Another Perfect Day
May 20th, 2008 10:10 am by Naomi in Day to Day at GlitterHere are today’s new goodies. Just listed in the shop are a Babar storybook frame, and a little mouse reconstructed card.
Yesterday turned out great. We went to the doctor and baby and mama are growing just perfect (although I do already have the beached whale feel….). Then Jerome actually agreed to run by Target and Babies R Us to look at gear for our registry. We have a lot of family out of town so gift registries really are a good thing.
We also went to Trader Joe’s for yummy groceries, Ancora for coffee, and stopped by Wild Child to looks at these.
The lovely Janet told me about these after I was whining about my great diaper debates I was having, and they look amazing! They are somewhere between a cloth and a disposable diaper. You can actually compost or flush the liners (or they biodegrade if you have to toss them) and the covers are completely reusable! We may still look into complete cloth diapering systems but they are very expensive and for a starter this would be fun to try.
When we got home I put my swollen feet up and Jerome made a yummy dinner of grilled shish kabobs and couscous.
Then before bed we took out the hospital memorabilia box and looked at all our pictures and cards and wished Molly and Charlie a happy birthday.
Today I am going to sew kitties, plant veggies and strawberries and go to Darby’s fine art night for her spring concert. I am excited because we get to go out for ice cream afterwards! Pretty pathetic when the mama is more excited about the ice cream than the kiddos, but oh well!!

Thanks for making me cry the other day with the pic of the two children looking over the tiny baby. Dammit! I have been thinking about you.

:) I hope the gdiapers work out well. I am excited to try them too. If you google “gdiaper reviews” you will some good information too. Not everyone loves them but then you’ll read another review and someone else will rave. Plus you get good tips on any problems that might crop up.
I completely relate to the beached whale feeling. I am swollen and stiff. I have this thing where I can’t bend my fingers in the morning. Completely normal, but nonetheless disconcerting. lol If one more person says “Any day now right?” and I have to grit my teeth and say “Nope, not until August”…I think I might very well lose it. lol
Ice cream is the best thing ever invented. That’s what I say! :)
