Baby Stover has furniture!

Well, we don't have it yet, but his furniture is on order. After months of trying to figure out what we wanted, we ordered it on Saturday. We looked at so many places - baby boutiques, Pottery Barn Kids, Land of Nod, and various other places. We ended up ordering from Kittles, a large furniture store in Indianapolis. We decided to go with this for several reasons. Mainly because of the fact it is made in the U.S., unlike most of the others we looked at, which are made in China. I have a real problem with purchasing things made in China because of all of the press. I am also really funny about the toys I will allow him to play with. Tim says the poor baby is not going to have any toys because I am so picky! Anyway, the furniture is made by Stanley, which is an American company that has been around forever. We went with a black crib that will convert to a toddler bed, a daybed, and to a full size bed. We also ordered the double dresser with a detachable changer, and a door chest. It is all very nice.




We had a very exciting Saturday. It was all about baby all day long. My parents went with us and we feel like we accomplished a lot. My parents wanted to purchase all of his nursery decor, so they ordered all of his bedding, etc. We have had it picked out for awhile, but yesterday we were able to see fabric swatches, etc. The bedding was ordered at a baby boutique in Carmel, IN and they were SO very helpful. I am so excited about the nursery. I think it is going to be awesome and I think baby will enjoy it too!

We love the baby furniture & had a wonderful time shopping with Mommy & Daddy for it.
Baby Boy is such a blessed baby to have parents like Brooke & Tim.
They are putting so much love into all the planning for the arrival of Baby Boy.
We are looking forward to seeing the nursery & especially the baby in it.
Love & Prayers

On Saturday "Auntie Ame" bought the first presents for Baby BOY Stover! I was so excited! I've planned for a couple other things, and need to check out your registries again....

Which Carmel store did you order the bedding from?

"Auntie Ame" the bedding was purchased at Decor for Kids. I think we bought everything they offer in the design the room will be decorated in.
