It’s a girl and Baby Checklist

It’s a girl, it’s a girl!! That’s what my good friend Dale announced to us when we had lunch yesterday. She is now six months pregnant to their first baby and she and her husband is really excited for the baby’s coming.

We too are excited for them. As early as now, I have been giving her tips about taking care of the baby, giving birth and all other baby stuff. And of course, we did not miss talking about shopping for the baby (which, by the way, is my favorite topic).

I gave her my baby checklist that I used when I shopped for my own daughter. This checklist that I got from my Expectant Mother’s book has been very useful to me as it helped me shop for everything that I need for the baby’s coming. So I would like to share it here as I have a lot of friends who are pregnant right now and might find this list very useful.
