Hubby bought me a nosefrida!! This sounds like a ridiculous thing to be excited about but it has made me so happy!! Let me explain....

A few weeks ago, I wrote a list of all the things we needed to buy for our baby, due in July. DH went through the list like a hot knife through butter, telling me that most of things I had listed were non-essential (including a pushchair!) and everything else we could buy second hand. I was completely deflated. Looking back, I think that perhaps he was just panicked about the length of the list and the seemingly mounting expense because, over the last few weeks, he has asked me for an item off the list every few nights and has researched them one by one..... bless....

When we got to nosefrida on the list, he misheard me and thought I said nose feeder. "Nose feeder, what the heck is a nose feeder?" he asked. Completely mishearing him, I started trying to describe a nosefrida: "It's a tube thing that you put up the baby's nose and...." What?? Why would you feed the baby up their nose??". I'm laughing as I type this - and I laughed so hard that night I had to move onto the next item on the list!!

Anyway, when I got in from work last night there were a series of packages waiting for me. There was a nosefrida plus a box of filters and a regular bulb aspirator as well, so we could try both!! He'd looked it up and ordered them for me!!

I was so touched!!

ps - we bought a travel system a few weeks ago. He thought about it and agreed we needed one after all!
