BOOKS!

Dave and I finally made it to Barnes and Noble to look at baby books. Wow, they have an amazing pregnancy and parenting section. I've never had so much fun at the Nobe-Lae! I sat on the floor and read through every title and pulled out the ones that looked fun. Dave ended up grabbing Cool Names and then went to the magazine section.

This is what we ended up buying: Dave bought Cool Names for Babies (have you guessed that he has an obsession with names yet?) and I got Best Baby Gear (I'm starting to get obsessed with what items we need to buy and where we're going to get them, etc.), So that's what they're for! The Definitive Breastfeeding Guide (did you read my blog entry about my dream?), The Pregnancy Countdown Book (it looked fun!).

An interesting fact I learned when reading through a book where you log your breast feeding schedule - some African Bush women stretch their boobs (and many of them are already hanging pretty low because of the no bra thing - bras are truly amazing. Haha!) and throw them over their shoulder to feed their babies they have strapped on their back. I don't think my boobs would ever make it close to my collar bone even if I stretched and stretched and stretched them. Thank goodness I'm not a Bush woman - I would totally be an outcast.

After I wrote this I was curious: I pulled up on my boob to see how far it would go and I honestly don't think it moved even a centimeter. God blessed me in other ways!

Crave This!

- I haven't really had any "cravings," but I have been eating a lot of hard boiled eggs - plain, egg salad, tuna salad with egg - maybe I'm just getting in the Easter mood.

- Dave had a craving!!! I was at WalMart Tuesday night and he wanted Ham spread. First of all, it took him about 5 minutes to even explain what it was...I don't have any comments for this.

- Dave: "I'm going to go through my new book, highlight all the names I like and you can pick from those.

Me: "Oh really? You know, I've talked to many people who said the husband was so about picking the name until it was labor time because they would see how much pain their wife goes through and they decide that their wife can name the child whatever they want."

Dave: "Oh, not me - I stick to my guns. I'll have you put it in writing before we go into the hospital."
Oh, Dave, such a typical sales person!
