Oh, I'm sore. I am must admit I'm a goof ball, to say the least.
The reason I am saying that is because today I started washing and ironing all the baby's things.
I washed 4 loads of baby clothes, blankets, sheets, etc and ironed 2 of them. I would still be ironing, if my back and right leg weren't killing me.
Before I started I told my husband "well, today I am just going to wash some of the stuff, so I don't get too tired". Have you heard that expression "do what I say, don't do what I do" - that fits me perfectly.
Sore and tired, but happy that the clothes smell nice and that soon I'll pack the baby's hospital bag - mine is already packed. Anxious, who is anxious?
Oh, I almost forgot to mention that my sister has bought her tickets to come visit and help me with the baby - I'm stoked!!! My mom passed away from cancer, when I was 8 years old, so my sister pretty much raised me, and I love her so much for that and for everything she has ever done for me. She is a mom, a friend and a sister, all in one.
And last, but not least a picture of the last gift from the virtual baby shower, it arrived here today. It's an adorable baby wipe case from Blissy By Brittany:
Have a great weekend everyone!
I am happy for you that your sister is coming! I know that means a lot to you! Now you can share all those first moments together! GREAT! X
ReplyDeleteEven though you are sore, I bet it makes your heart glad that the baby's things are washed, smell great, and ready for the packing. I am so glad that your sister will be able to visit and help you. I know that your heart will leap for joy just to have someone so near and dear (besides your husband) close by for a change. Have a great day! :-)
ReplyDeleteOh, you will have some great "sister time"! So happy for you! I am curious about this virtual baby shower, sounds interesting. I have never heard of such a thing!
ReplyDeleteHope the back eases up on you!

ReplyDeleteAlessandra, I am happy you think my skirt is going to turn out! I sure was undecisive on my square, but now I do like it! I think you need one for when you come out of the maternity wear!
ReplyDeleteLil' Phoebe is two years. She is starting to lose that "puppy-ness"!
That yarn is Red Heart Soft Yarn. I don't still have the wrapper to tell you the specific color.
ReplyDeleteIt touched my heart to hear you speak of the special relationship that you share with your older sister, because I too experienced it. We lost our mother when I was 3, my older sister was 9. Blessings be with you & your family as you prepare for your son! Be sure to let me know when you go to the hospital!
