We didn't get a call today about Jenny and Jake. It's actually giving us more time to prepare and get things together. I went out and bought the bassinet, bottles, a new wardrobe from Baby GAP (thank you Erin and Andy), wipes, some burp clothes, and a card for Jenny. I am going to write her a letter and I think I am going to give her an empty photo album. This way she can put the pictures we will send her in it if she wants to. I wasn't sure what I should get for her. What do you give someone who is giving you their baby? There really doesn't seem like an appropriate gift. There aren't enough words we can express to her to thank her for giving us this life to take care of.
It was really fun shopping for Jake today. I can somehow picture him in these little outfits and hats. I got him some silly onesies that say funny things. There was one that said "I like bikini watching." I almost got it but I put it back - I don't want him to get a bad reputation at such a young age.
Last night my sister Denise and her husband Vito came down. They ended up staying over and because we are painting our bedroom, Sean and I slept in Jake's room and we both woke up in good moods. It's really peaceful in his room - we think he will really like it.
