Ok, so we haven't gotten as much ready for Aspen as we should have by this point. I think this weekend we are going to try and Max's crib out so that we can at least have that ready.
I made a list of things we need and whether or not we still actually need it, lol. I should print it out and carry it with me in case I'm out at a store and can't think of something to buy. Luckily we have a lot of stuff left over from Max.
BABY
clothes- need more, but she's good for 0-3 months. So we could get those after she is born.
diapers- have none. We do have a couple cloth diapers and I would like to get more. We do plan on using disposables until she grows a bit, unless I can find some cloth diapers that fit a newborn well.
wipes- check
grooming tools- Check
baby bath- check
blankets- Check
bottles- Check, although HOPEFULLY I won't have to use them much!
pacifiers- Need
wash clothes- need
baby socks- need, anyone know where I can find plain white newborn socks??
baby carrier- need, I want to get a pouch sling for when she is a newborn and a Ergo or Beco carrier for once she gets past 4 months.
thermometer- Need, the one we have needs to be replaced.
baby wash- need
ME
nursing bra- Need, I think I'm going to check Target.com and someone suggested Bravado bras.
pads- Need.
dark socks- Check
another pair of black yoga pants- need
nursing shirts- need
breast pump accessories- might need, I should probably get my pump out and see if I need to replace any of the little parts like filters and such.
FURNITURE & OTHER BIG PURCHASES
crib- Check
changing table/dresser- Need, going today to look for one.
swing- Check
car mirror- Need another one. Can't think of where Max's is.
boppy- Need, somehow mine disappeared and ended up at someone else's house. Hmmmm....
rocking chair- check
carseat- check
stroller- check

Good luck - one big trip might be a bit of an effort, but I'd imagine it'd feel good when it's done!
Are you having a baby registry thing, like on Amazon? That might be useful for clothes and things, if family are planning on buying things.
I bought 3-6 month clothes when my friends had their baby. Might seem odd, but I remembered Mum doing that for a neighbour, and pointing out that parents would be inundated with newborn and 0-3 month clothes at the birth, and then of course the gifts tend to dry up (unless I suppose it's before Christmas or a parent's birthday). So I've gotten into the habit of 3-6 month clothes buying.
Good job, my friends' baby was big, and has grown out of all his clothes early. At 6 months, he's in the 9 month clothes! And Gem sometimes gets odd looks from strangers that he's riding in a pushchair or that she's breastfeeding him, because they think he's 1 year old!
You've got your list, that's the start - good luck getting it all!
