Looking forward to: Ordering a glider for the nursery.

I know, I know....I'm a day late! Thank-you to some of you for reminding me! I remembered last night after I was already in my pj's, and the thought of getting dressed again (mostly putting a bra back on) seemed unbearable! 

Thankfully nothing too eventful happened this week. I've been feeling baby girl move all the time, she was actually moving when Andrew took the picture tonight :) Last week was a crappy work week, I worked really late two nights, which makes me completely exhausted these days. I had another draining two hour meeting tonight...blah! I literally feel like I am counting down my time left there....less than three months now! I am almost positive that my last day will be June.7!

This weekend was all about home renos and gliders! We spent all day Saturday looking for tile for our basement, and for vanities for the basement bathroom. We also went to the baby stores in Waterloo to look for a glider for the baby's room. There are so many beautiful ones, like this one:

but they are between $1000-$1200....we are not paying that much! We would all need to get an ottoman or foot stool, and we have no room for one.

So, I think we've decided on this one:

It's called the Benji Recliner from Best Chairs and it's only half the price of the one above. It's going to be really tight in the nursery, but I'd rather the room be tight and have a super comfy chair, then have the room look nice with a less comfy chair. Also, since it's a recliner, we won't have the make room for an ottoman. I think we'll get it in the gray colour above, it's a lot dark than the gray colour on the walls, but that's fine.

My co-worker who was using the same midwife as us had her baby this morning, she also had a girl. She ended up having a c-section, so i'm not sure if she'll be able to share too much of her experience with the midwife.

I really want to go on a babymoon....like really badly! I have lots of paid time to take off from work, but with the expenses from the baby and the basement reno, we really can't afford it. Ah well....a girl can dream!

Until next week.....
