We bought a crib!!!

I've always loved looking through the newest Potterybarn Kids catalog each season. Each time picking the beautiful, white sleigh bed type crib as my favorite. For the past month or so I've been looking at local stores, websites, Craigslist, garage sales, etc to see if I could find a crib. My mom, mother-in-law, sister-in-law Emily and others were also on the lookout for me! (THANKS!)

Well, I found EXACTLY what I wanted on Craigslist. I was so excited! I asked if the woman could send me pictures and when I she sent me this picture I was SOLD!

She bought the cribs for her twins in 2007 from a local baby boutique and no longer has a need for both. Denny and I went to her house (adorable home in Bexley) to make sure they were in good condition and minutes later they were loaded in the back of my CRV! :) I have to give a big thanks to Denny for this because as he was loading them into my car it was literally raining cats and dogs. The woman offered to let us come back another day to get them because their entire driveway was flooded and the rain was not slowing down. But Denny knew how much I wanted the crib so he kindly loaded it in the rain!

Here is a picture of the crib from the website! I can't wait to setup the nursery!

That is exactly the crib of your dreams! I am certainly glad this is not twins in our future but those 2 are hilarious! Now we are looking for a dresser/changing table in that same pottery barn look. love, Mimi

cool! Does the front rail drop down with a latch mechanism of some sort....we saw one like this and it is good for petite mommas like yourself! BTW...that is WAY nice...compared to the used stuff I see out there, craigslist is the best for stuff like that i think!!
