Online shopping and pregnancy hormones don’t mix
My sister and mother-in-law are going to kill me. I just made a huge impulsive purchase online. I bought the entire crib set, including the mobile, valance, wall hangings…you name it I bought it. Right down to the little giraffe night light. Wait until my husband gets a hold of the AmEx bill. DOH! I don’t know what came over me. I was innocently searching for baby names when I came across decorating tips for nurseries. Well, one thing led to another. Before I knew it I was starring right at the order confirmation number. I thought about returning some of the things because I know my family will throw me a shower, but I really don’t want to. It was the first time any of this seemed real and I felt really close to my baby. I shouldn’t feel guilty about that, right? How does that sound? Hopefully my husband will accept that explanation. Shopping is fun…woo hoo!!

Ha, ha, ha, I hope your husband is a doctor! One of the best parts of having a baby is dreaming about the future.

Welcome back, Marni!
No kidding…I’m definitely gonna hear it. And it gets worse. Did I mention I had the boxes delivered to work?? I’m just digging a bigger hole aren’t I?

Thank you Suzie! I needed some validation and to beef of my explanation. Do you mind if I use the, “dreaming about the future”, part? It’s not only true, but will help with my defense : )
