Whats up with the name??

Once i heard 'Upside Down Pickle in a Jar' as a metaphor for a baby in a womb, and thought it was pretty fitting for our blog. This is for all the family and friends that Ben and I unfortunately dont get to speak to often. You can feel like you are here in all the action!

Boring post

I got a breast pump.
My friend let me pick out the one I wanted and that was my gift from her. So I chose a Lansinoh Manual Single pump. It had the best rating of manual pumps that I read that were in our price range. The suction is good. Ben and I put it on our faces and laughed so hard when it pulled my cheek out. It didn't work so well on Ben because of his beard. lol

This past Saturday I was invited to Amy's Lingerie Shower in Valdosta. So I figured it would also be a good time to shop there for anything on my registries at Babies R Us and Target that I hadn't gotten yet. Both stores have sent me a coupon for 10% off of anything left. So Mom drove me and I went to the shower, which was fun by the way. She got a lot of funny stuff, and then some practical stuff. My personal favorite: the box of HoneyMoon Chex Cereal. -Long story-

Then we went to target, and I ended up not using my coupon but I did get a box of nursing pads that were on sale with a leftover Christmas gift card. They were the nuk brand. We'll have to see how they work. And I went to JC Penny's and bought a waterproof crib pad with a gift card. I returned a few things at BRU, and bought 2 books for Finn. We went to Hobby Lobby and I bought the few items in there to make his bird mobile, and I also bought the cutest wire basket for his newborn pictures. Pics will come soon of the mobile and basket!
Whats left for us to buy??
-going home outfit
-a pack of white crib sheets

I still have a shower at work, and I put diapers and newborn sleepers and just other basic necessities.
The crib is being ordered probably this week.

So overall we are pretty ready!!
