It's been awhile since I had a baby - and it dawned on me that I don't even have a bag packed. So then I thought I'd pack one...until I realized I didn't have a clue what to put in it. The only thing I can think of off the top of my head is slippers and my favorite pillow :dunno
I mean really - what else do I need? :giggle
Oh yeah - and the baby's homecoming out fit :giggle (Wait'll ya see it!)

cell phone
magazines
pajamas
socks
gum or hard candy
