Nursery

So, although it's not quite there... I thought I'd upload some pics of the nursery. I'm very proud of my traced tree!

So, with the use of a digital projector I got the tree up there, thanks must go to these people for the tree pattern but I'm pleased with the way it has turned out. Now all to do with it is make a little owl and bird to sit on the branches. 

This is our barginous Argos wardrobe that we built with the help of Mr W.J.Woolnough! The little wicker baskets are supposed to be on the changing table but we have left that at my mums for the time being. Plus the little owlies on top are going to go on the wall rather than the wardrobe. Thanks to Sarah Wilson for the owl card on the left and I made the two owlies on the right..

Finally, here is our non standard light in the nursery... I just wasn't feeling the teddy bear/giraffe love so we plumped for this instead and James installed a dimmer switch so it can get nice and cozy in there!

Baby Buys so far

So, recently I have turned into a bit of an Ebayaholic... and this had resulted in some great buys. It has also meant a fair few trips to the post office to redeem my product with their little red 'you weren't in' vouchers! (Which on a totally different note, i'm convinced is a conspiracy...I've sat in the lounge before and still managed to get one of those through my door)

Anyhoo, these have been my purchases so far

Now, don't be getting excited... the only reason I got it in pink was because it was cheap! Let's say if a little boy Hills pops out he's either gonna have to be butch or I'm gonna have to get creative with the ol fabric :) It also came with a wooden rocking frame.

Now, this I think is pretty funky. Not only is it a sleeping bag but it is a travel sleeping bag.. meaning you can thread a 5 point harness through the middle.... meaning that you can get your baby out of car seat and put straight to bed already in it's jarmies....

Many thanks to this random lady who is modelling another of my buys... the Moby wrap in Indigo... I got to looking at these after Alice (Crumbs) started talking about baby carriers. They look really great and funnily enough I have to go and pick it up from the post office later (redeeming yet another red voucher!) (and yes... I was in the house!!! rrr)

Finally, from Ebay, I got this grobag swaddling fabric for 0-3 months...I still have mixed views about swaddling but again, for the price I thought it would probably be a go-er!

Anyhoo.... in total, these items should have RRP'd £114 and I paid the grand total of £59... I love Ebay :)

As a side note I also found in Boots the cutest little red gilet for 3-6 months...supposed to be £10, only £3. Barginous and just the cutest thing!
