So I have been nesting something fierce lately. Poor Jess, he handles it all so well. For some odd reason, I feel the need to start getting things ready. Karl and Dao are sending baby packages soon, and I know that will really help, but for the time being… I am going insane.

My Dad bought us a CRIB!!! Can you believe it? He is the best. He and my mom delivered it today at about noon. It is still in the box and I plan on keeping it that way as long as possible, but just knowing the box is in the nursery-to-be makes me feel a lot better. He also bought us a swing, it’s super cute and I promise to post pictures as soon as we have it put together. It goes right along with the Winnie the Pooh Theme.

So now we have the crib, a swing, 2 cradles, some toys, a carseat, and some baby clothes (which by the way I cleared a space for in my closet and hung up, seeing them there helps me as well). So in all this craziness Jess has kept his head on straight. He appeases me by kissing my belly and talking to the baby. It’s the little things like that that confirm he will be a GREAT dad! (and anybody who disagrees can deal with me!)

Jess and I went to regsiter at Babies R Us this weekend. It was a bit awkward as the store girl followed us around the whole time just in case we had questions. But it made it difficult to discuss things and joke the way Jess and I like to. On top of that, this morning I got on to check out the registry and see what we had registered for, and there was nothing there!!! The girl had forgotten to upload our list! Oooohhhhhh was I mad! When we finished at Toys R Us, she had to call someone to ask how to upload it, and just kind of sat there. Then told us we could leave and she would handle it. Did she honestly think we wouldn’t find out? Come on. She had our phone number, she could have called us. But to avoid ripping her face off (which, by they way, I am totally capable of right now) I just spend an hour and half registering online trying to remember all the things we requested.

The next step is WalMart, that one should hopefully go better… Hopefully. Keep your fingers crossed.

We will be cleaning up the “office” and turning it into a nursery over the next month. Pictures will eventually follow.

On a side note, Dogs+Poprocks= not as much fun as you might think. We got bored the other night and were trying to take our minds off everything thats been going on. I ran down to Walgreens, picked up some PopRocks and Jess poured a few into the dogs mouths. Their reaction? Nothing, they licked their lips a lot and shook their heads a few times. Not nearly as much fun as we had hoped for. I have a video… I guess I should upload it. But don’t bother tormenting your dogs with PopRocks. It’s not as cool as you think.
