I put them away in the nursery dresser all neat and tidy. Paul said it looks great! I also washed her changing table pad cover so that's all nice and fluffy and ready for her! I still need to wash her sheets, the large blankets, and the baby carrier cover. I think I'll do those in a few weeks.
I also had my second shower this past weekend for my coworkers and OC girlfriends. It was held at the Clubhouse here at our apartment complex. It was so much fun! And the chocolate-bavarian cake was delish. :) I'll post some pictures once I get them from Wendy.
So there are just a few items that I need to pick up to complete our registry list. I've got to go by Pottery Barn and grab the curtain rod, too. Paul's going to paint her room a light pink this weekend so once that's dry, I'll put up the curtains and rehang the shelves. Then, honestly, I think we are all set!
The only remaining things before d-day that I need to organize after her room is done is to get our hospital bags ready, finalize the organizing of my diaper bag, situate how I want her corner of the bathroom organized, and clean out a space in the kitchen cupboard for her things. I'm feeling more and more prepared with each passing day! All we need now is a baby! (Oh yes, and I want to write her a letter for her to have when she's grown up! Can't forget that!)
We have the first of three baby classes at Hoag Hospital tonight at 7:00pm. Tonight's class is called "Baby Saver" and it's basically all about baby CPR which is fabulous. The second one is this friday (the 16th) and it's all about "Baby Basics". I think they are going over the practical side of taking care of a baby (diapers, sleep, etc.). Then our third and final class is a week from today and that's on "Breastfeeding". I'll be paying very close attention in that one!
And finally, Paul and I think we have picked her name. But contrary to how we've been during these past 8 months, we are going to keep it a secret until we introduce her to everyone on d-day with her new name. I can't wait to tell everyone! Paul and I just had an epiphany this week (it's been on our list this entire time) that we really could see her with that name for her lifetime. We will share that her middle name will be the same as mine, "Rae".
That's all for now...signing off at 33 weeks and 4 days.
Love,
Andrea
