More Baby Stuff

The blob is coming soon, hence all the blob related posts. I’m sure once he’s here it won’t get much better, sorry (well not really, it’s my blog about my boring life so I can write about whatever I want too).

The crib and changing table arrived on Friday, yay! So now he has somewhere else to sleep (he had a co-sleeper and a pack and play already, he’ll probably start in the co-sleeper (bassinet) and end up in the crib when I can’t sleep with him right next to me. The crib looks really nice and the changing table is decent. We’re still waiting on his dresser, it is suppose to arrive sometime the middle of this month, so hopefully it will be here before he is. Overall though his room is almost all finished, yay!

We had the breastfeeding class last Thursday, best class of the three we signed up for. The person leading it was knowledgeable, the info seemed relevant and useful to have, and overall it didn’t feel like a waste like the other two classes we did. Definitely a nice change. Oh and for once I wasn’t the one with the furthest out due date, though I was second furthest out (but there were 2 people there due 1 day before me and 1 due 2 days before me, so I really wasn’t that far out at all).

My last OB/GYN appointment went fine, I’m down to weekly appointments, eek we’re getting close. I get another Ultrasound on Thursday because they want to check on him and see how big or small he is at this point. I’ll be 36 and a half weeks then so we’ll see how he looks and such.

Otherwise, we’ve been working on the house. We put up some shelves this weekend, bought baskets for various places, tried to put up the new closet system and realized that the master closet butts the firewall, which is a pain, since now we need to find cinder block drill bits (fun or something). Dan also put together the baby swing last night and it looks good. So hopefully we’re mostly ready for the blob whenever he decides to appear.

In other baby news, we think we’re going to try cloth diapers. We both sort of wanted to use them from the beginning but got talked out of them by various relatives. We decided we still want to try and see how they work, even though everyone claims they are a lot more work. So we ordered a couple to see how they work, and figure if they don’t we’ll go disposable since we haven’t made a full investment in cloth diapers yet, until we see how they go.

Other then that not much new going on here, just getting everything ready for the blob to appear.
