Baby Clothes

We bought very few infant outfits for Finn prior to his birth because a) we thought we'd get tiny, cute baby clothes for our showers and b) we didn't know how big the boy would be and didn't want a bunch of tiny clothes that he wouldn't even fit.

Fast forward.

He's certainly not a big boy. As a matter of fact, he's rather scrawny. And because of our careful planning, we have lots of really cute outfits that are waaaaay too big for him. We have a lot of newborn onesies, but the weather keeps us from using them exclusively...just a bit too cold. And we have one pair of tiny baby pants...his green ones. This means he's wearing the same three stretchies over and over again until he gets bigger.

I'm really tired of the same three stretchies.

Which is why when we went to Gymboree a few days ago I insisted on buying the above pair of overalls. Then yesterday we bought him a really cute pair of L'oved Baby tiny blue pants (I love their cotton basics and especially the HATS!!). I just want our boy to have some style, yo!

M. has declared the overalls to be the bane of her existance and is from now on refusing to do any diaper changes if he's wearing them.

Job Interview

M. had a job interview yesterday and she's somewhat interested in the position. We'll see if she gets the job or not.

The fun part was that Finn and I went with her and hung out in the International District while she was at her interview. I used our very hip ring sling and Finn was happy and snug the entire time.

We had lunch and bubble tea and hung at Uwajimaya. Me and the boy. I admit that I'm loving getting out with our baby.

Then all three of us went to Birth and Beyond and Babies-r-Us and picked up various odds and ends that we could use, including a Hooter Hider to help me nurse in public and spare parts for the breast pump that we've already found quite easy to drop down the garbage disposal.
