Day #53 (Thu., Feb. 25, 2010) – Baby Supplies

3:33am – I’m up doing a bit of work this morning. My wife is getting some much deserved sleep, and little Katie is permitting her to do so.

When I got home this evening little Katie was sleeping. This tells me that she was watching the health care debates on tv. That would put anyone to sleep… 🙂

I had to go pick up some things for the baby today. First off I had to return a set of #1 diapers to Target as they are too small for little Katie now. I then had to pick up 10 packages of #2 diapers, and 10 Diaper Genie refills. I also picked up some more bibs. I was going to get the “pastelly” “girly” ones again, but opted for a 10-pack of more bright colors. There were two leaning towards the blue side of the spectrum (they tell me more suitable for a boy), but the other 8 were quite bright and happy. My wife approved, so we will keep them.

Total charge at Target…$156.04. Our little Katie…priceless.

I think I have found the key to “burping” little Katie. I hold her under her arms and try to let her support herself by her feet. After doing this for a while I sit her on my knee and pat and rub her back. For some reason this seems to dislodge any air bubbles and she burps…ready for more feeding…

11:34pm and little Katie is still up. My wife said that she won’t let us go to sleep until she knows who won the figure skating competition.
