This past month we really started to kick in the preparation for the baby...
Jodie and Wally helped me conquer registering!! It was so helpful and fun to have them along to point me in the right direction and steer me away from the crazy things that I really don't need. Those baby stores can be a little overwhelming!
Another Craig List buy this month...a brand new Boppy still in the package with a cute soft pink cover on it! The cover is removable if it is a boy so no fret! I also got my clothe diapers! They are so cute! I ordered all different colors...some pink just in case! Joel thinks they are cute too, but wonders how cute they will look after the 1st blow out!
We heard reading books to the baby was a good idea because they can recognize our voices and it can stimulate their brain. I love children's books and have a large collection of them already so it has been nice to be able to put them to good use! So far it's favorites (measured by kicking) are "Daddy Cuddles" and "The Hungry Caterpillar"!
This month I had my 1st semi-scary incident. After getting a glass of water from the kitchen at work, I tripped coming up the steps and was not able to catch myself so I landed right on my belly! I was a little nervous at 1st, but the baby continued to be active and my mom said that was a good sign that everything was fine. Joel was a little freaked out too so I am now being much more careful...always using the railings.
Matt and Lori had their baby boy...Owen James on Tuesday, January 18!!! He is so precious and we are so excited for them! Visiting them at the hospital was an eye opener...this will be us in a little over 2 months! We both felt a little emotional thinking about the birth of our baby...it will be a very special day!
