Our January

This month has been all about the baby boy! I made a list of all the things we need for the little guy and have become addicted to Consumer Reports, Craigslist and Ebay as we are trying to get stuff gathered. I am so proud of my bargain hunting abilities, in just the past few weeks we have gotten our stroller, carseat, diapers, and 2 carriers all still in boxes, brand new but off Craigslist so way cheaper! I also ordered the fabric for the crib bedding off Ebay (it was discontinued last year). It has been great finding such great deals, but what was really great was digging up one of Mir's old dolls out of the garage last night and dressing the it up in some of the stuff:
We decided to do cloth diapers with this baby, it is better for the environment, the baby and will save us a little cash along the way....they are so, so cute! They come in awesome colors and will fit the little guy from newborn to toddler.
Even Mir got in on the action, she had the Sleepy Wrap down in no time! And, she even tried her hand at the cloth diapers (um, excuse the disaster going on around her, it is clean now!!):


And here is what Filipe did:
Can you tell we are just a little excited for this little guy to come join our family, we can't wait until May to meet this little person! I am feeling really good, but am resembling a small house these days. I walk like a penguin and have "accidentally" been called Shamu. I love it though, there is nothing more amazing than feeling him move around inside my belly, even if it is in the middle of the night, or directly on my bladder!!
