April

We've been having lots of fun in Chicago with a couple of visits recently from friends and family and some more to come shortly! We've also started preparing for the arrival of baby #2 who seems rather anxious to make an appearance. In fact, Matt and I had some fun this past Friday and did a test drive of labor and delivery. Ok, so we didn't want to do it but nonetheless we did a run through. Baby #2 is good for now but needs to relax already! Sheesh. The "new" Prentice Women's Hospital is a beauty -- quite different from the "old" Prentice where Luke was born.

Luke's been sillier than ever. He's completely addicted to the show Dora even though we've been limiting his viewing time. It's a good thing he has no idea that there are a lot of kids shows out there - thank you, DVR. He's also been enjoying his old baby toys that we've been pulling out - I think we might have some issues with him being possessive of them in the near future.

So in my preparation for baby#2, I've decided to use cloth diapers. Better for the environment, better for the baby, better for the wallet :) Mimi is helping with this effort by actually making the diapers - just like the ones you buy in the store but for 1/3 of the price! The first shipment should be arriving this week and I can't wait to see how they turned out.

Well that's about it for now...off the make more baby-prep lists!
