nesting...maybe?

i couldn't hold out any longer. i went by baby depot yesterday and with the help of doris...found a perfect bed and what they call a "combo". the combo is basically a 4 drawer chest...with a top that can be used as a changer.

i just worried so much about the pieces looking right together, about something being wrong, about paying for shipping/oversize charges, etc with ordering stuff online.

i really didn't expect to find anything at baby depot. but i did. and i love it. i wanted clint to say he liked it too...so we went back last night after american idol was over. (go david cook!)

clint was so excited. he walked around to the beds and shook them all. just to make sure they were sturdy. he is just a little :) concerned about the safety of everything for this baby. when we got home, we set up the room. he put the bed together and put everything in the room.

i couldn't help but get all the stuffed animals that this baby already has and put them in the bed. even though there is no mattress and no sheet...still i had to put the animals out. this goes back to when i was a kid. i really still believe that animals come alive at night...and if that's the case, i want to make sure they aren't stuffed in a tupperware bin. when i was little, i would lay all my stuffed animals out and lay pillows under their heads and cover them with blankets.

this morning before we left, we took another look in the room. it's pretty perfect. we still have to figure out some other furniture pieces...put up pictures...and other stuff. but it's really nice having the bed there.

this gets more real every single day.
