Shopping Trip... 1/12/08

Once we found out we were having a boy, we decided that we could start seriously looking at furnishing the soon to be nursery (previously Brian's office). The green carpet in the room is going to limit some of the things we do but since we're probably looking at doing an outdoorsy or animal inspired room, it should work out well.

After some furniture searching at Babys R Us on Wednesday, we went back out Saturday to see what was out there. We first went to a USA Baby store and walked around. We had found some things we kind of liked but were going to leave and then, on the way out, found a crib that we had missed the first time through. We really loved the crib and, not surprisingly since Holly spotted it first, it was on sale! We took down some of the information about it and went home, fully expecting that we'd go back another day. After looking on the crib-maker's website we found that there was also a store in Carmel that carried it. We decided to go ahead and head up to the Carmel store and found it was even more on sale there.

After some checking on the other colors that the crib came in we found our favorite (the first color we saw) and went ahead and bought it. Here' s a picture...

We also ordered the dresser that you see in the back of the picture (without the hutch). The dresser will also be our changing table in the nursery. They had to order the furniture but we'll find out soon when it will be delivered. We've got plenty of cleaning and rearranging to do before then...
