Shopping Day...

We headed out to IKEA on Saturday to check out our options for some inexpensive furniture. We decided not to buy an expensive, convertible crib with matching nursery furniture. Instead we are going to get a simple, white crib and a couple of pieces of white furniture from IKEA. We'll dress it up with cute drawer pulls. Later on, after Lauren outgrows the crib, we'll get the twin bedframe that matches the IKEA pieces. We figure we have years yet to buy her a "real" furniture set that she can grow into.

I found some paint colors that go really well with the wallpaper border. Both the lighter version and deeper version of the colors look nice, but it depends what we can find for the bedding before we make a final decision on the colors.

I think we're heading out to Burlington Coat Factory this coming weekend....they have the Baby Depot section there and a pretty big selection of bedding.
