Things for the Baby

This post is the list of things that I forsee needing for the little bundle of joy who will grace us with his presence sometime around July 13th:) If you are using this list to get him gifts please notice the lack of diapers on it... I have all the cloth diapers I need:) I can always use diaper wipes, I like the pampers ones:)


Clothes for all ages
Double stroller
Bottle brushes
Nursing Pillow (I gave my old one away:)
Pacifiers
Blankets and other crib bedding
Books (love books)


I have pretty much everything else I need including a car seat and crib, so no need to worry about those things... The one thing I wish I could have is a new rocking chair. Something that preferably has a foot rest and is comfortable enough to fall asleep in. BUT that is not a necessity since I already have one rocking chair.

HOLY MOLY!

It's been such a long time since I've blogged that I hardly know what to do with myself! I have so many things to say and do.

If you keep in regular contact with me, it won't be a surprise to you to know that I am going to have a little boy in July! Yeah!  I am so excited. In fact that is what I am going to blog about today. I have been looking up the stuff that I need for him and I just wanted to make a list. Mostly for myself but also for anyone who's been asking me to start registering for gifts. I'll make a separate post with things I need for Baby.

In other news, Chris is working in North Dakota driving a water hauling truck for the oil companies out there. Emma is walking (no, running) and talking up a storm. She still hasn't really graduated from baby talk but more and more of her words are sounding like grown-up words:) She says, "Down," "Mom," "Dad," and some of her colors too. All things that start with a b (like ball, balloon, blue, etc) are "Ba," and she even says, "Ba-pa" for her back pack! She loves the puppy and walks around most days asking for the "Pa-Pa" (which is also the color purple) and when asked what sound a puppy makes, or any other animal for that matter, she says, "Ah-Ah." She is growing up so fast:)





The new baby is growing fast too! He is 25weeks along tomorrow and kicks all day long it seems. We are due on July 13th, but my mom thinks he'll come sooner. I wouldn't be surprised if I went past my due date. We'll just have to see:)

I am just trying to keep up with everything. I have gotten a lot of projects done and I have been getting into that nesting mode so I've been organizing and re-organizing my house. I've got a lot to do for primary too. Being the song leader is the best calling in the church if you ask me! I really enjoy preparing the music and ways to teach the songs for the kids. I always have fun ideas and I only ever get to do about half of the things I want to!

Other than that, things are business as usual:)
