We’re getting closer every day. Baby Bailee is an active little buger, which is good. We are approximately 13 weeks and some change away. I am so excited. I feel like we have plenty of diapers, at least to get through the end of the year, (see The Diaper Spreadsheet) so I’m not exactly sure what else we need for Baby Bailee. But Lacey’s shower is coming up, after that we can converse with some of the other mommies we know to see what additional supplies we need to acquire.
Baby Bailee’s room is painted, (thank you Rhonda) so our next task is to start getting it organized. Lacey asked me to do it yesterday, but I didn’t (for no particular reason). We need to move his furniture to where we want it. Then I’m not sure what comes after that. I need a rocking chair (or glider, I’m not sure) and a small table to go next to the rocking chair to set a lamp on. Is it good to have a lamp in a baby’s room? Maybe I could get a tall lamp that can go behind the rocking chair. I like that idea better.
I intend to read to baby Bailee every night. I have started this on a somewhat limited basis. I have been reading to him most night before bed, and he seems to enjoy it. I think he enjoys it, I’m basing this opinion on the fact that when I read to him, he does stuff. He was very active last night when we started Bunnicula.
On an entirely unrelated subject, my tree is dying. I set it outside on one of the warm sunny days recently, but then forgot to bring it back in. Its limbs are starting to curl and it’s changing to a pale sickly green color. While this is discouraging, it’s not the end of the world. I will just need to remember to bring house plants in before I go to bed. My other plants are doing splendidly, possibly because they haven’t been left outside.
