Baby's Room

So in preparing for a baby to be here soon, we finally got the second bedroom organized.  We took out the guest bed and rearranged everything so it looks just how I want it to.  My parents helped a lot with this.  They also brought out their really awesome vacuum and they vacuumed everything!  It is so nice having everything feel clean.  We also bought any missing baby items that were needed and washed everything.  All the clothes, blankets, sheets, etc.  It all got washed.  I am currently washing the cloth diapers.  Almost everything is done, which is a nice feeling.  I just have few more items to purchase and a few more things to do (pack hospital bag, get car seat inspected, put up co-sleeper) and everything will really be done.  The cats seem to think that we set up this room for them, surprise, surprise.  They keep wanting to lay in the crib, which I cannot always avoid, but it has a massive blanket over the crib so their hair won't get on the nice clean sheets. 
But here are a few pictures of the room.

Kitties taking over

The other night we couldn't find MJ, we looked in all of her usual sleep spots and she wasn't in them.  Finally we looked in the guest bedroom, where the cats generally don't go and we found her.

Yep, she was sleeping in the car seat, on top of the baby sling.  She hasn't slept there since we found her and took pictures, maybe she got embarrassed.

Crib

So we got our crib at the beginning of this week, and put it together on Friday night.  It ended up being a different one that I had originally planned to get because Target was out of that one and didn't know when they would get it in, so they canceled my order.  A little annoying but now that we have this crib and it is put together and I really love it, so it all worked out.  I found this crib on Amazon and the great thing about Amazon is that many of their items have free shipping.  So I think this crib ended up being cheaper than the other one.  And after reading many, many reviews this one reviewed the best among the cribs I was looking at. 
I was having such a hard time deciding on what crib to buy because I would find one that had good reviews overall but reading the low reviews would turn me off.  But this crib did not have the low review that turned me off, the low reviews consisted of people saying is scratched easily.  It seems like every crib I looked at this was a common complaint to I easily stopped caring about that aspect, because it is for a kid, it will get scratched to matter what.
