So, this weekend was super successful!!
Thanks to our generous parents - our sweet baby girl now has a place to sleep!
On Saturday we went for one last look at nursery furniture. USA Baby in Franklin had the most selection - and most of the furniture lines had higher ratings in Baby Bargains than Restoration Hardware or Pottery Barn Kids! I loved several things at Restoration - but couldn't see spending $2,000+!! Pottery Barn Kids really didn't have anything that I loved, the whites were usually always a weird color.. and the shipping charges are disgusting.
USA Baby had free shipping, huge plus!

We decided to go with the Bonavita Peyton set in white! I had a very tough time choosing between white and espresso - but since we are having a girl, I decided on white! I'm still nervous about it, but everything I see for a girls room has white furniture. We should have everything in 6-8 weeks!!!
Next up, the glider! I decided on a Little Castle Glider.I loved that I could choose from so many designer fabrics!! I picked this Paisley Place, below. The color is more lime green in person, but a very pale lime. It is truly stunning and I'm so happy with it! I never ever go with a wild card - I always go with ivory linen.. or tan linen.. never anything fun. I can not wait to see this chair fully upholstered!!!
I decided against an ottoman.. we debated for days about this one. In the end - plenty of people have gotten along just fine without an ottoman. In our case the ottoman was going to cost half as much as the chair... and we already have a small room - so any saved space will help. If I need a foot stool down the road.. I can always get one. Our chair should arrive no later than April 10th - which is awesome! Mom will be able to see it when she comes for my Baby Shower!
We also were able to register at Babies R Us on Saturday! That was scary and fun!! I thought that I was super prepared with all of my lists - notes.. and reviews. Nope! We got into the 1st isle, Pacifiers... and freaked out! Who needs 1,000 choices on pacifiers?
We survived and I feel like we made some great choices!! I've followed up with reviews online today and made a few adjustments.. as far as adding some items to an amazon.com baby registry, in case anyone looks there.
Lastly we registered at Pottery Barn Kids - I didn't exactly want to.. since I'd rather people buy us useful items from Babies R Us - and not soft cute blankets.. but I know people do as they wish and I'd rather them know the items that I like at PBK.
Exciting exciting stuff! Baby P is almost all taken care of! I believe I know which light fixture I want to order... bedding is pretty well decided.. now we have the fun stuff!!
Hope you all had a great weekend!
