Packing the Granny Panties
We still have a few things to do before Lexi's arrival. Before next week, I am hoping to pack our bags for the hospital, install the car seats, and finally pick a pediatrician. I don't know how far in advance a pregnant woman should do these things, but I guess now is as good of time as any.
Speaking of packing.... In our last Lamaze class, we were given a list of items that we should make sure we bring. For the most part, the list was like any other on the internet or the one they give you at Babies R Us, but there was one item that I hadn't seen listed anywhere. Not only was it on the list, but the teacher made a point to explain that 6 pairs of cotton Granny Panties are important for the hospital. She said they are much more comfortable, especially if a c-section is necessary. The sexy little panties most women in Miami wear (all g-strings) tend to cut right across the c-section wounds. This kind of makes me laugh thinking about women, who have just given birth, wearing sexy underwear. It is probably one of the last situations that I would think about trying to be sexy. Now, I admit that I had to buy a pack of Granny Panties, but I have plenty of pairs of briefs that would probably be just fine. One thing is for sure, I'll save my sexy underwear for better occasions.

This blog is like a journal for me. It is also a way for my friends to keep tabs on me.
For people who don't know me, I come from a big family (3 brothers & 1 sister). We moved around a LOT, so I am not really from one particular place. I like to call Katy, Texas my home though.
Recent news, my Dad & Mother-in-Law were diagnosed with Terminal Cancer in April/May of 2005. My dad passed away 5-Dec-05 .
