Sooo unbelievably excited. I really don't know how I'm supposed to make it through the day. 10pm for an ultrasound is just cruel. Planning to keep as busy as possible--playdate at 10:30 this morning (which I should be getting ready for), then home to work on Ian's "family tree" for school tomorrow, two hours of Biggest Loser when hubby gets home (it's on until 11pm here now...ridiculous!), Financial Peace University from 7 to 9ish, then back to base by 9:45 to check in. Hopefully that will keep us busy enough to distract from the loooooong wait today!
In other news, I made my first cloth diaper purchase. Cotton Babies (the maker of Bum Genius, Flip, Fuzzibunz, etc) was having a Black Friday/Cyber Monday sale. They were selling grab bags of one diaper and one accessory for $9.95, with a guaranteed savings of 30-35%...not bad! So I went ahead and ordered four of those. The trick, though, is that I don't know what I'm getting. The diapers can be an all-in-one, pocket, fitted, or one-size cover. Hoping to get a little variety since I'm new to cloth diapering and want to try everything. The downside is that I had to choose boy or girl for the sex when I ordered on Monday...I DON'T KNOW!! So I clicked boy and requested gender neutral if possible in the notes. I figure blue on a girl will be better than pink on a boy.
In other CD news, some people irritate me. I've been checking out diaperswappers, a very cool site to sell your used diapers, but there are tons of girls on there who sell their used diapers for MORE than the cost of buying them new. Seriously? All the good deals I've found get swiped up really quickly (obviously) and I'm left with the ones trying to sell a dozen newborn prefolds for $35...they retail at $21. Granted, if I order them from the site there is a flat shipping charge of $6-something, but since I'm ordering quite a few things from there anyway, $6 for shipping is extremely reasonable. So no luck yet with diaperswappers, but I will keep searching. Planning to order my newborn kit this week, so will have to keep my eyes open for the next size up, Snappis, wet bags, etc.
Oh, and I've heard people say cloth diapering is addictive. I didn't understand it...a diaper is a diaper, right? Yeah, not so much...this CD stuff totally IS addicting. :p
Will update with pictures and hopefully GENDER tomorrow--cannot wait!
