This, That and Other Stuff...

Today I am getting ready for our THIRD set of visitors!  It has been a fun month.  I also started our baby registry on amazon.com!  I'm pretty sure I've squealed a couple times while picking out baby items   I can't believe how cute baby things are!  Joel doesn't seem to be as thrilled as I am....That's okay.  I'll let him drive the big truck to pick up our baby crib.  That does not excite me at all!  (especially in this New Jersey traffic).

Joel and I have decided to use cloth diapers and wipes. I know...crazy granola for me, right??  Well, I've researched it quite a bit.  Cloth diapers are actually not any better for the environment than disposables unless you line dry them (I can't promise I will always line dry our babies nappies).  We made the decision based purely on the financial benefits.  How UNgreen of me, right?

We've also decided to use a product called "Woombie."  It's like a zip up swaddler that can't come undone like a blanket!  I've read a lot of RAVE reviews about them.  They help with startle reflex, guard against SIDS and the baby can't wriggle out of them like they can with a blanket.  Anybody out there use Woombies?

So, that's what is New in Jersey right now!  Baby stuff, visitors and more baby stuff!
