Turns out I am obsessed with every baby thing I look at. I'm obsessed with little socks and shoes and baby swings and little mittens - oh my goodness, little mittens. I might die. It's quite possible that we go broke when Poppy is born but at least baby will have cute little mittens (and every other adorable baby thing I can't help myself from buying).
Last weekend we went to Babies R Us to push around strollers and look at carseats. I loved being in that store around all the baby stuff and all the new parents or soon to be parents. GAHHHH! I wanted to hug every single person. I also wanted to plead with all of them to teach their son and/or daughter to be kind. I hope Poppy becomes friends with nice kids. I hope Poppy is a nice kid.
It was cute when we found a stroller we liked. We sat down by it and looked at all the little functions and then tried to fold it up with one hand. When we found a carseat/ carrier we picked it up, swung it around and imagined how easy it'd be to get it in and out of our two cars. We sat in rockers and imagined holding and singing songs to Poppy. I hope I can convince Erin to spend our weekly date nights at Babies R Us for the rest of our lives. :)
Poppy is now the size of a cocktail olive - and it already has arms and legs, tooth buds and most of the organs have started to develop. Erin is feeling better. She eats a lot and feels like she could sleep every minute of the day but the nausea feeling is gone and there is absolutely no baby bump. Goll, I am so eager for that to show up. Erin is still working all day and working out - it's quite inspiring to watch her.
Until week 10, we're out.
I love you, Poppy.
