boo!

so R and i went shopping for jigglyboo (yup, that's what we're calling her - yes, it's a her- since we haven't figured out a name yet) over the weekend.

we spent a pretty penny but at least we got the more expensive, important stuff out of the way already. we got her one of those infant car seat/carriers together with a stroller (i won that battle! haha) and the breastpump set (after talking it over with the salesgirl - who was super-helpful) i decided to not go for the crazy-expensive brand (although i'd read great reviews about it) and went with a cheaper brand instead which is hopefully just as good. good deal though, it came with a package consisting of the cooler bag, bottles and all. anyway, since i saved a little on the breastpump set, we could afford to splurge a little on jigglyboo's stuff. we also paid a visit to the hardware store to get some paint for our vintage crib project haha. thanks to my parents, it really is still in good condition even after 20 years - just in need of a little touch up.

i guess i'm a little excited now than i was in the beginning. especially now that i can feel her moving around in my tummy. it's such a funny, weird (and ticklish!) feeling. both R and i have been super cautious with our finances - so i think we'll be okay. we'll just focus on getting jigglyboo settled in and set up a baby fund for her and all - and once all that is done, we can start thinking of the new house. all in good time.

seeing as how finance is a bit tight these days (thank god i'm a lot stronger on my feet these days, and am able to cook again) - i feel guilty splurging on other stuff but i really think R and i should at least go on a babymoon haha. well, our honeymoon did only consist of a night in The Dusun (which was really lovely though) - but maybe we should take some time and enjoy ourselves before the baby comes.i'd really prefer to go somewhere nice and private but we'll see.

looking forward to a few days off next month. this long weekend we're heading back south and next month we'll be heading back home to the east coast.

i feel like i see my friends a lot less these days, but i've gotta pick and choose. can't win em all. but then again, everyone is so busy with work and other commitments - who said being responsible adults was fun?
