Yeah...I heard it can really be a lifesaver! We are considering hiring someone to clean for us that first year after baby is born so I can really concentrate on my two kids and nothing else. That would be so nice!
Being a mommy has been a challenge and one that will only make me stronger! God grant me the strength and wisdom to be the mommy that I need to be!

That frozen meal thing is great! My church does that for people when they have babies, are in the hospital, etc. It was so nice when I had my daughter. And they did it again for me last summer when I had a softball injury and had to be on crutches. So helpful!

Hoping my mom or mother n' law will atleast throw me one. I have alot of baby stuff from last time but there are things that I REALLY need for this baby and sure could use the help. Things like a carseat for the baby,etc clothes if it's a girl cause all I have are boy clothes. Things like that!
I read about something really COOL online the other day. IT's called a (Frozen meal baby shower) where folks make up meals that can be frozen and put in your freezer for after the baby is born so it makes the transiton when coming home so much easier. They do this for the postpartum period. Im thinking about having atleast four or five people make up a meal the first two weeks and have them drop it off every other day. That is if you can find people willing to help make nutritous and healthy meals.

Hey ladies, I just wanted to get your opinions about having a baby shower and/or registering for a second baby. What did you all do? Talk amongst yourselves. :)
