Baby purchases

Baby girl is already getting a tad spoiled by friends and family who are so generous and giving her adorable gifts - mainly cute clothing!  It's fun to see so much pink after all the blue with Trevor!   It's also hard when all retailers are practically giving summer clothes away right now and Sara has the time to shop :)
Not sure if we mentioned but the home we bought had a pink bedroom already so we lucked out there although there is a kids wallpaper border up that we're not entirely sure that we'll keep.  We'll see.  It kinda fits with the bedding we purchased but we're just not really wallpaper people. 

Our 'theme' for her nursery is pinks and aquas and bright colors in general.  We decided against a whole crib set, rather just opting for the sheet and skirt this time around.  We didn't really see any quilts we liked and they only use the bumper for 3 months or less anyway, but here is the sheet:


We've found some artwork and other stuff that will really tie the room together.  Once more of it is up we'll share some pics :)

The other big purchase we finalized this past weekend was the double stroller!  We went to the baby store just to look at strollers but ended up loving one and they had a great deal on it - 20% off plus a free 2nd seat or infant carrier!  Since we already have a great infant carrier and 2 bases for our cars we opted for the free 2nd seat even though the infant carrier was $80 more dollars. So it is the Britax b-ready which gets great reviews from Moms and Dads and it looks a lot like Trevor's Teutonia stroller system already so we're used to it!  It is such an easy to stroller to push too!

It can be used as a single stroller with the seat which reclines to 4 positions or take the seat out and clip in just the infant carrier:

And/or you can put in a second seat...which T loved and wouldn't get out of at the store.  He liked how he could stretch his legs and use the storage carrier for his toys (and he could reach them all himself). 


Matter of fact there are 14 different configurations for this stroller...we'll use the top row, the pic on the right in the second row and the first four from the left on the bottom row!  This is going to be so fun!!


And with that the blog is caught up.....WOO HOO!!!!
