Baby's Cloth Diapers

Prefolds and nb/xsmall diapers and covers
Diapers 006

Small diapers and covers (the bb is a OS cover)
Diapers 007

Onesize pockets
Diapers 008

1 NB fitted (BubuBebe) and 3 Onesize Fitteds (goodmama, bsrb, and bububebe)

Plus I'm now waiting on another NB fitted from Butterfly baby. And I want to get more BSRB fitteds.

I'm sure this won't mean a lot to most of you, but I think they are all too adorable.

Pregnancy

Well so far this pregnancy has gone pretty well. I was pretty darn sick in the beginning but once that ended I've felt great. I'm totally nesting now and it cracks me up.

I'm 33 weeks now so only 7 more to go! I can't believe it.

John really loves feeling the baby kick and we talk to him often about my giving birth and us having a baby around. But who knows how much he understands. I'm sure there will be some jealous times, but at the same time John is such a lover that I know he will be a great big brother.

I will try to do better at keeping this up to date ;)

We have a fence!!

We are so happy, our fence is up! It makes going in the backyard so much more fun.

We've now started working on clearing the back half of the yard and it already looks so much better. John thinks it's so much fun to walk through. I can' wait until it's cleared and we can get a real swing set for him to play on and a sandbox or something.

FL visit May

Well a few weeks ago we went back to FL for our maybe final trip of the year :(

We had a blast. We went to the Urmson home first and spent a few nights...
The first day we went to a Suns game and John was great!
I just realized the pictures from that on on my moms computer not mine, well you can take my word it was fun!

We also went to the beach but I never took any pictures, sorry. John hated it at first so we figured why bring everything out, but after about 30 minutes of us talking to him he began to love it and now wants to go back. Figures :)

We also had a baby/diaper shower and it was a great chance to visit with the family.

For those who care there are:
4 Infant, Unbleached Indian Prefolds
12 Small, Unbleached Indian Prefolds from green mountain
XS Thirsties Cover
Small Prorap Cover
Small Thirsties Cover
3 Bumgenius Onesize Pocket diapers
1 Fuzzi Bunz Onesize Pocket Diaper
1 Blueberry Orange Minkee Onseize Pocket Diaper
2 Thirsties Hemp inserts - Small
and a new Pail Liner (for a larger pail)

I've ordered a lot more, but this is what I "got" from the shower.


After the shower we went to stay with the Majoros and also had a blast. Sadly it rained almost the whole time we were there, but John loves seeing his cousins.
We went to the movies one night to see Star Trek and John stayed with Sarah (Evan's sister) and her family. And we later found out that he was not happy that we were gone. As John will tell you, "I screamed and screamed and cried because I could not see my mommy". He still reminds me daily of this :(...oh I'm going to miss my little man while I'm at the hospital.

FL visit in March

At least I think it was March, ha!

Here are a few pictures with updates:

John LOVES a sand pile that is at my parents house. When we were there on this trip it was his favorite place to play. I swear one day he played there for hours, and for those of you who have spent time with him will know that he usually won't stay on one thing that long :)

Needless to say he was DIRTY by the end of the day, so much so that I had to shower him off before he could take a bath...here are just his hands

We had a family get together while we were there and my parents friend J.D. brought his motorcycle, which John was glued to for the whole day. But he would never let J.D. take him for a ride, he wanted to drive!
