Furniture!

We finally decided on and bought the baby's furniture! After finding out that the crib is going to take 14-16 weeks to come in, we had to act fast! In 16 weeks I will be 35 weeks along, so that won't give me much time to finish the nursery decorating. Oh well, what can we do? The armoire and the dresser were in stock, so those are in our garage for now. We didn't realize that the pieces come assembled, so the 2 boxes in our garage are HUGE! Here is the pic of the Simmons collection we decided on....it's pretty here, but even prettier in person!
We plan on keeping this awhile because the crib converts into a toddler bed, then a daybed and finally a full-size bed with headboard and footboard. We had to buy the toddler rails and the bed rails as well....guess those will stay in our attic for a couple of years until we need them! We wanted to get something where all of the pieces were large enough to keep for a long time. Most of the furniture we had been looking at had tiny chests of drawers, and we knew that as our baby grows older, we would need bigger furniture. This is the reason we decided on this particular collection...big pieces to grow in to!

Mike went to Kirk's bachelor party this weekend in Houston. I think they had a lot of fun, but I'm sure I will never truly know everything they did! They like to keep the details secretive!

  1. I LOVE it! Very nice. I've heard about those cribs that convert into bigger beds- great idea. I can't wait to see it in person.
