Price doesn't matter when you are ready for that epidural! But who ever dreamed circumcision would come with that kind of price tag? I have three girls so I had not realized this. My mother says she can remember when people had babies for less than a thousand dollars and it wasn't that long ago. <abbr><em><abbr><em>Baby Girl Stuffs last blog post..<a href="http://www.unique-baby-gear-ideas.com/baby-nursery-theme.html" rel="nofollow">NEW!

I like how you mentioned that Babies are expensive twice--it is so true!! That's why I told Stephanie (before she had the baby) to clean out the hospital room!! Take everything in there, b/c they will charge you for it, with those one-line charges like "baby supplies" (diapers, wipes), or pain medication (which is really just Ibuprofin, that you can easily purchase at walmart for about 3 dollars). The peeing on everything stage gets better...or maybe you just learn to go really fast when the diaper is off. Ethan is 4 months and he still projectile poos!! We call it diaper explosions. About the fussy thing...sometimes they just fuss and no amount of "good advice" will help. It is just what babies do. Hope all is going well. Andrew and I would love to get together with you guys sometime soon. Maybe after the holiday season...? Sounds like you are getting the hang of the daddy thing!!

That was a whopper--but quite informative. I made Matt turn off the Christmas tunes so I could read this to him--mostly the first part. Holy Cow... had no idea. But, truthfully, thanks for sharing all of that. Whoa, friend. That was a whopper–but quite informative. I made Matt turn off the Christmas tunes so I could read this to him–mostly the first part.
