Chubba baby Mr. Yin and his brother, the other Mr. Yin.
Nothing to do with Black Friday, but cute nonetheless.
We did it. We braved Black Friday this year.
Not the crazy before-the-sun-rises sales. Just good sales for after the sun comes up.
We headed to JoAnn's to get some flannel that was only $1.29 a yard. Plus an additional 20% off if you were there by noon.
We picked up a few other things we needed while we were there since pretty much everything was on sale. Now my craigslist-find rocking chair will have a cushion; a big fatty soft one. And 50% cheaper than it would have been!
I was surprised how friendly everyone (customer and employees) was. Especially considering the wait at the cut counter. Our number we picked up first thing was 66 and they were currently helping 88. Only 78 people in front of us. 78 people with carriages full of bolts of fabric that needed cutting. The flannel aisle was chaos.
It was well worth the hour of our time spent, however. We saved $27 and only spent $15!
So Black Friday was good to us.
A side note on being due on December 25:
One fun thing about being so visibly pregnant is I get lots of inquiries about my due date. After a response of "Christmas Day", people are delighted and giggle and then warn me about making sure to celebrate the birthday separate from Christmas.
I get even more exclamations of joy when I say we're having a surprise--maybe boy, maybe girl. Then people take a closer look and guess Edible's gender. Usually people say boy because of how low-riding this little one is.
Get your guesses in!

I think it's a girl and she'll be born on the 26th and she'll be 7lb. 2 oz. and 18 inches.
boy. 12/25. 9 lbs. 21 inches.
Erica, that's not even nice.
