We Have Finally Decided!

Ever since we found out this little bean is a boy, we've been looking far and wide for the perfect crib bedding set. You'd think it would be easy - we were expecting very few choices compared to girls' bedding - but we were all wrong! Your choices are quite literally endless and that only adds to the frustration when two otherwise reasonable adults cannot come to a compromise! He doesn't want it to be too baby-ish, I want it to be cute. He wants modern, I want timeless. Ugh! We went back and forth with emails and pictures,

Me: "What about this one?"

Him: "Too girly"

Him: "How about this one?"

Me: "Not quite right"

What a mess! I never thought we'd agree. But today, it finally happened! After weeks of back and forth, I instructed Tripp to choose his top FIVE sets and I would just choose one and that would be that. So this morning, while he was at "work" he finally narrowed down his choices. And ONE that I liked made the top five. (That's right, ONE, sheesh.) Anyway, I'll keep you waiting no longer. We have finally ordered this!We found it on sale at JCPenny.com and just couldn't resist! How could two dog people say no to the cutest dang dog bedding out there? Let's just hope it coordinates with the crib itself!

And just to prove how seriously in the tank we are for this kid already, Tripp found yet another set this morning (see what I mean?) on super-duper deep discount at Overstock.com and we agreed it was too cute to pass up and ORDERED IT TOO!I can hear my mom now, "Oh for heaven sakes!" and I agree, it's insane. But seriously, it was really cheap and got rave reviews (on Amazon.com too) and considering the little guy will be born in winter but still sleeping in his crib next spring/summer, we wanted to have something fresh and bright too.

I know. Spoiled rotten before he even arrives. What can I say?
