I'm not sure what "normally" happens when a soon-to-be mom starts to organize things for her baby. Right now, I've been sorting our baby's clothes based on the size of each item. I have a lot of items of clothes, that are all nearly as cute as the next. I find the whole idea of organizing baby things to be a little comical. They are organized now, but I can see chaos erupting the moment baby arrives home. I won't want to do the laundry, so Ken will do it. And, he will probably sort the clothes according to some strange method that is different than what I sort. Who knows. Hopefully, the clothes will make it back to baby's room at some point, but I've heard babies wear multiple outfits during the day. Kind of sounds like what my husband does, though I think the reason for the changes is entirely different. Well, not all together different because he sometimes does spill things on himself. So, clothes are washed and sorted.
I bought the biggest box of diaper wipes that I could find. I was amazed at how many TYPES of butt wipes from which one can select. We were given a wipe warmer too. I think Ken might like the warmer enough to install one in our bathroom. Who knows?! Simple luxuries.
Most of my clothes that I had been wearing as "maternity clothes" no longer fit. Even the shorts that I have with the belly band that goes all the way up over the belly no longer goes up over the belly. Ken was a very helpful husband and accompanied me to a consignment shop that has a fair selection of maternity clothes. I did find 4 new tops that sufficiently cover my belly. I am a happy mama. I mostly stick to Ken's gym shorts during the day.
Our 34 week visit to the doctor went well. Not much to say here. 2 more weeks and another visit.
My sister Ashley is also expecting a baby. She is just out of her first trimester and is doing quite well. I am so excited for her.
I think autumn is just around the corner. I hope Ken and I can get a few pumpkins before our pumpkin comes!
