We went to Garden City over the weekend to celebrate Larry's 63rd birthday and while we were there we picked up the baby crib from Mark & Amy. We are going to borrow the one that they bought for Timothy a few years back (ha! already 6 years!) instead of buying a new one...can't see much point in buying one when Ryan's sister has a perfectly good crib that's not being used! I have a maple twin bed that I used as a child & we wanted to go ahead and use it in the baby's room - the cool thing is that the crib is about the same color as the bed. I've found a dresser online that we can use as a changing table & then it has a hutch that can be added & part of it converts to a bedside table. There is a matching armoire too! I need to go look at it in person before I order it though...I've been known to be extremely picky about my furniture (no way, you say!) but it looks like it will match in style & color as well. 
Us girls went shopping and we stopped at a baby store that is going out of business downtown. Everything in the store was 25% off & amazingly enough they had the Lambs & Ivy Froggy Tales bedding that we picked out! I had already researched prices online & because of the sale it was a great deal. The lady at the store said that she had already sold 2 sets earlier that day - I guess it is a popular set! So now I am really excited to start putting the nursery together. The only thing is that I really need to get the carpet ordered for the basement this week so we can get all our furniture placed where it belongs. Plus ordering all the other things for the nursery...deciding on a rocking chair & furniture, buying a crib mattress...gosh...babies are expensive & a lot of work even before they are born!
In health news I am back to waking up at 3 am again. Mostly I have to potty & get a drink, then the baby starts kicking up a storm & then I get hungry...I guess this probably won't change much once the baby gets here - except he's the one who is going to be hungry at 3 in the morning! I've started having back pain & trouble getting in a comfortable position to go to sleep...I've got to see if I can find a better pillow solution. Oh, and the wonders of heartburn...I got to experience my first sleepless night with heartburn this weekend...wonderful, just wonderful! Ryan had recorded the show Las Vegas & we watched it last night when we got home, there is a character named Delinda who is starting to experience the back pain & heartburn of pregnancy & Ryan commented how nice it was that Delinda & I were going through the same pregnancy experiences together...ha ha...he's so funny.
