The Fun has Arrived!!!!

Since my amazing baby shower in Utah, I have been totally inspired to get moving on getting together our important baby items. Using the gift cards we received, we went on a shopping spree! Well, not really...but we did go get the crib, the crib mattress, the carseat, the stroller, the diaper bag, and a boppy pillow! My sisters and my mom had purchased all our nursery items and had them shipped to Gilbert, so I was very antsy just waiting for them to arrive. They finally came!!! Here you go...

Here is the crib with the bedding set...it's SO cute and we are so in love. Also, you can kind of see the rug - which turned out to be even SO much cuter than I could have imagined. It's so fluffy and awesome. Thank you to my wonderful sisters and mom! (PS that shelf full of stuff will be moving from the room, don't worry!)

And here is the carseat and stroller that we got (also note the diaper bag that matches everything). We drove all over the Phoenix valley to find the last one available. I've been wanting it since I saw it, and I refused to give up! Of course my easy going husband just drove from one end of the valley to the other and called every Target in existence to find the one remaining carseat I wanted.

I'll keep updating as we continue to get the room set up. I also got a cute diaper stacker, which you can kind of see in the background, but I'll highlight it when we get the changing table all done (right now it's missing the actually changing pad and cover).

Thanks again to everyone who came to the shower and brought yourselves and such awesome gifts. I was able to get almost everything home on the plane, and you should be watching for updates of where and when your gifts are being used!

Yeah so worth it! And I bet it seems like Christmas all over again. I love the colors and thank heavens that Noah is SOOOOOO patient. That will come in handy as a parent. Good job and I can't wait to see it in person.I love the monkey in the crib and hope that baby Rajko will love the monkey and much as his daddy!

How much fun for you!! What a lucky little guy. You two will be wonderful parents! How organized you are too!!! Are you sure you are related to me? Looks great.

LOVE IT! LOVE IT! LOVE IT!!! It all looks so cute and guess what? The baby will never care if there is a book shelf in his room. Quit worrying about silly things and just worry about getting ready for Rajko and yourself! I think Noah is ready. That room looks so cute!!! I can't wait!

Allen, don't worry...he'll sleep in our room (but not our bed) for a little while, when we'll apparently abandon him...

Jody, I love that we have the same stroller/car seat and diaper bag. They do match pretty well :)

Anissa, don't worry...I'm sure there are plenty of things left. But even if all I received were diapers and wipes, that would be AMAZING and extremely helpful...

What a darling baby room. I have had three children and have never even had a nursery! I've got to get a place of my own someday. I totally love the decor and it was so fun to have you here for the shower to see all the other fun stuff you got. I can't believe the next time I see you, you will be a mom!!!!!!
