Packing our hospital bags for baby delivery. Kinda left this to the last minute, so hopefully we didn’t forget anything!
Any day now we’ll be making our trip to the hospital to have this baby! You know when you pack for vacation and it makes you even more excited for the trip? This sort of feels the same… like it's finally happening! When we forget about the long to-do lists of preparing for a minute, we really have to let the emotions sink in; we know that when it's time to head to the hospital, the next time we come home, our lives will have changed forever 🥰❤️
Anyway, here’s a list of what we’re bringing. Let us know if you have any other tips 🙂

- Going home clothes (in a couple of sizes)
- Diapers - (Gosh… we need to do a bit all about diapers! There are so many different options! So far, we’ve decided on EcoPea. Thinking about cloth diapers… anyone?)
