4 Months!!

Wow! Can't believe that in 4 months there will be a baby in our house. If you stepped in our house you wouldn't think there would be a baby on the way. Just a bunch of baby clothes but no decorations or furniture yet. I think we have a good amount of clothes to kinda start off with but Jee doesn't think so. We've been stopping by Gap on Wednesday's to get 40% off reg priced items. Not a bad deal but it's only off one regular priced item.

Is there a father version of nesting? I guess I'm just getting nervous we don't have anything cause our friend Jenni and Gak have everything basically ready. Jee and I are going to the PB outlet this weekend to see if there is anything there worth getting or on our list. I guess it'll be a bit better when we get a crib in the baby's room. We want to get this.

Fairly expensive but with the right hook up =) we can get it for a decent price. We also need window coverings, a dresser/changing table and some type of lamp to put in the baby room. We are also looking at getting this carpet for the baby's room.
Well anyway, as you can see we still have lots to take care of before the baby comes. We did get our first baby toy. Say hello to Jacques the Peacock.

Supposedly a very good toy for newborns due to the flashy colors and deep color contrasts. The back of Jacques is all black and white for contrast. Each feather makes noises and has different textures. So hopefully our little girl will be well stimulated by the toy.

Man so there's 4 months till the baby comes!!!, 1.5 weeks till school starts! I think from what I've heard our baby shower is in Oct.

Oh yea, also upgraded the the IPhone 4 so that I can start taking better pictures and 720p videos. So soon enough there may be some Videos up on the site.

Down by the Bay....

Who comes up with these books? All these baby books kinda don't make sense, especially the down by the bay book. It talks about whales with polka dot tails and llamas eating pajamas. Is this what we want our kids to learn? Lies? We need more educational books. I guess it does show kids how to rhyme words, uses repetitive sounds to help them learn the words, shows them colors and gets them familiar to short sentences. It's just these books aren't in depth in the topics they choose. For example for the down by the bay book why not talk about the sandy beaches the blue waters and crabs and fish and stuff. Not whales with polka dot tails and flies with bowties. I guess all the books are looking to be silly and just plain random to give the children a bit of an imagination as they are read to and as they read. Maybe I should look into TO's book called TO learns to share.

Anyways we got the car seat in the mail. Who knew it would be such a hot item that many of our friends would not be able to get. I guess 60% off is a good deal. Maybe we should just sell it for double the price we bought it for =). Anyway we also got some more baby clothes as Jee mentioned in the earlier post. The frillier stuff was a two piece bathing suit that I did not believe the baby needed next year. What baby needs to show off their belly? We did get some cute pants and shirts though. I was too lazy to post pictures of all the clothes.

I can't believe it is already August. We only have 4.5 months till the baby comes and we really don't have much. We still need to buy a lot of the "bigger" things like crib, dresser/changing table, curtains and such to start decorating the babies room. Luckily I work at PB and can get a discount. Who knew baby furniture could cost almost more than adult furniture. Along with the furniture we need to start picking out other things like bottles, toys, baby seats, infant car seats, strollers and such. Luckily Jee is better at thinking about what the baby might need soon. Hopefully.

Down by the bay. Where the watermelons grow. Back to my home, I dare not go. For if i do, my mother will say. Have you ever tried to figure out what this baby business is all about? Down by the bay!
