Well, no luck at IKEA for baby furniture.  The cribs were very reasonably priced, but they didn’t have ANY features (drop-down guardrail or adjustable mattress platform.)  But, they did have some fun accessories for kids/babies rooms.

We stopped in a Pottery Barn Kids while at the mall this weekend and they have a nice nursery planner – a grid where you can plot out the room dimensions and add furniture stickers.  So, we took the measurements of the room and now have an idea of what we have room for.  I think we’re going to get a crib, dresser with a changing table topper… and maybe a little shelf for extra storage.  We don’t have a closet in the room, so any added storage would be great.

I started looking at crib bedding sets online; I think that we’ll pick that first and decorate the rest of the room around that.  I’ve seen some cute sets by Dwell.  I don’t really like anything that’s super frilly, but I still want to keep it fun.  We’ll have to paint the walls a light color because that room gets the least light in the whole house.

The baby must be going through a growth spurt because I really feel huge all of the sudden!  I’ve been using the Elasticity Belly Oil by Belli every morning after a shower.  I think I should start using at night too!  I can’ t believe how stretched/taut my belly already feels.
