first baby items

so today i bought our first actual baby items (i have bought a blanket..but thats it)...stones bedding! you would think that i would want to get a big ticket item first...you know like a crib or changeing table...or car seat, but nope...i HAD to get the bedding first. i wanted to match the crib to the bedding instead of trying to find bedding that i loved that would match a crib. see...at first i had invisioned that i would get a black crib..not matter what gender our baby was, but im glad that i held off, because now that i found the bedding that i like a black crib would not have matched. this is what i settled on
simple, clean, and classy. i'm not one of the cutesy nursery types...i didn't want baby animals, or airplanes, or baseballs....i just wanted something modern and simple..and i found it! i think it will be perfect because i didn't wanna walk into that room and be overwhelmed with pattern (which some of the bedding i initally liked would have done) because the room is fairly small. i got the curtains too...we have french doors in the nursery that go out into the backyard so i was thrilled to find the curtains. now i can start finding a crib that i like.

I love the bedding. I kept it simple with brooklin too. Hers is pink and lime green with stripes and poka dots. I ended up getting a white crib from kmart that was around $200 for the crib and mattress. Its way cute and it makes into a bed as well for when she gets older. Good luck with the shopping!!!!

Cribs are spendy, but get one you like...good ones last forever-even with all the teeth marks! Love the bedding!

love it! Blue and brown are my favorite colors...(and they are in almost every room in my house, including Colby's nursery!)
