Baby furniture!

The furniture we picked out at Nebraska Furniture Mart was delivered and set up today. I came home over lunch to furniture that was more beautiful than I remembered! I had thought it was much lighter and more of an oak color, but it's a rich darker brown....it's just perfect for the room! As I mentioned in my previous post it was the 4th set we looked at--I had fallen in love with this other set but it was super expensive. While I was downstairs keeping Sydney entertained while Joe perused back through the cribs he found this one and told me to check it out. I was hoping to match what ever furniture we got to a bookshelf I had had in my room growing up that was made by my Grandpa Nelson, that I wanted to use in the baby's room. In my mind (while at the store) I thought it was much darker so I kept going towards the dark cribs, but Joe kept telling me it was lighter and more red....well Someone Up Above must have been talking to me through Joe because the furniture and the bookshelf are almost a perfect match! :) Now I'm hoping for a snow day this week so I can get things washed and set up!

Here's the dresser/changer:

The "new baby's bed" and the very proud big sister :)
