On Top of Things or just Over Zealous

So the baby thing has hit full blown with decisions on baby bedding, cribs and so on. I guess when I hit 16/17 weeks I realized that there's only 5 months left. At the rate these months have been going I'd better kick it in the butt. I'd rather be over prepared than under prepared I guess. A dear friend has blessed us with a free crib that is exactly what we are looking for. Dwayne and I found a bedding set we just love that works for both boy or girl. I went ahead and registered for it. Might as well get a head start on everything. I called a pediatrician today and she said just let them know at the hospital when the baby is born that we want their office and the doctor on call will come by and check on the baby. I found that almost too easy! I had time the other day and did a spread sheet of comparison shopping of certain big items. Wal-mart came out as the best buy's on most stuff. Should've known, right! I have a fascination with baby feet and hands. At the doctor's office I saw pictures where the dad or grandpa was holding the baby with a black background. All you see is their hands around the baby in different ways and I was like I want pictures of Dwayne and the baby like that.

I'm excited! I'm in awe! I'm loving every minute of this experience!

Have the time of your life! Enjoy it! And most important, thanks for sharing it with us.
But, be careful! I have a feeling that you and Dwayne will need Frank to help you add on an addition with all the stuff you'll accumulate!!!
And -- if you think all this is a lot to get now, wait until she's one!!
