New Furniture

We headed toward the mall this afternoon to go shopping for our new addition. We had some coupons for one store and a gift card to another. Turns out we ended up purchasing our crib among a couple of new outfits. The crib was returned to the store because of a small chip on a part of the bed. It was discounted already and then I had a 20% off one item. It worked out pretty well. It works well with the furniture that Robert grew up with, so we are only getting a crib. We can use the desk as the changing table for now and it has a dresser. So now someone needs to come over and help move a couple of extra pieces out of the baby's room and we will almost be good to go! I have also decided instead of buying a bed set that we don't use half of (won't use the cute bumpers or the quilt), I was going to make a crib skirt, get a cute sheet and decorate with accessories. Instead, I have found a cute crib skirt that doesn't break the bank, I can pair it with many different colored crib sheets (I chose red) and get the breathable bumper and we're good to go. The crib skirt is ordered and the other pieces have been purchased. We now just need to buy a mattress. Slowly we will have a room for our little boy!

Makenna is the cutest thing. When asked where baby Eli is, she will come to me, lift my shirt and rub my belly. And will give him "kisses" when asked, of course! I love our little girl.

Well, tomorrow is the first day of month end and my nose is still stuffy, so I need to get my rest!
