Two things have been a delight for me today and I thought I would share. So, here are my "happies" for today. I hope you have had many of your own!
Roland and I picked up our first cloth diapers today! I am SO delighted! These adorable little guys are just wonderful! We chose Fuzzibinz for our first dozen. I was surprised how excited Roland was upon seeing and holding them. I can't wait to try them on AT. Ohh....how am I going to make it through the next 3+ months? So pretty with bright and pale colors and amazingly soft! If you know me well enough to be reading this then you know I HATE waste so cloth diapering was an easy choice. Okay, I realize that I have just added to my already terrific laundry responsibility but I LOVE these cute, little guys! My washing machine will look like a rainbow! I have been so excited since beginning my research and now they are placed in AT's room awaiting him. I have even dreamed of diapers! And not just once either, several times. I just wake up and laugh and laugh! Imagine someone dreaming about diapers! (Roland is a heavy sleeper so he isn't bothered.) Everything is coming together and we are more ready for our precious miracle to arrive every day. If any of you have used cloth I would like to hear suggestions too.
I know I am supposed to think that my shortness of breath is annoying but girls, it Delights me! I just laugh and laugh! This evening I was picking up sticks in our back yard and carrying them while talking to my mom. I got a bit a light headed (a very little bit) when bending down and just sounded like I was running a marathon! Finally, my mom told me to stop my laughing, talking and picking up sticks and sit down before I passed out! (In full disclosure I was talking about how great these diapers are and she was heading to dinner with a girlfriend. Can't you just see her rolling her eyes? LOVE IT--let me just say!) It doesn't help that whenever I notice my shortness of breath I start laughing which makes it worse. Can't you just picture it? It reminds me of praying as a little girl, "God, please make me short and cute". Yea, ya gotta be careful what you ask for! I got the short part, that's for sure! (This is the culprit of my shortness of breath.) I am assured that it isn't a medical problem and AT is getting plenty of oxygen. I am also told it is going to get more noticeable very quickly! It doesn't make me uncomfortable and I am not getting particularily dizzy at all. So, it is just something else to laugh about!
So there you have my delights of today. I love this time! I cannot wait to hold AT but since I have to (and the alternative to waiting is not what I would ever wish for) I LOVE this time. It is so special. I know that this is a time that I will always remember as one of the best times of my life. I have my sweet son with me at all times and we just get to be together. I truly treasure it and realize I probably won't get this chance again. Haha! Good night ladies! I hope your day has been full of many precious moments.
