the never ending laundry pile


Thank God laundry isn't like this anymore. Every time I complain about our HE (high efficiency) European washing machine, I need to just remember that laundry could still take 3 hours to do, but would be much more labor intensive than sorting, scooping detergent, choosing a setting, and pressing the on button.

There always seems to be laundry to do, well and dishes to wash, but that is for another day.
Today I finished washing all the baby stuff that we have (not that it is very much) in preperation for the LO (little one) to arrive. I am now sitting amongst piles and piles of baby blankets, burp cloths, onsies, socks and sleep gowns, all so tiny and adorable.
Now is the difficult part, choosing which blanket to bring with to the hospital. Today I also began to pack my hospital bag, I know I still have time, but I figure with Pesach coming so soon, why not just get it over with and pack it. Still need to work on a playlist for my iPod or at least a CD for the "birthday". So glad Y and I have already picked out what outfit the LO is going to wear home from the hospital. It is an adorable yellow and cream outfit with a super cute cream hat I knitted for him/her.

I can't believe I still don't' know what this baby is. Y doesn't want to know, and well how can I know and not tell him?! I am SO curious!!! Not too much longer to wait now, just a little over a month till our due date, but I guess really s/he could come out to meet us in a few weeks! Wow so much to do.. back to the laundry piles, I think that is where I will be living form now on, especially since we are going to try and use cloth diapers. Wish us luck!
