Crazy, crazy weekend.

Wow, what a weekend! We've been on the go pretty much all weekend. Friday night DH, Alina and I all went out to dinner at a local restaraunt, The Rib Company. Pretty good food...I forgot how huge beef ribs are though. Holy hell! Anyway, we got up early Saturday morning and headed out to Palm Springs to go to Toys-R-Us and get the stuff we needed. After spending half the day in L&D on Friday I was fully determined to get all of the stuff done this weekend come hell or high water. So anyway we get up to Toys-R-Us (it was DH, Alina, my MIL and me) and start shopping. We find Alina's toddler bed almost immediatly, and lucky us....it was only $79 in store, and it had an $8 off coupon with it as well! So we went to go find the carseat we wanted, (the Graco Safe Seat) and they didn't have the stage 1 version, only 2. So we tried for the bassinet, no luck there either. Couldn't find the toddler bedding set we wanted, either. Blah. Ended up getting a couple more things for Alina though. (Including a Dora the Explorer couch and a pillow.) Then went to Target and found out they had the carseat, just not in that store at the moment. Blah. Didn't have a bassinet either. Double blah. SO we drove to the other Target in town and picked up the carseat, some new shoes for Alina and a couple other things. It was getting late by this point so we came home. Got her new bed set up and found out we didn't have the complete bedding set. Blech.

Sunday my MIL left, so we said good bye to her. :( It was nice having her here, but its also been nice having our house to ourselves again. We went to a yard sale near by and they were selling a queen size pillowtop mattress, boxspring, frame and head/food boards for $150, so we bought that and some Disney movies we didn't own. Alina's friend Gabbi turned 1 on Saturday so we went to her birthday party on Sunday, that was fun. Alina got all hyped up on cake and ice cream, but she hadn't had a nap all day so she crashed. Got home, relaxed and enjoyed some peace and quiet.

Today we got up, got ready and went to head off to Ontario to go to the Babies-R-Us out there. Our friend Robert was going to come with us, but was sick so he stayed back. Got onto the I-10 and traffic was backed up like nothing else. Took us 3.5 hours to get to Ontario (Its normally an hour and a half drive.) Anyway, we got there and went shopping. Got the Bassinet I wanted so bad (Its by First Years, called the Carry Me Near 5-in-1 sleep system.) Also got Alina a Princess toddler bed set, got her a new outfit, got the movie Cinderella and also got baby boy 2 new outfits.

After we got home we put stuff together, so now it looks like we're actually about ready to have him. Yipes! I can't believe how close its getting!
