his socks and baby legs.  I can't WAIT to put his baby legs on him!  The second drawer is full of bibs and burp cloths.
My prefold stash,  I have 2 snappis if needed. Snappies are what alot of moms use rather than the old school pins. I've been practicing the folds!  I'm sure it'll be much more difficult with a squirmy baby!
This bin has fitted diapers, mostly kissaluvs Newborn size.  It also has 3 xsmall thirsty covers.  Again, the design is to make it easy for my hubbie.  He knows that everything in this bin has to have a cover.
This is the bin of AIO.  (All in ones)  Some are pockets, which allow extra 'stuffing' to go in.  But to make it easy for Eric, the overall idea of this bin is that none of the diapers require a cover.

This is the bin his CD go in when dirty.  There is a bag inside, so when it's time to wash, the bag just gets carried to the washer, and the contents dumped inside.  Then the bag also goes in.  It's made out of PUL, which is the same stuff CD covers are made of.
The spray bottles have punkin booty bits solution, which is what gets sprayed on the wipe to clean Shim's bottom.  It's one of the more popular cleaning products for those who CD.  The little green thing that says "oops" covers his little boy parts so we don't get sprayed.  I'll let you know if that works or not.



The dresser with changing pad attached.  Of course the pad is made of organic cotton, with no phthalates on the outer part.  The cozy cover is also organic.  The three bins on the right of the dresser are all CD organizers.  I have the frames up, just waiting on cute Shim photos.

The chest of drawers, where the clothes are organized by size in each drawer.  Yes, I'm neurotic.  The cute sign says "I see the moon and the moon see me, God bless the moon and God bless me."
His first piggy bank came from his great grandma Sissy!
My chair to rock and nurse the little man!  We're still waiting for the rocking chair cushions to arrive.  I have my area set up beside me on the tray: a coaster for a drink, books, hand sanitizer, and lots of relaxing and lullaby CD's for the CD player.
The coolest curtain ever!
The sign above the crib, about a mother's love.  All it needs now is a photo of me and Shim.
His crib!
Yes, the closet is also neurotically organized.  By sizes, bin contents, toys vs. stuffed animals, etc.  I cannot function with organization.
38 weeks and 2 days......I'm becoming large and in charge.
Whoa- I'm not a fan of the side view!

Cute photos!

I am getting crazy about organization too... I would have finished this weekend if I didn't get sick...

Is your diaper pail a regular garbage can or did you buy a special one? I still haven't figured out what to use!

The bin is a plain one from BRU. The blue part on top snaps open to drop the dipe in, to avoid opening the entire thing.
