Woke up to see people on FB that actually got A LOT of snow today too. That is absolutely INSANE for here. Saw on the news that in recorded history (just from 1800something) it has NEVER snowed here this early before.
We didn't get any in our area (thankfully), but it looks like maybe as little as 10-20miles from here got 3 inches.
Just so unheard of for this time of year, especially considering that it got to mid-80's just a few days ago.
We just got a lot of snow w/ just a tiny bit of sleet thrown in every once in a while. Cold cold and cold.
Didn't stop us from going out though. Talked DH in to going to look at cribs since he wants an expensive one and we would have to start payments on it very soon to keep costs from building up all at once.
So we went to the same place we got Zoe's crib and..... we found one and got the matching dresser to go with it! WOO! Or more like, we picked one and will be paying on it for the next few months lol ;)
It's so nice and just what we both were wanting. He wanted nice thick solid wood legs on it, and I just wanted gray lol. We did both want a solid back on it too.
It's called the Tillen collection in gray wash. Here's a link if you're interested in taking a look at it.

We decided to just go ahead and get the dresser too since we kind of regret going cheap on Zoe's dresser. Nothing wrong with it, but you can tell the difference in quality. Hers.. we'll have to eventually replace, his should last until he moves out and takes it with him. Just a good sturdy solid wood dresser.
Was not expecting to get anything but it was exactly what we were wanting. Just don't ask how much O_O There's a reason this place has their own little layaway plan.
We then went to lunch then grocery shopping. Once Upon a Child is right next to the grocery store so we wanted to go in to see if they might have a bassinet. Was talking to DH on the way there and told him that if we can get a bassinet used, I'd rather do that than get one new. Just not worth it to buy new if we're only going to use it for 2, maybe 3 months.
They didn't have any unfortunately but we looked around some more, bought more shoes for Zoe, a pretty new coat, couple of cheap toys and.... baby boy clothes! :D
Right next to the toys they had clearance half off stuff and I couldn't resist looking through it.
Bought a cute fuzzy overalls thing that we'll need a shirt for in 0-3, a cute rocket sleep sack in 0-3... but the best score? This cute little body suit in newborn.
It's PERFECT... especially with the theme of the nursery!
It looks a lot bigger than newborn and I hope it actually is so we can put him in it all the time lol.
WOOT! Just feel so lucky to have found it, plus half off it was only 1.25 :D
It's just feeling a little more real now and also like we don't have any time lol. We'll probably be taking a trip across town to go to buybuybaby and babies r us to look for an infant carrier soon... and check out the once upon a child there as well for a bassinet. I told DH we could probably wait until January but he wants to get one sooner which is fine with me. But we have to go before all of the Christmas shopping traffic nightmare starts. That part of town is already terrible for traffic at any given time...add in everyone and their mother wanting to go to the shops and mall there.... holy headaches Batman!
