more baby pretties

i'm getting in the baby mode again after the ultrasound, so yesterday while we were at phil & sara's, mike & phil got down the old mattress and bumper pad from mike's cradle. i'm so excited to use the cradle...it's absolutely beautiful and there is just something about laying my baby down in the same bed that his/her daddy was laid in that is just exhilarating to me.
so today i got online and searched for a new mattress, sheets, and a bumper pad. i got a little frustrated because, although there were lots of choices, many were outrageously priced or had out-of-this world shipping. finally, i got on wal-mart.com and low and behold they had some cute things. I ordered the new mattress and little bumper pad/sheet/blanket set for way less than all the other places and the shipping was free (i had it shipped to store). the whole cradle set was less than just the bumper pad from any other store i looked at and it's a cute gingham green apple pattern that will look pretty up against the dark wood of the cradle (i just hope it's quality). mike gave me the go-ahead to just order it since it could only be purchased online (& i was excited). the other awesome thing about ordering from wal-mart online is that i can return anything to the store & get my money back, which is a relief.

mike and i have also worked on our wal-mart & target registries in store & i've gotten hooked on looking through those and updating & adding to them online. yay!

very cute, i am so ready to plan your shower. i wish our house would be done at that time, so we could have it there, but oh well:)
