Baby Bedding

As Ryan and I prepare for our little one, we've been doing lots of shopping and making decisions on what we need. The one thing that we're having a hard time deciding on is the baby bedding. I realize that the bedding is mostly just for us. It doesn't really matter to the baby. I just want a cute nursery and one that doesn't look feminine. With boy bedding, a majority of it is sport and animal themed. Both of which, I've never been too crazy about. I've also toyed with the idea of my mom making us a bedding set, but I cannot find any fabric that I like. We've decided to just buy something that's cute. So, I need help. We've narrowed it down to 2 different bedding sets. They are completely opposite.


The first one is a classic boy bedding set. It looks classy and nice and I think it screams boy. Plus, it would look great in the espresso colored crib we have. It also wouldn't be too hard too coordinate with because it's pretty simple.

The next one is an animal, sports theme. Here's the deal. I thought I hated the animal or sport theme idea until I saw this bedding in Babies R Us. It's animals playing sports. Ryan loves it because it's two of his favorite things. And after seeing this set in person, the picture does not do it justice. We both really like this set too. And it would be really easy to coordinate with because animal and sports are everywhere!

So, we can't decide. We need input. There is only a $10 difference in price, so that's not a big deal. We just don't know what kind of bedding we want. What do you think?

As for the pregnancy, it's still going well. I'm now 29 weeks (seven months) and in the third (and last) trimester. I feel the baby move constantly and I love seeing my stomach do weird unnatural movements from him. It's such a fun time to have this little life inside of me. I'm starting to feel more pain in my lower back and sitting in a chair for long periods of time gets more and more uncomfortable. I almost died by the end of church yesterday. Good thing I have a job that requires me to be on my feet a lot. That may also have something to do with the fact that sitting isn't as comfortable for me. Besides that, everything is going well.


I'm amazed at how fast it has gone by. It's going to come up so fast. I feel like we have so much left to do before the baby comes. Hopefully we'll get everything ready in time.
