We bought the baby's room furniture this past weekend. We thought it took 12 weeks to order and deliver which is true, except when we got to the store on Saturday, we found out that the furniture we wanted was being sold as a floor model (they aren't discontinuing it, they just have too many of that set on the floor). It just so happens that it's in perfect shape and it's the exact pieces we wanted. SO, we bought it and for like $400 cheaper too!!!! Since it was a floor model, we could have it delivered whenever. I talked to the furniture movers and they apparently are already going to be in our area on Saturday so that's when we are having it delivered.
People will probably think I'm crazy for having our baby furniture set up 5 months early, but hey, at least I'm prepared!!!
We weren't as lucky finding a glider/ottoman. We really like the brand Dutailier, but we are finding very few sellers in this area. Babies r Us has 2 models and then we can special order the finish and fabric and that might be what we do. I don't really care that it takes 10 weeks, although I've heard horror stories about special ordering and I wasn't too thrilled with the knowledge (or lack thereof) that the sales people there had. I wasn't too happy about the pricetag either but after shopping and researching, I've found that to get a really good nice glider with the features I want (nursing stool, covered arms, etc), I'm just going to have to pay that much. We'll do more searching for the glider this weekend. Oh and I'll post pictures of our new baby furniture set up in the baby's room.
Still counting down the days till our big ultrasound (and no, no movement yet)...
