mostly about babies

Some friends of my husband (they're my friends now too, but were his friends first) had their baby last night, a girl weighing in at just over 8#. He started giving me all the stats, and I said "I don't care, what's her name?" (because I want to make sure it's not one we're thinking of...) and he said "She doesn't have one yet."

I would understand if this baby had been born 4 weeks early or something, but she was 8 days LATE. What have you been doing, if not picking a name? I've been thinking names since before we even got married!!!

(Dear T {baby's dad}: I'm sorry. But seriously. Why don't you have a name picked out yet?)

According to the new dad, she's a screamer. My husband said "It's because she found out you're her dad!" How nice.

Our nursery floor is getting installed next Monday (memorial day). Wood laminate. We're so excited!!!! A friend of mine is doing it for free (we just pay for the material), which makes it even better! then we can finally put up the crib!

Tomorrow is our last monthly appointment, and then they start coming every 2 weeks. and then every week. that will be good...at least for me. hardly time to get worked up over nothing in between appointments! 3 weeks from this Thursday we start our parenting classes. Eee gads! There are so many things I hope we learn!

I read the baby his/her first book yesterday, The Very Hungry Caterpillar. It's a cute book...I can't say I've read it before. I have another book with nursery rhyme type things in it that I will probably start reading from soon. It's a far cry from the book I'm reading now!

Work is slow.

(I had to put that in so not everything was about babies!)
