Finally! We Got a Crib!

Okay, after much consternation, and even more searching for the perfect crib for our upcoming arrival; we finally made the purchase. We had found a crib and armoir combo at Burlington that we wanted, but the armoir was discontinued and was the floor model. After several visits to Burlington with "Big Mark" (aka: Grandpa Tippets), we finally negotiated a fair deal on the set. Thank Goodness our lengthy search finally came to an end (Chris may say that Andrea's search finally came to an end). It's a good thing that Chris is so patient and can deal with a wife who can't make decisions easily.

Oh, but wait that was not our last visit to Burlington. We had to go back on Friday to pick up the car seat and stroller that I had been waiting to come in for over a month. We also decided to pick out the crib bedding. I had my eye on a blue turtle set, but still had trouble making the decision. I left the decision up to Chris, I thought it would be easier for him to make the decision, and he seemed to really enjoy looking at the bedding. However, he had a hard time deciding on one himself. We narrowed it down to a few sets, and then took the sets and held them up to the crib. Wendy (Grandma Tippets) was with us, and she went as far has asking other customers what they thought.

We finally decided on one that would match best in our bedroom since the baby's nursery will be in our room for a while. Oh, and of course it has a sports theme. Who would have quessed that Chris would pick a sports themed bedding set (haha). Anyways, it looks absolutely adorable.

The big armoir was able to hold all the wonderful gifts from the baby shower that Kayelyn, Dana, Wendy, and my Visting Teachers threw for me (pictures will come soon I need to get them from my cousin Kayelyn).

Mark and Chris spent Saturday setting up the crib, as I cleaned and organized my little heart out until I could barely move anymore (I was hoping it would put me into labor, but no such luck). Then, we rearranged our bedroom to make it fit. It's a good thing that we have a really big bedroom. We are so excited to place our "little guy" in his crib. He is already spoiled, and doesn't even know it.
