No way that just happened

I saw an print-ad for these and quickly rolled my eyes. There are plenty of other ways to spend money as parents-to-be. Still, this commercial is awesome.

Nursery Update

The nursery is coming along. We got some of the furniture delivered (by me) from BrUs a couple of weeks back. Here is our dresser:

The clothes in front of the dresser are from Jamie's coworker. She gave us a kid-ton of second-hand little boy clothes which is going to help out a lot. Our crib still looks like a cardboard box. I'm not assembling it until I get the painting done. Hoping to get the room primed this weekend. Here are the 3, very different colors we are looking at:


We've pretty much decided on the green because it seems fun.

Daycare Idol

Jamie and I have seen 3 different day cares now and feel qualified enough to make snap judgements. The following DayCare could be a perfectly fine and affordable establishment but it never got the chance.

I set up a visit the day after Memorial Day. He said it would be no problem, just call on my way over. So I called on my way over and as I was driving by and as I pulled into the the run-down vacant lot across the street. All I got on each call was the "We're-away-for-Memorial-Day" message.

I was waiting for Jamie to arrive but had already decided this wasn't for Baby-Kelly. I appreciate the $10 they spent on the sign for the day-care and the playground forged from raided dumpsters but it was not for us.



No idea how many words "daycare" is btw. I took the shotgun approach hoping one of them was used correctly.
