I have a tasty recipe from Martha that is a healthier version of shepherds pie. It contains acorn squash, a little potato, turkey or chicken meat, and some tomatoe sauce. Maybe some other small ingredients... I cannot remember what your husband's diet particulars are, but if that can work this is great. I have not ever made shephards pie, but this one is not the easiest - and uses up pans/pots. My whole family LOVES it though :)

That is great! I can't believe how organized you are. Sounds like you are going into the birth of this baby with a good state of being and state of mind. Way to go!

Okay, I have heard tons of people talking about swag bucks and how awesome it is, but it had NOT occurred to me that I could get free groceries that way! AWESOME! (I am going to sign up under a friend from college who has been telling me about it for months.)

So glad to hear so much of the pre-baby list is falling into place. I know that must bring so much peace!

Have you ever used MyPoints? I receive about $50 in gift cards per year if I keep up with it. I've been a member for three years now I think and I like it a lot.

Wow, I'm impressed with that before-baby to-do list! How do you *keep* everything in the freezer? Seems like I try to do that, and then there are days where I just can't make dinner, and break out one of those meals. Argh.

My husband is also on a crazy-insane rotation diet, though I think his is more restrictive than your hubby's.

And I haven't even gotten out the cloth diapers or carseat (5 wks to go, for me)! Good job!
