Laundry Detergent

Okay....huge topic...I know. Do you really need to use a special detergent for the baby's clothes?!?!?!?

I would think using the same that we have always used....TIDE....would be fine since Joshua will be in contact with everything else in the house that has been washed in TIDE and not some other special brand.

Adorable

Joshua is going to look so adorable going to meetings with Raul and I. He'll look like a little version of Raul.

I found this suit on e-bay for next to nothing. There are more there for different sizes so I may just have to see about a couple for the District Convention for sure. This one is for 3-6mths so it will still be to big for the Special Assembly in December.



This brand new 5-piece Infant’s Suit includes:
1. Fully lined suit jacket, single-breasted styling.
2. Dress slacks with elastic waist for an easy fit.
3. Matching lined suit vest.
4. White long-sleeved dress shirt with clear buttons.
5. Matching necktie.

Childbirth Education Classes

Okay....I know, I know....another post on this!!!

Honestly, some things have been great....touring the hospital and seeing a birth on video, but everything else is making me think 70's Flower Child. Last night's class was all about visualization. We listened to a CD that tried to take us to a path in a forest that brings us to a pond. OKAY is all I could think. The breathing techniques the instructor teaches are a little strange. There is one she calls slow breathing in counts of four and another one where we breath into our chest three times and on the fourth act like we are blowing out a candle, my breathng does not change at all for either of them. I apparently have very deep, slow breathing normally. Raul said that if I learned anything, it's that I have very calm breathing.

I guess we'll see in November how useful these classes have been. Next Tuesday is our last class.

Testing the Toys

Popi and Noni were testing out Joshua's toys. Look what I found when I went to use the restroom.


His bath toys all on the floor of the tub. I guess they needed to be tested before he can use them, right?

Here is a stuffed toy Noni and Popi brought out for Joshua (although I might have to keep it in my room). His name is Efilant.
