All Packed

Pregnancy is a lot about crossing things off checklist. The latest on this journey has been the hospital bag list. My friend Emily and I sat in the nursery today and packed two bags, one for me and Baby Daddy and one for the baby. PJs, check. Warm socks, check. Back massager, check. Snacks for Baby Daddy, check!!

I'm not sure when exactly we'll need these bags. It could be anytime in the next two to four weeks. Because I'm a habitual over packer, baby's got about three home-coming outfits packed. One of them was knitted by our dear friend Mr. C., one of Baby Daddy's former engineering professors. When Jervon and I got married Mr. C crocheted a bed spread as a wedding present. It's one of our favorite gifts ever. And when he found out that we had a little girl on the way, he got to work knitting this cute sweater, shorts, booties and hat. The set is complete with receiving blanket and pillow.


We can't wait to see our little princess in her outfit. Hopefully she won't make us wait too long, especially since Baby Daddy is accusing me of holding her hostage in my belly, and my dad is convinced I've been pregnant for a year.
