Pregnancy Savings ;)

Well we are almost half way through Week 25. Time is flying by us! Our sweet Bryson could be here in 12 weeks! We have all of his furniture & his room is finished except for the odd & end stuff & his monkey mural hasn't been started yet! (Pictures of his room are to come) Today, Justin & I did some shopping & it actually turned out to be some bargain shopping (MY FAVORITE! It makes me feel better about spending the money ;)

We have been looking for the PERFECT glider. Well we thought we were ahead of the game, but evidently you should purchase a glider as soon as you find out you are pregnant if you want a special wood & special fabric! We found a glider we LOVED but it was just too big, so we decided against it. So I had looked at the gliders online at "Babies R Us" and found one but wanted to sit in it first before we bought it. We couldn't find it (so we thought) so we found something else. We knew we wanted cherry wood to match his furniture, but the fabric could be dark tan, brown or green. Well after we matched it all we agreed on dark tan or green. So we asked the lady if we could get this glider in those specific colors & the sign said "Delivery in 7-10 business days" so we were like that's perfect! I asked about the delivery & she told me the estimated date was approx. 12-14 weeks (beginning to mid Dec) I was quickly told her that wasn't going to work! What if the glider comes after Bryson? I just knew it would require us to put it together!! What if it comes when we are at the hospital & it sits outside for a couple days? So we asked how do we get the 7-10 business day delivery & she told us we had to get the the exact fabric & wood as the floor model. Back to "square one" we were, then we discovered the glider & ottoman combo that I had originally seen online & it came in cherry wood & dark tan fabric & sat very nicely!! So needless to say it was the winner!

But best of all we had a 20% off coupon & a $10 gift card for registering at "Babies R Us" so we saved $75!! :)

I've also had a hard time getting comfortable when its time to go to bed. Everyone including the Dr. told me to try the "Pregnancy Pillow". I have been using a spare pillow, but as my belly grows it just wasn't doing the trick for me. So, I broke down today & bought the "Preggle Body Pillow". I haven't used it yet, so tonight will be the test! We also had a $10 off coupon if you spent $30 or more. The pillow was originally $54.99, so we ended up paying right at $46 with the coupon & tax!

I think my pillow will get a lot of use!! Looks like it will have a new owner during the day while we are at work!! ;)

I also bought stuff to make a cute sign to hang on Bryson's door! Pictures of my project will come soon!
