The Baby Bucket List

Everyone has a list of things they want to do before they die (like skydiving or run a marathon). They call it their “bucket list”.

Well, I’m coming up with my “Baby Bucket List”. These are the five things people tell me I need to get done before the baby gets here or the things they say won’t happen again after he gets here. Unfortunately, I only have three weeks (or so) to get them done.

1. Sleep- it almost seems unfair that a pregnant woman doesn’t sleep much in her last trimester. Between the pee breaks, and the general uncomfortableness, Melissa isn’t exactly racking up the “Z’s”. Luckily, I’m sleeping like a baby.
2. Go to the Movies- This is probably the thing I’ve heard the most. Here’s the thing, we didn’t go to a lot of movies to begin with. This is a low priority.
3. Play video games- I’ve been told to kiss my Xbox goodbye. Well then, we’re going out with a bang. I’m playing around the clock… morning, noon and night. Or at least when Melissa will let me. (P.S. The baby is still hoping for a Nintendo Wii.)
4. Go Out on the Town- Hitting the clubs will be the hardest thing for me to give up. Sometimes I just feel like dancing and I have moves like you’ve never seen.
5. Hang out with the Boys- I actually did this on Friday. Guys, it was great knowing you but apparently I will never see you again.

I’m not really sure how many of these will get done. Especially, since I waited until there was just three weeks to the due date to start them. Oh well, how much will I miss these things anyway? Not much, right? RIGHT?
