I did it, I finally did it. I bought maternity clothes today. My mom and I ventured a little north to Mo.ther.hood and I got some tops and a couple pairs of pants. I hate clothes shopping and maternity clothes shopping isn't any different. Pants are hard for me. If I find them to fit in the waist they are too short (I'm nearly 6ft tall). I did find one pair of jeans and one pair of work pants that will work. I really wanted at least two work pants...but I guess I can always go back later.
My mom made her first purchase of baby stuff today. While I was trying on clothes she stumbled upon little ducky and cow socks. They are so darn cute. The duck ones have little pom poms on the heel and the cow ones have little cow tails on the heel. Cute! She whipped them out a couple of times while we were in the car to look at them. She's so funny.
In the meantime, while we were shopping my MIL was doing a little shopping too. Her boyfriend has a cousin who has 2 year old twins. They were looking to get rid of some of their stuff so my MIL went up to Seattle to pick up stuff for us. She brought back two cribs, clothes, high chairs, strollers, and some other odds and ends. She got it all SUPER cheap. I'm so excited. It is so weird to have baby items in my house that are mine and not going to someone else at their shower or something. The couple who had twins had boy/girl twins, so we got a combination of both for the clothes. Either way we'll get to use some if not all of it.
It was a very good day. Now we just need to clean out the room that will be the nursery. I can't wait to start on it. I want to have it done in plenty of time for me to sit in there and daydream of the babies...

What a great weekend! It must be starting to feel more real now with the addition of baby items in the house! Have fun.
Yay for the hand me downs! That is a major score. You'll find that as far as clothes go, the twins will grow out of stuff so fast that you will tire of buying the brand new outfits that they only wear a handful of times.
that is so awesome to get such a deal....can you feel your cup runneth over??? cause i can SEE IT!!! you are very blessed right now and i am excited for what is happening in your life. All that you need now is the miraculous healing of your hubbs tummy issues, and everything would be grand!
dr m, is making my cycle almost identical to yours, even to the point that he added in some menepur to my cycle...so weird that we have so close to the same story.
anyways...yay for baby stuff!
