Yesterday's shopping

Washload two of Dylan bedding is just finishing, so I'll finally get all the pics up!

Dylan's cot bedding and 2 x moses basket blankets

I bought 2 acrylic one of eBay, which still had the tags on, so I exchanged them for cotton ones whilst in Mothercare! I am the cheekiest! However, they have created rather a lot of washing - *sigh*

Ah well, at least it's given me time to update my shopping list (which is now considerably shorter!) and to start packing my rather snazzy hospital bag:

It's not as big as it looks - honestly! I've updated my hospital bag lists (one for me, Dyl and Al) and they are probably about half packed. I want to have it ready as soon as possible, but I know some things, like snacks and clothes, can't go in until the last minute. I still might get it as fully packed as possible by about 36 weeks though, I'm so paranoid!

The there's all the fun bits we bought. Al is a MAJORLY bad influence! All the clothes bar the grey hat are a result of "but we HAVE to get this 'len, it's SO cool!" He's right, but... oh sod it, Dylan's worth it! We bought stuff in quite a variety of sizes though, so he has stuff to grow into:

Grey bear hat (for his coming-home-from-hospital outfit; baby flannels; skull hoodie (size 1-1.5 years, but was on sale in Sainsburys;) blue leggings (£3.50/2! and desperately needed;) woolly hat and gloves set (because Alex fell in love with them!;) stripey hoodie (ditto;) and blue sleepsuit (3-6 months and we both fell in love with this one!)

I got a couple of things for me too! Alex bought me this lovely jumper (and it's non-maternity so I can wear it afterwards! Whoop!) I found an old Office gift card in my purse (thanks Chiara!), so I finally got round to getting some more winter-proof shoes... yes they are fabric, but they are more rain friendly than my current slip ons! I'm not sure what prevents me being able to put on shoes more - the leg injury or the bump!
