The Journey Journal

Join the journey of Brittany and Brandon as they move through the pregnancy months of their first child...as viewed and expressed by a first-time grandmother (appropriate name for me TBD). This is simply a collection of my observations. I'm not attempting to be profound, even if I could. Expected due date is October 29, 2012. We invite your thoughts, suggestions and encouragment. We're a little nervous, but crazy-happy! We welcome you to follow along!

CATE'S CRAZY CLOSET

Eleven days until Cate's due date.

ELEVEN days and there are still things we haven't done.

Most of the major stuff? Yes.

Loving and caring family and friends have given and given beautiful and useful gifts. The baby registry at Babies 'r Us and Target is mostly fulfilled. Cate is so loved and she doesn't even know it. Yet.

Now, I admit we are lagging behind, just a bit,  with the minor stuff.

Cate's closet still needs a little work (meaning there are some computer items lingering that need a new closet to hide in). We plan to remedy that situation this weekend.

Buying clothing and shoes for Cate is bordering on obsession and I am now having to be stern with myself while out shopping. NO MORE is my mantra!

She has over one-hundred outfits ranging in size from 0-Whatever.

We are utterly aware this is excessive, but we make no excuses. Besides, when she outgrows them, we will do the right thing and donate (not sell) to a worthy charity.

Crazy? Maybe.

But, come ON, girls just wanna have clothes, right?

    Now, now...simmer down. Her closet is MUCH smaller!!! However, I feel it is my duty to set an example. What's a Gigi for if not that? I'm commenting as anonymous because I don't have time to open up my gmail. Anonymous is me (PBP.

    Yeah she has to have a play date outfit for when we go to lunch and TJ Maxx, then a lounging outfit when we come home, then a cocktail outfit for dinner time. Thats three in one day. Times that by everyday and you got alot of outfits. We are right on track ;)
