Big and Stretchy.

That about sums up how I am feeling. Little man must be growing because I definitely feel the skin on my stomach pulling...I feel like I am going to burst sometimes! But all is well around here, my shower is in two weeks and more importantly, my sister comes up here in two weeks!! I may have to wear a "Hello my name is" sticker to the airport seeing as though I have this giant beach ball under my shirt!

Hard to believe I am almost 29 weeks along...only 11 weeks to go! I am getting really excited for him to be here, but also really anxious to get the nursery put together and to just feel "ready". Then again who am I kidding? Will we ever feel "ready" ? Probably not.

"You're Crazy!"

Well at least that seems to be the resounding cry that I get whenever I answer questions about the fact that we plan to cloth diaper, labor naturally (fingers crossed) and make baby food. I guess I don't get it, maybe don't ask if you don't want my answer? I am not walking around proclaiming these plans, but when someone asks me about it, I am certainly not going to lie to make you more comfortable! I would never say "our way is better" heck, I am not even a mom yet! We are just making plans for what we are most comfortable with and what we think will work in our lives. A blog I read ALL the time is making the switch to Cloth and of course is having plenty of people tell her she is crazy, so I guess it inspired me to talk about this subject as well. ANYWAYS! About that cloth diaper thing, can I even just tell you HOW excited I am to be doing this? I LOVE them, and I think many have a serious misconception of what a cloth diaper even is or how it works (the new ones). We are not talking about difficult folding and giant pins getting precariously close to a wriggly baby, it is just some snaps or a couple pieces of hefty Velcro. Look:

And...

Normal looking right? See I told ya! Anyways, I am lucky to have a husband who is on board, and my father-in-law will be watching Jax during the day when we are at work and has agreed to do these as well. I cannot wait until my little fluff butt is here!
