Call Us Crazy But....
We already got our baby's furniture. I know it's way early (and it was even earlier when we actually ordered it), but the furniture that we really wanted was on sale at Babies R Us, so we went ahead and got it. We had been to Babies R Us a few times because our friends just had a baby, so we knew what we liked. We went there one night a few weeks ago as part of our weekly round of store visits (Sam's, Best Buy, Target, the Mall, and now Babies R Us), and we saw the 2 furniture sets that we liked on sale. We asked them how long they would be on sale because I thought it was crazy to buy furniture at 9 weeks or whatever I was then. They said that the sale had expired but they just forgot to take down the signs, and they took them down after I asked that. They said they would honor the sale that night since the signs were left up, but it was over. So we're like what the heck, we're going to eventually have a baby, so we might as well get what we like while it's on sale. We ordered a set after trying to decide between the two for a long time, but when we got home and read the reviews, we realized we should have chosen the other one, so we went back a couple days later, and I used my master negotiating skills to get them to switch it over to the other set and still give us our discount. They delivered the furniture two days ago, and here's what it looks like...

I love it! What did the other set look like?
oh yay! I love that set.
cute furniture! I don't think it's crazy that you bought it so early. The baby will need it someday! :)
awww.... that's adorable!!! Are you sure you don't want to give it as a gift??? haha
I love it! I've always wanted a crib like that. Good choice!
You guys are funny! It's a pretty set though. When's the minivan coming? Oh, and I love your list of weekly stores...you're lucky to have a husband who likes to shop, Colby would whine the whole time.
Great choices! The furniture is beautiful! Perfect for either a boy or a girl! :)
I don't think it is a bad idea buying your babies things now. Besides, your excited about having a baby so why not enjoy it.
By the way, I love the furniture!!!
Way cute!! And good job on the negotiating skills! You must have been taking lessons from Michael Scott. Am I right? haha j/k
The furniture is really really pretty. I'm so jealous. The only thing we got was a crib and that was secondhand. *sigh*
Hey!! Before I forget, I'd like to see a picture of your forming belly, so as soon as you get it, post it!! It's so exciting!!
Nice furniture! Are you going to paint the walls or anything for the Nursery?
Hello Britney and Brock. I am a blog stalker.. Actually I found you through Maureen's blog...do you even remember who I am? Courtney Sanderson? You guys are adorable. Congratulations on the baby. I feel so old, now. Weren't you still in primary when we moved into the ward? We live in Bella Vista, AR. My girls are almost 12 and my boys are 7 and 5. I noticed that you are friends with Josie. Her sister, Sarah, is my best friend. Crazy. Take care. I hope you keep feeling good, Britney. Here is my blog..

Yay! I knew this day would come! I love the dark wood furniture. My little bit of advice is tell your parents you would like a glider rocker, work your magic! You will love having a special chair to relax in.
