Well since Christmas is over we have been gradually buying some of the stuff we have to have for the baby. Trent has painted the nursery, built a dresser, built a crib, and we bought a recliner for the room. It is still not decorated, but some sneak peak pics are below.
We got money from Trent's parents for Christmas so we bought a carseat and stroller...I had to get grey and yellow to match my diaper bag.
We painted the room a gray color that I love. I am going for warm and calm in the nursery. I was originally going to just do grays, browns, and whites with a few accent colors. I saw this bedding for 50 bucks on clearance at target so I bought it. It goes really well and will add some color.
This dresser is my favorite! It is from Ikea. It is gray with white knobs, and I love Ikea because their furniture has organizers that you can buy! Double score. I decided not to get a dresser/changing table combo because I wanted to just get him a nice dresser he can have forever and we won't have to upgrade it later. I am still undecided on whether I want/need a changing table, tell me what you think?!
A belly shot at 25 weeks. Yikes, I never feel like I look this big, until I see a picture!
My chicco carseat. We went to babies r us and played with everything and this was by far the easiest to use, plus it's cute, plus its got the best safety ratings you can get for infant seats! I opted not to get the travel system stroller combo thing because they are huge, so instead we got the carseat caddy. Best. Purchase. Ever. I love how small it is, and its a one-handed fold up, plus the carseat snaps right in. Then when he gets bigger we will get a jogging stroller or something else to use!
My mom bought me this as an alternative to a bassinet. I think I am going to like it. It is portable and the perfect height next to my bed! It's the fisher-price rock and play sleeper.
I saw this idea for a mobile above the crib on pinterest. It's a DIY but I can't decide if it is too girly. I love how it looks, but I am having a BOY, so I don't know yet, what do you all think?
