I couldn't even tell you how long a roll of toilet paper lasts in our house. And the fact that you're having to deal with the movers, two girls, and a newborn baby WITHOUT any spousal assistance... that's beyond impressive. I hope you set aside at least one of those bottles of wine. It's worth the pump-and-dump! xoxojuliclehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17651678100532130836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3248196462677139259.post-7621223559718828672009-06-25T10:19:17.421-06:002009-06-25T10:19:17.421-06:00I am interested in seeing the list of this year so...I am interested in seeing the list of this year so I can compare it to last year.

LOL<br /><br />The toiletries and paper products don't look like they last very long. I think about what we go through in a week and boy, that's a lot of stuff to shop and ship.<br /><br />You are my idol Jill!! I think I'm organized but compared to you, I look like a slacker!!! Good for you getting any weight over the limit paid by the moving company. That was a major screw up.<br /><br />Wishing you lots of patience, strength and hugs to get you through all of this with a newborn and 2 little girlies...by yourself!!<br /><br />Much love from NJ,<br />Sue<br />xoxo3 Peas in a Podhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01836773658497641385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3248196462677139259.post-47169316317053039612009-06-24T10:43:34.527-06:002009-06-24T10:43:34.527-06:00hahha.

I can remember running to the store almost daily (even after 3 kids) because I ran out of something or forgot something. No way would I be able to plan for the next year with a new baby!
