The day started with a 5am trip to the bathroom where I happened to take:
Yes. You can believe your eyes. Only a few select people know that Chris and I purchased this beauty several weeks ago and counted the days until we could take it. We are those parents.
Silly? Maybe. Accurate? Most likely NOT. Fun? Absolutely.
So. Hubs got woken up this morning by me whispering (and attempting to break up his bullhorn-like snore) by saying "Honey! We are going to have a baby BOY!" He didn't wake up until 7am . That was a lot of whispering. Aaaaand a lot of silent dance partying out of absolute joy and excitement!!
The lovely folks at Intilligender claim that their (non patented) Gender Prediction Test is 90% accurate. They follow this claim by cautioning: "Although our GPT is highly accurate, we do not advise you to make any financial or emotional decisions based on the results of this test".
Riiiiight. Enter hours of baby bedding searching online, fabric swatch selection, order form completion (and thank heavens NOT submission), and spontaneous trip to MOG for baby accessories.
While in TJ Maxx Home Goods, I spotted this ADORABLE Wendy Bellissimo bedding set on the bottom shelf of a non-baby related display.
It looks a thousand times cuter in person and I plan on accenting with lime green (or pink if our Intelligender kit ends up failing us). The custom made bedding set I had created online had a chocolate brown zebra pattern, a brown polka dotted pattern, and a solid chocolate pattern. How in the world did I run into an almost identical set in TJ Maxx? Fate? I think so! How did the online set cost $395 and the Wendy Bellissimo set cost $70?! Whoa. Talk about shopping euphoria.
Now to locate this adorable coordinating snuggle blanket:
And perhaps this cute quilt... 
And approximately 1729 other Safari accessories.
What a fun, fun day!
Ha ha! Can I say "told you so" now? ;-) When can you ask a professional about the sex?
ReplyDeletelove the bed!
ReplyDeleteand congrats on the boy...or girl. ;-)
as for private school: i taught at a very prominent private school in atlanta for 2 years and after that i'm only sending my child to public. i don't want my child to grow up around children (AND PARENTS!!!) like that. there's a sense of entitlement there that irks me to my very core. as well as all this priviledge/charmed life and children who treat those who don't have much badly.
my kid is going to buford city schools b/c we're in district and i'm really happy about that.
