Sun Aug. 10 a rocking chair

When Dipti came to clean, she checked out the baby bed and it’s softness and wanted to know again how soon till its arrival

 Lonnie made a trip into Khulna in search of a rocking chair. At a street where they have a whole string of furniture stores he stopped and started by going in the 1st one and then the next etc. What is readily available are some mammoth wooden chairs that take up Lots of room and rock so far back that you feel like your going over backwards and are so large that I cannot rest my feet on the floor!?! I do not understand why such a large rocking chair is so popular when as a general rule, the ladies are small here!?! Anyway, by about the 3rd store a man met Lonnie at the door and wanted to help, he said he was driving by on his motorcycle when he saw Lonnie stop up the street. Lonnie showed him a picture of a glider rocking chair like he was looking for. And the reply was, “No, a nice rocking chair like that is not available in Khulna, maybe Dhaka!” But, the man went with him to the rest of the furniture stores on the street and explained to each one, what Lonnie was looking for. “Not available.” Then this helper told Lonnie, “There is 1 more place to check, across the street. I will help you across.” He turned back across the street once they made it to the other side. And Lonnie went in to ask. The man immediately replied, “Yes, we have that chair.” And he took him up to the 3rd floor. It was there alright! Complete with lime green cushions😂 But he showed Lonnie the other fabric color samples and said he could order one and have it here in 15 days. And that is what they did, so we can have a rocking chair to use for our baby #4😌

Laundry… + bedding and the baby clothes that I have.

Annslie got in the pool a bit but the big girls are not very enchanted by it anymore.. possibly a bit spoiled after the Hotel pool swimming.?.

 Worked on zigzagging the edges of the pcs for the last dress I cut out and also a dress I’ve been wearing that I’d just used pinking shears...
