Belly Laughs

I receive two weekly emails about pregnancy. Each one contains different information, advice, and ideas. Today's email was from Baby Center. The Baby Center emails are more informative than the others and I like how much information they contain. They are incredibly timely and accurate about all the different things I am experiencing each week. I wish I'd known about these with my last two pregnancies! They probably didn't even exist when I was pregnant with Shane.

Today's email had a fun "belly laugh". They always do, but I really liked this one and wanted to share it. Sometimes they are corny. This one is just so very true! So, here it is:

Last night we set up and cleaned the crib and changing table as well as unpacked the console table we'll be using as a dresser. There wasn't enough room to keep the other dresser in the bedroom so hopefully between the changing table, console, table and closet we'll have enough storage. The room is looking cute. Next we need to buy the mattress and changing table mattress. We decided to leave a huge chair in the room so I'll need to somehow recover it or find a good slip cover. The one it has now doesn't fit and is the wrong color anyway. Is anyone out there good at making slip covers? The only reupholstering I've done was on bar stools which was very simple. This one might be too much for me, especially since I won't be able to bend over to fit the material...

Once upon a time you slept in a room with bunk beds and a crib. It wasn't a big room. I guess rooms are like purses.....the bigger it is the more you put in it!

You can always get a bedspread to cover the chair......use sheet "garters" to pull it tight in the back.

I can't find any contact info for the AP group but I bet they are still around. Call LLL and see if you can get any info from them - lots of the women were in both groups and even if the Ap group is defunct you may be able to get some info from La Leche League.
