A bassinet means it's real...

The nursery is totally not ready- there is still trim to finish and paint, but progress IS happening. As of yesterday I at least have a place for the kid to sleep for the first few weeks.

We went up to Bangor to check out this baby/maternity resale shop called The Growing Place. We were really pleasantly surprised- everything was clean and in good shape. We didn't have anything specific in mind, but we found this Kolcraft bassinet that was in great shape and the style/color made us happy. Sold! Also picked up two pairs of jammies that were too cute, including this pair with a football on the bum.

I'll definitely go back once the baby is born- its a great source for sweaters and snowsuits and those cute outfits that don't get worn everyday, but you just HAVE to have. :)
