First Step...er purchase

So it has begun.  Our first purchase for the new baby.  Technically speaking it was multiple purchases.  Saturday began with me coming off work and performing my usual run in the morning.  Now usually i would be wiped out, but i was excited about the entire weekend of not working or being on call for once.  Adrenalin is a wonderful thing.  So our shopping adventure began with the local stops to the lot to check on progress.  Yahoo.  We have more dirt!!

The 1000 dollars that we spent is really coming together.  I'm just glad it hasn't rained and turned our dirt pile into a mud house.  From there, we traveled around hitting stores here and there.  Eventually we ended up in Baby's'r'us with lots of coupons in hand.  Of course we weren't the only ones.  You would think they were giving out free pickles and ice cream with all the pregnant women shopping around.  We did get the things we set out to get...sort of.  Stroller has been bought, and the glider has been ordered just not coming in just quite yet.  Surprisingly, for knowing exactely what we wanted and knowing what we needed to get, it took an hour and a half in that store.  That is how busy it was.  But it has begun.  We now have our first items for the baby.  Now only 298 more items, 3 years of diapers, and enough formula and food to feed a baby elephant for a week, not too bad. 

Yesterday, we had the fun experience of living in florida.  Unlike most people,  We were able to spring clean our house in the middle of january.  Absolutely love it.  70 degrees, doors and windows open, garage reorganized and cleaned, cars washed and cleaned out, even cleaned our the house.  Just one of the reasons why i love living in Florida.  Looking forward to the next productive weekend i have off.  Though i'm suspecting that will consist of me packing up things and getting ready to move.
