This week we got Remington's room all set up.
Spencer and I put together his crib. We weren't sure if we were going to keep it or not. We got it for free from a friend back in Utah and didn't know if all of the pieces were there, but it turned out great and we are so excited that it worked out! I love looking at it and imaging him sleeping in there and then I get all giddy and have to calm myself down because we still have a little ways to go before that happens.
Craigslist and goodwill has been great for getting things. We have saved so much money by buying stuff used. We always make sure it doesn't smell and that it looks nice. We bought his dresser, car seat/stroller and rocking chair used and I couldn't be happier with them! I am especially happy about the car seat/stroller because I wanted to get a Chicco and they can be pretty expensive. I found the ones we bought for a great price! And they don't expire till 2017, not that I really buy the expiration dates anyway.
We are still looking for a swing and I want to put in a book shelf of some sort or little side table. We also still need to get some of the basic stuff, like diapers, wipes and bath items (obviously those things will be new). I'm sure there are a few more things I just cant think of them at the moment. I think that we are just going to figure out what else we will need when he comes and we will buy as we go.
Spencer and I got some closet organizers to hang in his closet before we got the dresser. I like the closet organizers better for his clothes. We are going to use the dresser as a changing table and put his diapers and wipes and extra blankets in the dresser.
We are so excited for him to get here! I can't wait to meet him. I wish it was already November!
And now that I'm too big to reach,
he paints my toe nails...
because he loves me
