Baby Furniture Heist

Someone call the FBI! I need to report a heist of staggering proportions.

So we went shopping over the weekend for baby furniture and man, that is the greatest heist they have going on except for the Ocean’s Eleven caper! The prices of baby furniture are ridiculous! I was whining so much I feared Nikki was going to do one of those tearful “You don’t care about our baby!” outbursts that no guy wants to be the cause of.

So I had to preempt the situation by saying "Sweetie, it is not that I don’t want nice stuff for Nicholas’ room but I am thinking long term and trying to make sure that college is taken care of etc” She didn’t buy it though (my argument that is) and basically I still have to bite my tongue and get some of those overpriced furniture. We didn’t get them this weekend only because the stupid clerk had us there for hours only to say : “Ah sir, we don’t have any in stock!” I was elated for all of two seconds until Nikki calmly pointed out that there is a store not too far away…………………… Hate when she does that.

But back to my rant about furniture: changing table (you can change him on the bed), crib (he can sleep on our bed), chest of drawers (just how much stuff does he need). There, just saved us a whole bunch of money!

Now I am going to go figure out how to get into this baby furniture business!

He does need a crib. Can't have him too accustommed to sleeping with Mom and Dad. Changing table and drawers optional but they cute:)

Can't wait to hear about the first time you change him on YOUR BED. It promises to be a funny story! Get the changing table, you'll be so glad!
