Up and around

Yep, I am finally up and around today, and actually left the house. I'm not having any pain anymore, just stiffness. I was so down in the dumps about the doctor's letter that Joe even agreed to take me to the mall for some retail therapy. Now that's a switch! I wanted to buy something for Sophie, to remind me that this will happen, regardless of how long it takes. The only problem is, I was so bummed I couldn't find anything to buy! Now I know this is serious! In fact, Joe left Old Navy with a bag full of shorts and shirts, and I got nada. I think I need to see a doctor or something, because this is so unlike me! I can't really buy her any clothes yet, as we have no idea of her age or even what season it will be when we bring her home. I was hoping to buy something for her room, but my heart just wasn't in it. One good thing is that we went to Pottery Barn Kids and I think we are coming closer to agreeing on a color scheme/theme for Sophie's room. Please tell me there are others of you out there whose husbands want this much creative input on your child's nursery! We really like this collection. Or this one. Now I just have to see if I can find something similiar to that somewhere else, because there is no way we can afford PBK. I'm feeling a little better now. I'm finally going to work tomorrow. A big one day work week. I hope I can handle it! :) Well, gotta go. I have to get to bed at a decent time tonight so I can get up at 5:30 a.m. Yuck!

Hmmm... nursery input? When I was pregnant with Jake I was a pain in the ass and I had all his bedding custom made from Bellini. Jack arrived less than 16 months later so he used the same stuff... we left for China without a room ready for Eva so my girlfriends came round and put together a nursery... I had picked out linens (from Bassinetts and Blueberries in Costa Mesa.. check them out for GORGEOUS stuff and great sales).

Also, the Shabby Chic people do a cute line of nursery linens for Target.

I consider myself lucky that my hubby doesn't care what I do when it comes to decorating.

Both of the PBK nursery bedding are darling. Have you checked on eBay?
