My big exciting outings include trips to pharmacies in whatever large discount dept store I feel like visiting. While I'm waiting for my prescriptions to be filled, I wander around the store and look at things. Since last week's ultrasound I've been courageous enough to visit the baby section, twice. Now that we know bumblebee is a boy I've been looking at little blue onesies and sleepers, and have even picked up a couple of little things.
I've noticed something, and maybe it's just me:
Is there WAY more selection for baby girls than baby boys? It seems like the stores I've visited have had at least 2 or 3 times the amount of girl stuff than boy stuff. Is this the case everywhere, or is it just the stores I've visited? It seems to be true for clothes, bedding sets, everything. I wonder why?

Our next ultrasound is scheduled in three weeks. If bumblebee is growing on schedule he'll be the same size Charlotte was when she was born. This freaks me out some.

I plowed through the Twilight series, well, the first three books anyway, pretty quickly. I really enjoyed books 1 and 2. I thought 3 was ok. I am really struggling with book 4. I have about 250 pgs to go and I've been forcing myself to get through it. I didn't mind the birth stuff, but I'm just not enjoying this one very much. Anyone else find #4 was weak?

My sister sent me the DVDs of The O.C., which I have never seen. Juicy teenage drama is right up my alley right now. I'm partway through season 1, and I'm hoping the four seasons will see me through until the next ultrasound. So far I am enjoying it thoroughly. I am all about TV on DVD when I'm on bedrest. An excellent way to spend time.
I think that's it from me today.

Yep, #4 was a little weak. Honestly, #2 bored me a bit too :) I will say, though, that at the #4 I was sad just because I didn't want the series to end! Nothing like mindless teenage drama, huh? :)
Yes I do think there is a bigger selection for girls then boys. I have noticed that since all I have pretty much are nephews. I hope the next 3 weeks flies by.
I'm glad you have some good distractions - sometimes juicy teen drama is just what's needed. I hope these next few weeks go by quickly and uneventfully.
i love teenage drama, but then i grew up with the original 90210! the oc is perfect mindless tv watching. i LOVE it!! i thought book 4 started slow, but i enjoyed the ending.
I'm with Bluebird. #4 really dragged but at the same time, I didn't want it to end. #2 was probably my least favourite also.
And yes, clothes shopping for your Bumblebee Boy won't take but a minute, as there ain't much on offer.
I have a gorgeous crazy colleague who tells me as they get older, this is something that you will be thrilled about. Apparently your boy children will not bug you for clothes. Ever.
ps. Gossip Girl is the last word in juicy teen drama!
