Well, now I really feel like we might be coming down the home stretch. I have started the task of packing the bags for the hospital. The baby's bag is all packed, I just have to toss in the coming home outfits. I bought a boy outfit and a girl outfit over the weekend. Now, I'm working on my bag. That's a bit harder because I need some of the stuff I'll have to pack.
We got our stroller/car seat combo from Eric's mom and sisters last week. We are very happy to have that in our possession, now I just need Eric to install the base so I can get it checked out. We also got an extra car seat base off our registry from a guy I work with. Next in line - the pack & play.
I had an appointment on Thursday and the doctor said everything was looking good. She gave me some tips to keep water retention at bay. I had one bad day with that, but nothing since then. This week I start my weekly visits. And, tonight is our Newborn Care class. I don't really know what all we will learn at the class, but I'm looking forward to it!
I have a shower at work on Friday - so I'm hoping to get some more stuff off the registry that we really need before the baby gets here. There are only a couple of things left that are necessary - like a nursing pillow and the pack & play. So, next week I'll blog about all of the goodies we receive!! Sunday morning a girl from work and a friend in town are taking me to brunch. This is because my friend isn't invited to the work shower! That will be nice!
Other than that - not much new here... still pregnant!! Eric took me on a date Saturday night to a Mediterranean restaurant. My food was good, his wasn't. So, I don't think we'll be going back there. But, it was fun and needed.
You're looking great! Enjoy these last few weeks! I'm so glad you guys had a date night. I also hope you learned all the important stuff at your class, like how to clean poop off of the baby and yourself at 4 AM. :)
