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!

the growing bump
When I was so small I still thought I was SO big, but now I am actually ginormous!!

6 weeks to go...
This is all going by so fast, only 6 more weeks! This is all getting very exciting but we still have a lot to do.
cleaning cleaning cleaning...lots to clean
And Pesach is sooo soon, so much cleaning to get ready for Pesach. I am so excited to be here for Pesach this year and this will be Y's first Pesach in Israel. He always goes home to his family, like we did last year, this will be such a different experience for him!
We were already invited months ago for seder to a family down the street. As soon as they found out when we are due they invited us. It is unlikely that we will give birth during seder or even during Pesach but it is possible since we will be in our 37th week!
The excitement is just beginning!
