Shopping for Baby #2

As promised – here is the list of everything we are getting for little Baby #2 who is due to arrive quite soon! Since this is our second baby, we don’t actually need that much new stuff. We’ll be reusing almost everything from Alec. We didn’t know if we were having a boy or a [...]

Safari Details for the Nursery

I know it’s a bit ridiculous to daydream about details when the nursery still looks like a storage room/disaster zone, but I can’t help it. Today I browsed fabrics for lampshades, cushions, bedding and curtains etc. I’m also trying to make a few small purchase decisions that could really set the tone since it’s such [...]

Bassinets, Cradles & Day Cribs for Newborns

We have finally got the new nursery underway, but for the first few weeks and months with our second baby, we don’t actually expect to use that room a ton. I want it ready before the delivery, because I assume things will be crazy after that, but in the beginning, our new baby will stay [...]

Nursery Progress – Our Crib Choice

In a spontaneous fit of decision-making on-the-go, we decided yesterday that the new baby’s nursery will be white, grey and yellow and we even bought a crib and a dresser! It is such a weight off my shoulders that the ball is really rolling on this project and that the main items can already be [...]

On the Crib Shortlist: IKEA Sundvik

A late addition to the crib shortlist: IKEA’s Sundvik crib. On Thursday, while visiting my parents at their new country house, I left Alec with his Grandma (and a bag of leftover breakfast sandwiches to feed the chickens), and headed into town with my Dad to pick up some things at IKEA.
