We finally went shopping on Sunday and finalized Gavin's new bedroom furniture. It should be here the 3rd week of March and then we can work on moving his dressers into the nursery and getting his new room all put together. After shopping at many stores, and going back to Hank's (where we bought his) three different times, we decided on this set:
We ordered it in a full size though, so it should be something he can keep until he's college age (but who wants to think about that?!?!?). It has the 4 drawers under the bed, and there's a door at the foot of the bed that he can go into to hide or use for storage. Jarrod already has plans of using tap lights under there for it to be a little hideout.
So now we need to buy a full size mattress and new bedding. He's really getting into playing soccer and baseball, so he decided he wants a sports theme in his new room. We're looking at this bedding set right now...it seems like a really good deal.
Then we can accent the rest of the room with other sports items. He really likes the soccer ball pillow. But, my concern is that his bed rails won't work on this new bed, and it's even higher up than his current bed, so we made need to buy these so he doesn't fall out of the bed:
I've never seen anything like them, but One Step Ahead (the catalog that has everything you could ever want for a child!) has them and they get great reviews. Maybe we'll see how he does in the bed without them first...I'm not sure.
One last thing - we also found a bathing suit for me for this summer. While we were out shopping, we went into Motherhood for me to try some on and I ended up with this one:
Except I'm planning to wear it with my current brown swim bottoms, which are more like boy-shorts...they cover more of the fat!
