Buy Buy Baby

We visited Buy Buy Baby for the first time the other day. Actually we've been there before, but it was the first time we've been there for ourselves. I actually felt like an idiot when I went in! Usually I know all about the things I'm looking for... well, most of those items are things you PLUG in, but anyway... in this case, I felt clueless. Apparently they have these new type of convertible crib-beds where they are higher quality pieces of furniture that you can use for years even after the baby grows up. We need to decide on one of those types or just the traditional cribs... I'll post some pictures of each of them soon.

We also visited Dr. Tran for our monthly checkup. It was a good time because Mom3.0 has recently been feeling some stomach discomfort. In fact the other day, there there was some stomach pain and "pinching" sensations. Good news though, Baby1.0 is fine. The pinching and stretching sensations are from ligaments and muscles being stretched as the baby grows. What a relief!

Baby1.0 is now 17 weeks!

Books, Books and more Books

People have been giving us baby books so we (ok, mom3.0) has been reading more. Right now Nish is reading The Girlfriends' Guide to Pregrancy by Vicki Iovine which she is really enjoying since it validates a lot of the stuff she's thinking and feeling. Thank God because how many times can I tell her that the red dots on her face will go away!?? For me, finding time to read all this stuff is hard... although we always seem to have spare time to do other stuff... like watch movies. Last night we watched Rambo and Superman (the original from 1978) until 2am. Yes, GUY night... with mom3.0 and myself! Can you believe she's never seen either movie??! "They were such boy movies when we were growing up" True...

An expanding bump*

Picture of Mom3.0 - and she's growing! ... which is a good thing in this case - I would suggest that most guys refrain from such comments in any other situation! :)

*bump = as described by Mom3.0's work friends..

Baby1.0's first gift and a Feature Update!

Baby1.0 received his or her first gift recently, courtesy of my friend Monica from work! Attached is the little monkey as he hangs from our fridge door! Thanks Monica!



Feature Update! I've also added Meebo to this blog (upper left corner). So next time you see me online, drop me a line and say "howdy"!

It's been a while

It's been a while since we've posted anything here.. again, I must blame all the school work I have for this crazy summer class! But it's only about 8 more weeks left and then I'm free! Well at least free from papers, group presentations or 3 chapters to read in one night type obligations. Either way, I need to find some time for more exciting things, like new cribs or new strollers! Actually, it might sound lame to all of you who have never had kids - or have had kids before and have already been through this - but we're kind of excited. I'm going to start writing about these thoughts and maybe even come up with some polls so all of you can help us decide on what to get! Now that sounds cool.. at least to me, don't know what Mom3.0 would say about that..
