15 week photo is up. Excuse the look on my face… I was dead tired this morning and couldn’t take the time to wake up before the photo, as I had to leave soon. lol It’s funny looking at my photos… the first few are wide awake and totally excited, and then I slowly get more and more tired-looking. But anyways, not a lot of change this week… though I am bloated from last night. ;) Weight – naked – was 141. So I’m staying about the same weight.<\/p>\n
PS – Yes those are my new maternity pants and a new maternity shirt! So comfy!!!<\/p>\n

I just scored myself a small periwinkle<\/i> Thirsties cover!! *squeal* I absolutely love the color periwinkle, and this particular cover was being sold new with tags! (Didn’t fit her kiddo at all.) Yayayay. I’m so glad I started shopping for diaper covers when I got pregnant…. I’m picking up everything I need as I go, for a little savings each time. It all adds up!<\/p>\n
When I get closer to my due date all I’m going to have to do is order the prefolds, snappis, and possibly a cover or two in colors that I didn’t find secondhand. And of course a bunch of washcloths. I’m thinking 3 dozen should be good. We’ll need a ton of them for diaper changes, and some to use for the bath as well.<\/p>\n
I had a hell of a time the other day looking for hooded bath towels, though. In the stores like BRU they’re selling cutesie colored towels for like $20 each<\/i>. WTF! I only need about 4 towels, but $80 for 4 towels?! I think not. Plus, I would LOVE to get some plain white or off-white towels. I don’t need any fancy designs or colors. My own bath towels are ivory, and so are our bedsheets. I just think they’re so luxurious that way. LOL (Of course I did spend good money for good-quality stuff… but there’s something about the color that just makes me feel like I’m in a spa, you know?) Anyways, I discovered that it’s freaking hard to find plain white hooded baby towels, that feel soft, and aren’t ridiculously expensive. (Like I can find lots of white “organic” towels… at like $40 each. HA!!!) Argggg. I think some of the only ones I’ve found are these<\/a> from the American Baby Company. My only irritation is that they come with a washcloth, which jacks the price up unnecessarily… but $13 is certainly better than $20. Plus the reviews I’ve read in different places are very good.<\/p>\n I am really having a LOT of fun getting my registries all set, finding good prices on things (because my main registry is BRU, and I figure most of my relatives here will purchase from there because it’s local – but if we end up needing to buy things, or people want to buy online, I know of places where some items are cheaper than BRU). I scroll down over my registry and I just get all teary. Every single item was carefully selected for my baby.<\/p>\n The other night I spent an hour on Amazon.com looking up lullaby cd’s. I found some really horrible ones – I really hate the tinny, child-like sounding ones. But then I found some GREAT ones… classical music performed by orchestras, and lullabys sung by various artists with great voices. I am going to LOVE listening to them. I may steal them to sleep with while I’m pregnant. lol (I just love soothing classical.)<\/p>\n ::<\/p>\n On the frustrating side of things, all I really want right now is a nice, fresh, COLD ham sandwich. But I’m too nervous about listeria to eat the ham unheated. :sigh: So I’m trying to decide if I can stomach a heated sandwich or not. (My stomach is not happy with me today. Too much random food last night at the party. I’ve been gagging all morning.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 15 week photo is up.
