baby wrapping

I took a baby wearing class at the local hospital a few weeks ago and found a few wraps that I'm interested in trying out. I got my Moby wrap in the mail today and my first experiment was wrapping my cabbage patch doll Dorthea. Matty thought I was completely insane but I have to say I think I'm really gonna like this. I'm going to bring my wrap to Turkey day and have Val try it out on a real live baby, Pia! The directions say you can wrap a toddler to you using this! I'll believe it when I see it.

Baby Shower

Hello everyone it is Matty again. What a weekend it was! We are so lucky to have great family and friends like we do. This past weekend Lil got showered with gifts for (his/her) upcoming arrival. From swaddlers, to passies, to play areas, to strollers, to stuff for mom and stuff for dad, and even stuff for big brother Rubbles. What a great time it seemed was had by all. As the dad to be I was very pumped with all the guys that came by to drink beer and light sticks on fire.

From an update standpoint Dena had to drink her dextrose today and hopefully the results of her blood comes back no on the gestational diabetes front. Lil had a heartbeat about 150 today which is great. After Thursday we will only be 10 weeks away from seeing lil....we can't wait.

Well I hope everyone is doing great and we can't wait to see you all.

Love ya all

From Matty

Hey Everyone,
Just figured I would give a shout out to let you all know that on occasion the Dad of this evolving fruit will be posting too. We just got back from a wonderful weekend with the Uncle, Aunt and cousins to be of our 2010 baby and are so grateful for fun times in western NY.

The most recent thing on my mind about our baby to be is ... "Can you teach a baby to be potty trained right out of the womb?" I changed a diaper for the first time ever and I must say I did a poor job at best. Thanks to my niece for her patience. I'm sure there will be more practice in my future whether I like it or not.

Love you all
