mama's day & other stuff...

i hope all the mama's and mama's-to-be (sam & kaley) had a wonderful mother's day...we had a great day. derek and the girls got me a necklace (that i had been hinting for :) and then after church we went over to papa & nema's house for a BBQ & swimming. the weather was great!

other stuff going on:
we finally got the baby's crib set (well, all but the changing table...babies-r-us had to order it, so it's on the way). i've been SO ready to start decorating the nursery (i know it's kinda early). anyways, our plans changed a little...we didn't save any of the baby furniture from kaia and leia, so we needed to get a whole new set & at first we were gonna buy our landlord's crib and changing table/dresser combo but their little boy decided that he still loves his crib & she has no idea when they're gonna be done with it. than...i found a really nice shabby chic set on craigslist but after talking about it more, we just decided to get a new set which i think is a lot smarter in the long run because the dresser is separate (not combined with a changing table), so we'll be able to use it even when she's not a baby anymore & the crib transitions into a real full sized bed later. can you tell i'm trying to justify spending more than twice the $ we were gonna spend. haha. i'll take pics of the nursery when the changing table comes in, later this week. stay tuned (i know...cheesy :).

Shan! I am so with you! Hahaha....we totally have the exact same rational for spending $$$ on our baby's furniture! I just keep saying, "but I know she'll have this furniture until she moves out of the house and goes to college!" and it makes me feel better :)

Do you have a picture of the furniture you chose? What color are you going with?

And thanks for the shout out! I did have a great Mother's Day, glad you did too!
