Week 31 - Outfits

The Week 31 instructions on Baby Center indicate we should be getting a bag together already. Do I start to hyperventilate now or wait a few weeks. This is all happening much faster now. Apparently this bag contains the "going home outfit" that Maggie has taught me about recently. According to some unknown law, this is one of the most critical pieces in the whole birth puzzle. This outfit must be cute. It must be appropriate for the season. It must be girly enough so everyone knows we had a girl and we can avoid those awkward moments when people look at your baby and wonder. It must be the right size and we're not sure if she's going to be very big. It must be cuddly and the perfect outfit as this is the "welcome to the world" outfit. Based on this you'd think we were going to leave the hospital and there would be some float we would jump on to be whisked off into a parade cheering us on culminating in our coronation as new parents. Alas, my thought is that we will leave the hospital quietly, put this baby in the car seat we pray is installed correctly, and drive her home at which point she will spit up and poop on her going home outfit.
