I must be nesting.lol I woke up this morning determined to be ready for this baby. My mom, may God bless her, went to Target yesterday and finished off buying all the baby clothes, burp cloths, receiving blankets, binky's, and such that we still needed, just because she wanted to. I am enormously thankful! Today, I took everything that has been bought for the baby and started washing it all. I also cleaned out the little two drawer bin that we have to put all the baby stuff in. Then Eric and I went to Target to buy the few items left that needed to be bought. First we tried all the consignment shops that we could find and then went to Target.lol We were able to buy just about everything on clearance today! What a blessing! I bought a new bre*st pump just like my old one, a bouncy seat, a foam baby thing for bathing, and a swing. We now have everything except the Maya Wrap in the house for the baby. I still need to wash everything but at least we have it all.lol I'm glad it's over, I am not a shopper.lol

It's seems so strange to have all this pink stuff again. I asked Eric to put the stuff in the dryer when we got home and he said, where'd all this pink stuff come from?lolol He also said isn't Genevieve lucky to have a little sister? I thought that was sweet. I'm not sure she'll think she's lucky right off the bat but I do think it'll be a blessing to her as she gets older.

We are all starting to feel better from this horrible illness we caught, except Jon. That guy has it rough. I was actually able to leave the house today, although the cough is still pretty bad at times.

Well, I guess that's it. Not too exciting but it was a lot of fun going through all that baby stuff.lol

Blessings,

Lisa

I always loved the last four weeks before delivering the babies. I love the whole nesting period - that last spurt of energy and getting everythign ready for the baby! I loved washing those sweet little outfits and onesies. Oh! Do I miss it! My baby just turned 7 - it feels weird not having a wee little one in the house anymore.
