It hit me today that I have EXACTLY one month before this baby arrives via scheduled c-section. Suddenly, May 21st seems like a reality and not some distant goal. My to-do list, which is MASSIVE, suddenly has an expiration date. Not much will get done after the baby arrives, so I’d better get in gear and get it done now. Which is much easier said than done at 35 weeks pregnant!
To that end, expect quite a few reviews and giveaways to be posted in the next week or so. It might feel like a lot at first, but I need to get those winners chosen and arranged before I head to the hospital! I also have a dozen projects/room makeovers to post as well; it’s going to be a busy month over here.
On that note… I’d love your help. I’m putting out a call for guest bloggers to fill some Making Lemonade real estate during my “maternity leave”. I plan to keep posting, but in case things are chaotic I’d love to have some of my fabulous readers weighing in on topics I know you’ll enjoy reading while I “rest up” (HA, HA!)
If you would like to be a guest blogger next month, here are some topics I think would fit well: baby boys, how to handle two under two, motherhood in general, fun projects/games for toddlers, introducing the toddler to the new baby, baby books you love, a grandmother’s perspective, favorite things for “baby bunchers”, and really any advice you can dispense. I’m looking for both practical advice as well as mushy, feel-good posts about the awesomeness of boys or expanding your family. (It IS awesome, right? RIGHT??!!)
If interested in being a guest blogger, email me at makinglemonadeblog at gmail dot com. If you’re not interested, then hold on because we have lots of interesting content coming your way. I’m so glad you are here and along for the ride!
Awww, the babe is due on May 21st?! That’s my bday!! I’d love to guest post but since I am just now pregnant with #1 I don’t think I’d be able to add much to the discussion. Best wishes to you for a quick & safe delivery (when it’s time). 🙂
Baby boys are awesome! I just hit 34 weeks, and I am with you – it is much easier to say you are going to do something than to actually do it (especially with a toddler running around, too!). Good luck with crossing off the to-do list!
I’m looking forward to reading those topics. I have a 13 month old and I’m expecting #2 in October. I need all the advice I can get!
Stopping by from SITS Saturday Sharefest. Congratulations on the baby. I bet May 21st is sneaking up on you real quick yet in another way can’t get here soon enough.
Hi There.

Stopping from Sharefest. Being a mom is great! Having my son was a blessing.
I am a Nana to a two yr old boy and we are expecting baby brother in July.
