The baby's room!

I thought it was about time for me to finally show what our baby's room looks like! Not to mention I have finally worked on it a bit. I was waiting to organize the room until after we had our baby shower so that way I would know what I needed to buy and all that jazz. So far we haven't had to buy much because some wonderful people at church and work were getting rid of stuff and gave it to us.



In this first picture we have our two car seats and the stroller. The car seat on top fits with the stroller. It was our 3rd baby purchase. I have heard they are really nice to have and so we drove all the way up to Denver on a very nasty night to get it. It was hailing and raining and snowing the whole way so it took us a long time to get there. But that was a good deal for a stroller/carseat combo for $80. And it is Graco, who from what I have seen, get good reviews. There are also lots of clothes hanging up in the closet. I will take them down probably but I didn't have a place to put them originally so I put them there to get them out of the way!



This is a swing a lady at church gave us and the bag under the swing unzips into a changing mat for travel! I thought that was pretty neat. Someone from work gave it to me. It has the hooter hider that Bethany gave me and sling from Jennifer and front pack carrier. Then the bassinet that my boss gave to me because he was cleaning out his house and didn't need it for his grandkids anymore.


This is our very neat crib. Another family in our ward didn't need it for their son any more because he got too big so they gave it to us and then we got the mattress at our baby shower as well as the bedding. You can see the blue thing under the crib, its a baby bath that we got at the shower, and then one of those bouncy vibrating chairs and also a graco playpen that people from work gave to us. The boxes and bags next to the crib are clothes from newborn to 9 months that I need to go through and separate and put away! We paid $60 total for the two big boxes. They are packed with clothes!


The cabinet we got from our neighbors after they had cleaned out a rental property. They are the maintenance guys and so they get to keep and sell whatever the find left at properties which is pretty sweet. So we needed an extra shelf so they gave us that and it is full of blankets that we have accumulated over the last few months, and burp rags, and games and books! Then we have my awesome massager. Dad and Mom gave that to me a few years ago for Christmas but I like to sit in it and unwind. The chair is Chris' office chair that he loves. He never uses it so I stole it for my massager.



This is the changing table that our mexican neighbors were throwing away. We used to have the matching crib but we sold that when we got the nicer, sturdier one. Isn't that a neat diaper cake? One of Chris' co-workers gave it to him yesterday. The layers are all different size diapers. I thought it was pretty sweet. We got another cake but it wasn't as tall. It did have other stuff tucked in it as well for the baby bath. The changing table also doubles into his "dresser" since we don't want to buy one if we are moving at the end of the summer. Just another piece of furniature to lug around! So I bought the storage bins and now I just need to separate all the clothes and put his current size into the bins. Then we will be all set for this baby! Its only two and a half weeks away until my due date. I could have this baby any time! Chris and I are really excited to meet our little miracle...
