    I still question it being yours...

    CONGRATULATIONS! Patience IS a virtue, Diapers and formula WILL not be needed forever, They will grow fast and it will be sneaky! Like from 7 then they're 13. No shit! Also learn to LOVE LOVE LOVE repetition.

    .. And yes, that is your dad in the mirror. If it wasn't why word the words from your mouth sound so much like his?

    Have fun! It's a Hoot!

    Congrats, our first will be a year old in October. Sleep is likely a thing of the past for quite sometime. One thing that we did and will dr again is limit the number of visitors to the hospital, we had less than 10. More time for you to bond and birth wears out most women.

    If you end up using formula I can't say enough good things about what we call the baby kuerig, http://www.babybrezza.com/store.php/...o/formula-pro/ , bottle is less than 30 seconds b

    Congratulations!

    It's garage sale season, so now is the time to scoop up on baby clothes.

    I'd suggest picking up things that are time/energy savers for you both- I have a feeling you'll have to re-figure everything from meals to showers. Crock-pots and rice cookers are generally things you can find at yard sales and will save you lots of time and grief.

    I'd also start buying baby-proofer things- those plastic bits that go into plugs, bumpers (or pool noodles) for sharp corners, and those little doohickies that keep cupboard doors closed are what come to mind at the moment.

    Congrats!

    Our first little one is almost 1.5 years now. Definitely get lots of sleep now, because you'll never get the chance again. We're ecstatic when the baby "sleeps in" until 7am.

    One of the best things the wife did was order diapers from the Honest Company. Order diapers online and they ship them to the house. Lots cheaper than buying at the store, they throw in packages of wipes for free, and they have some cool patterns like skull and crossbones and stars & stripes.

    We also networked with friends and family who are having babies to start a round-robin of clothes, shoes, toys, etc. We get the hand-me-downs when their babies grow out of them, and we package them up and send them on to the next person who has a baby when our little one outgrows them. I don't know how much money this has saved us, but we haven't bought a stitch of clothing yet, and his dresser is full of clothes.

    The wife got on this site called varagesale.com as well. It's a bit like Craigslist, without all the shady business. Tons of toys, strollers, baby carriers, etc. for cheap.

    Things that have been essential: blankets & flannel PJ's, humidifier (a loud one for white noise), milk trays for freezing breast milk, and a camera of some kind kept in a conspicuous place to catch all the cute shit they do.

    Good luck! It's a total pain in the ass, and a hell of a lot of fun.
