I went into the storage space in the basement and got out all of Ella's 0-3 month clothes. The last thing on my mind was needing to buy anything in the way of clothing for Olivia. Ella has gone through sizes where she's never even wore the same thing twice. More than half of the 0-3 was covered in yellow stains. What? I always immediately took off her clothes when she spit up and washed them. How was it possible that so much was still ruined? I suppose that when you have a baby like Ella who spit up 15 times a day, no exaggeration, this was going to happen. It doesn't make the blow any less disappointing to take.
So now I have a new add to my list.
1. buy some new baby clothes
2. wash baby clothes
3. wash and sanitize bottles
4. buy a pack of newborn pacifiers
5. wash sheets
6. get Amby baby cleaned and ready
7. find the other miracle blanket... best invention ever!!!!
8. put new car seat cover on
9. wash and put on bundle me light... its getting chilly already let alone 3 weeks from now
10. get a small gift from Olivia to the kids and one from the kids to Olivia
11. pack hospital bag... will be done night before I guarantee it.
12. put together new parts on breast pump
13. charge all camera batteries
14. get sheets and comforter ordered for downstairs bed. Parents coming in 2 1/2 weeks.
15. get shower curtain and bath mat for downstairs bathroom
16. buy nursing pads, bra and have ice packs ready!
I think that may be it. What am I forgetting? I just felt my blood pressure rise.

Now give that list to Dave, get a bowl of ice cream and relax! :)
I remember freaking out when I pulled out the clothes for my 2nd girl and they were yellow. Luckily most of them washed clean with a little help from OXY. Good luck with that list. I think my blood pressure also went up just reading it! Don't stress too much. The baby will come whether you're ready or not!!
I can't believe only 20 days!!! Yay! That OxyClean Baby stuff really works. It got all the yellow out of Kate's blessing dress and outfits! I just made the solution, rubbed it in, washed it like normal adding a scoop of the Oxyclean to the load and hung in the sun to dry for a day. Bam. The best stuff ever!
To answer your question...I just use the spray OXY and a scoop of the powder in the load. It worked great. When I have a really bad stain I use the shout rub on stuff and OXY together. I'll probably end up with holes in their clothes but it seems to work! Good Luck:)
Hey! I love your post, there are always so many things to do.
Bummer about your trip in Nov. We are totally going to be gone. Brad's Brother's wedding is the 1st. Maybe next time.
What is a baby Amby?
Good Luck with your list. I am with your friend, you need some ice cream...
oh my goodness! I'm going to remember to look at this list as we're getting ready! We still don't have her furniture or really anything for her room and even though we still have like 7 weeks its making me anxious! What is that blanket you were talking about?
