Reid's grandpa Bartlett got me a book..."the mother of all baby books". IT IS SO DANG GOOD. I have had to leave it in the car so that I can get some stuff done around the house. He said the also have one called "the mother of all pregnancy books" and "the mother of all tots books"
It has really shead some light on how to get ready for a baby. I AM A HORRIBLE READER...in that... I HATE TO READ. But this book has sucked me in! It gives advice from mothers and statistics on different facts.

" 70% of woman are overly excited about having a baby and then when it comes, they are overly disorganized because they were all about making the baby cute instead of practical."
- Mother of All Baby Books-

I was glad to read that... because I am very very very practical when it comes to children. (Maybe because I was a nanny to 3 children all under the age of 4) I'm all about sticking them in a clean diaper and pushing them out to play. (I did that when I was young...and look how I turned out. haha)

Reid really liked the part in the book that said something to the effect of, "find clothes that are easy for diaper changing...". He said he didn't really think of that before...and he said that my idea of having our kids wear wunzies was a PERFECT idea.

I have a OB GYN appointment today and are excited to hear what they have to tell me about little Hayden.

Hope everyone is enjoying the 103 degree weather!!!

ps. we close on our house next week!!!
