More Progress in Mason's Digs!

Look at what my hubby did for us this week! Our crib and glider finally arrived and he put them together for me.

I have to tell you just what an amazing deal M's crib was! Ordered it from Walmart online- retail was $162. I read the reviews and they varied but I ordered anyway. This crib looks fabulous and feels really sturdy; not to mention it comes with an attached 3 drawer storage unit with what could be a change table on top (but I placed the CD player and a nightlight on there). It also comes with a little trundle style storage unit on wheels that rolls under the crib which is a little flimsy but still handy! Choosing the espresso colour makes it look even richer and I am so pleased!!!

I plan to pick up the mattress from Costco next week and once I have done that I will have spent, with shipping and taxes, a total of approx. $350 on the full crib (with all that cool storage!!!!) What an incredible buy. The crib is convertible too, if we choose. For those on a budget or even for anyone who just wants more for their money, I recommend this Stork Craft crib!!!

On the downside, the glider cushion colour is not as I had expected. I ordered the limey green one but it is really light and hardly green at all BUT it is comfy and will do the trick for sure!

On the physical front, I am tired and still not really having a full night's sleep. My heart burn is annoying and I am getting tons of leg cramps which is so bizarre to me. My breathing is more laboured and my heart beats very strongly. I think this week, my belly really popped- I am looking much bigger than last week!

More good news this week too - I booked Mom to come see us from April 28th to May 8th for just $400, all in. She arrives late on the 28th and leaves really early on the 8th but that gives us 9 days together and hopefully Mason will be born just before she arrives or as soon as she does...
