The exciting news of the day is that the wee one’s umbilical cord finally came off, meaning she’s going to have to start feeling less fussy about costume changes, ’cause I’ve got LOTS of cute outfits for her to wear! For her inaugural onesie, I popped her into one that I embroidered with a pattern from the Wee Wonderfuls Acorn Fairy Stitchette:
As you can see, she is *very* excited about it.
A silly baby story before I leave you to your Saturday. Moondoggie’s brother and sister-in-law gave us a sling for a baby gift, which is the best thing ever. I use it pretty much every day, and it is such an efficient way to tote her around (no bumping all over the place with a stroller), plus she totally chills out in there. This is what she looks like on the go
Except it isn’t always what I’d consider to be warm enough for her, so I’ll put on one of my maternity hoodies and zip it up over her. I’ve had more people say “Oh! Any time now, huh?” at which point I’ll unzip and say, “No! She’s already here!” Ok, maybe that isn’t so funny, but it always gives me a little giggle! I’m also considering using these directions to try making my own sling– it would be fun to have more than one of them in different fabrics!
And for something actually funny, head over here which I found via Anne. Both hilarious and frighteningly accurate (even as it describes things I like- Study Abroad, Graduate School, Musical Comedy and Bottles of Water).
