Dear Baby, congratulations! This week is quite a milestone, as from here on, if you surprise us and come early, the doctors will try their best to help you live.. at least here in the US; this varies by country. We are so happy that you are with us as we walk this fine line between hope and fear.
Sooo, to celebrate Daddy and Mummy went out and bought your crib!
First a little on our shopping strategy:
Strategic move #1: We used the Baby Bible (Baby Bargains 101), and got the cheapest one with an A rating. Well no wait, Mummy decided against Ikea, in the hopes that you have a sibling someday and we need it to last.
Strategic move #2: We waited until the July 4th weekend. Happy Birthday America, and Happy Coupon deals to us.
Ok, here it is - it's the espresso colour version of this crib. We hope you like it, and more importantly we hope you SLEEP in it. We want you to know that both mummy and daddy are very good sleepers so you have big shoes to fill.
And don't think we stopped there.. nooo, we also bought you a dressing station/chest of drawers. We got the bottom one (double dresser) but in the top colour combo (espresso/tan). We hope to have this piece when you come home to visit from university, yeeears from now.
And speaking of adult.. don't think we didn't buy something for ourselves. Technically the glider chair is for you, but I suspect it's also for our sanity.
And now? Well now we get to head to Target (pron Tar-J) so they can tell us what else we need! What could a baby possibly need beyond breast milk and cloth diapers? Don't laugh at us, Baby, we're learning..
