1. I walked into baby D’s nursery this morning and found him sitting up in his crib. Looks like someone finally figured out how to sit up on his own!
2. Going up a size in diapers did not fix our nighttime leak issue. At least, not the first night. I’ll keep trying. In the meantime, I think we need to buy more pajamas. Or just do more laundry.
3. I went to Time For Dinner again last night, but this time met up with a group of girls for Girls’ Night Out. We had wine and appetizers and I walked out of there with about 16 freezer meals and a cherry crisp for dessert. I’m thinking we’ll need to make this a monthly occurrence.
4. One of my friends is having a baby shower on Saturday. I still need to go to Babies R Us to get her gift and I hope I can walk out of there with JUST her gift and nothing else.
5. This is the best one: One of my besties is having a gender reveal party on Saturday (after our other friend’s shower). She had her ultrasound on Wednesday and had the nurse write down the gender on a piece of paper. Then she dropped it off at MY house without looking at it. So now I know the gender but no one else does! (Well, except her OB and my husband.) I’ll be picking up blue or pink balloons tomorrow so we can do something like this (click photos for source links):
I’ll also be making pink or blue filled cupcakes tonight.
I am just so stinking excited (and honored) to be part of this huge moment! And I can’t wait to have another baby around to snuggle.
But... Will There Be Cake? 
We’ve recently started having nighttime leakage problems as well! It started when we switched from Pamper’s to Luv’s. I thought maybe I could go up a size for nighttime in Luv’s, but it made it worse. I’m going to try to go back to Pamper’s for nighttime only. I also heard Huggie’s Nighttime work well. What are you using?
We went up to Size 4 Pampers Baby Dry, and since Em is a tummy sleeper we leave a little more in the front than normal. Works like a charm. :-) No more wet jammies. If you’re going to Angie’s I can bring you a few to try if you’d like.
The balloon idea is cute!
For the nighttime leaks, I’ve heard of slipping a maxipad into the diaper to soak up even more moisture overnight?

I love the balloon and cake ideas! Your friend has so much will power though! I think I would sneak a peak at the ultrasound results!
[…] On a MUCH happier note, one of my best friends had her second baby (another boy!) on Wednesday and last night, we stopped by the hospital to bring […]
