Hi there! Is anybody still there? I know posting has been sporadic and kinda light lately. My life is quite busy! I am feeling a LOT of internal pressure to get things done before this baby comes! So, you can expect a cute update of Adele’s room soon! And Everett’s room too!

Today, I want to talk about baby positions. Did you know that both Adele and Everett were born in the posterior position? You can read more about it elsewhere on the internet, but basically it’s not the easiest and best position for the baberino – and it causes more pain (generally back pain) for the mama. And it’s pretty much all about the positions the mom is in during pregnancy (i.e. it’s 100% preventable unless it’s a bone/structural issue and maybe that can be changed too). So, I’m trying to do as much as I can to have an anterior presentation for baby #3.

If you find yourself trying to avoid a posterior baby too, get thyself to spinningbabies.com right away! And then, if you want to print it out to put in your planner or tape to your mirror or something, you will likely get frustrated because the website isn’t exactly printer-friendly. So, you can use the printable version that I made! Just to be clear, this is all straight from spinningbabies.com. This is not my work!

I printed these two per page (1/2 sheet each) and then used my Levenger punch to put them in my discbound planner (I got the Martha Stewart from Staples). No, this isn’t a sponsored post – Ha! But I did get a paper planner – and I love it! That pretty rubber band is just for looks (you could use it to turn right to a certain page, but I like to flip to the front – so it’s just for funsies).

Derm Dad said the 80’s called and they want their daytimer back. But I don’t care! It really helps me to have all my lists in one place on paper!

My main to-do is in the front.

Then I have various tabs. Here’s the spinningbabies sheets I discussed above.

I put my menu plans (and recipes) in the back because I use the plastic page protectors which stick out farther than the rest of the papers.

Do you like my menu planning printable? It’s free from elephantshoe.com

I’ve tried menu planning before, but never been able to keep it up for more than a week or two. But I think I can really stick with this system because everything is all together in one place. I love it! And I love knowing what’s for dinner and what needs to be done in advance.

Want to see the Chicken Enchiladas we had the other night? They are a family fav! Remind me to do a What’s For Dinner Post with the recipe if you want to make your own. They are sooooo good!

And, because baby positions and planners aren’t the most exciting things in the world, here is my little girlie on her way to ballet class. She says the other girls wear regular clothes over their ballet clothes and then take them off before class. I guess I am out of the loop on proper ballet class stuff. How did she get so big??? She is so cute I could just eat her up!
