What a week

Well this week started off wonderful with my babyshower and then went quickly down hill from there. My husband and I both ended up in the hospital on Tuesday as we came down with either the stomach flu or food poisoning (the hospital couldn't say which it was). Let me tell you being pregnant and getting sick is absolutely horrible, I mean it's horrible when you're not pregnant but pregnancy tends to make it twice as bad. I ended up getting 3 bags of IV fluid I was so dehydrated and am still trying to get caught back up. Luckily my husband is feeling much better only a little tired now. I am feeling better but I just can't seem to get all of my energy back. I am just glad that we are able to eat food now (I still have to watch what I eat as I am dealing with really bad heartburn). Oh, I forgot to mention the most important thing, our little girl is doing wonderfully. They had me hooked up to a monitor while in the hospital and her heartbeat was perfect and she was squirming all around, still is actually. :-) I really hope that we don't get this again.

Baby Shower

I had my first baby shower on Sunday, feels weird that I have already had a baby shower. All went well. I was a little nervous as to who would show and if we would get any of the items off of our registry but everything was great. There were actually about 25 people that showed, a couple of which I didn't even know (how nice of them to come and give us a gift). We got two of the big items off our registry (the pack-n-play and the high chair), several outfits, 3 activity mats, misc bath stuff and general items that we will need for our little girl. Overall it was a great shower and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves.

Found the nursery bedding

I was able to find bedding that both me and my husband liked and goes perfectly with the nursery colors, YAY!!!! I ended up going to babiesrus and just buying the bedding set. There are a few items that I won't use but at least our little girl has bedding now. The bedding is lavender and white with pink and lavender butterflies. I will have to take some pics of the nursery and get them posted shortly. Sorry I have been really bad about taking pics.

Change in bedding

Well, we received the bedding that I had ordered for our little girl's room and ended up sending it back. It really didn't look how the pictures portrayed it. The colors were actually pretty dull and there was a stain on the quilt (looked like someone accidently marked it with a black magic marker). Oh and they sent me a basket liner instead of the sheet that I had purchased. Needless to say I won't be ordering from that site again.

So we are now on the lookout for some new bedding. We have a set in mind but I was hoping to be able to purchase the items separately as I don't want/need 3 of the items that come in the bedding sets that you can purchase. I haven't been able to find a place that sells anything other than the 6 piece set though. I may have to break down and just order the 6 piece set.

If anyone has suggestions on places to go for crib bedding please let me know.

Hope all is well with everyone, pics of the nursery will be coming soon.
