the baby shower and the baby room
8:19 p.m. on February 20, 2006
abel and i have decided to have a baby shower after all. after losing Mia we (more like me) were terrified of having one but abel is right in trying to stay positive through the pregnancy and think nothing but good thoughts. i know we can't be living expecting the worst...it's not healthy and not fair for this little one.
so we've decided to have a baby shower for this little on a very special day. Mia's 2nd birthday is March 11th and that falls on a saturday this year so that'll be the day for our baby shower. i'm sure big sister Mia will enjoy her day with her little sister, Naima Clarice!
yup, that's the name we've chosen for this little miracle. Naima means "comfort" and Clarice means "light". abel picked it out all by himself and i actually love it...it's perfect!
we've also made another big HUGE step. we've started to fix up the baby's room. it's basically been untouched for the last 2yrs since Mia passed away. i was having a hard time every time we went in there to put things away. i just couldn't bare the thought of putting her things in a box. i knew if we had a baby boy we'd be putting it all away and i would just burst into tears every time. but now that we know we're having another little princess we're using all of big sister's things for little sister!
something very special in the room is a bassinet that has been in my family for years. my mother and all her siblings used it. my brother and i both used it as well. and now our precious baby will use it. i still have to make the bedding but i just can't seem to find the perfect material. nothing seems to be just right but that's just me being picky, picky, picky!
