feeling pretty good

Had a good day today ... tried not to do too much.

Brought baby bath upstairs ... will need to wash it and put it into the change table.

Put baby teddy mat out on the line again today to enjoy the germ killing properties of sunlight and give it a good air out.

I washed it yesterday but it rained lightly just before I brought it in so I thought it needed an extra day of sunshine.

I will put out the bouncer cover tomorrow. It came off the line dry yesterday ... but after having some discussions with uni about the benefits of sun and air on our clothes and things ... I think another day of sunshine is a good idea.

I ironed a whole heap of size 00 and 0 clothes last night and have sorted them into boy and girl clothes.

The boy clothes will go into the baby's chest of drawers tonight.

Now I have the chest of drawers fully stocked with clean winter sheets and size 00000-0 baby clothes.

The baby's toy box is filled with the clean and ironed 00000-0 size girls clothing. I still have to iron the summer cot sheets, but once they are done I will put them into the toy box too, ready for use in spring and summer.

So once baby is born I will have easy access to a years worth of clothing and clean sheets.

I will leave the sorting of size 1-4 clothes for some time next year! There is not nearly as much in these sizes ... and most of it is girly stuff ... so since we think bump is a boy there probably isn't much point worrying about washing and ironing this clothing yet.

I bought a new cot mattress for the baby earlier in the week and that is sitting waiting in the cot.

I have also stocked up on some newborn size nappies and in the next few weeks will stock up on baby wipes.
