First Shopping Day for Baby A!

Today Andrew and I went out on our first Baby A shopping day! It was super fun but super overwhelming at the same time.  There are just SOOO many choices for EVERYTHING!

I first went out to buy a prop for our upcoming pregnancy reveal photo.  I am hoping to take the picture tomorrow and post it later this week! I don't want to give anything away so that's all I am going to say for now ;)

Later, Andrew and I went to the mall and I bought my first pair of maternity jeans from Destination Maternity.  They are J Brand dark skinny jeans and I absolutely love them! They have the side panel at the top instead of the roll up which is really nice.  It felt so great to try on jeans in my size and have them actually fit!  Although I'm not really showing yet, things are getting pretty snug in the waist.  I can't wait for my belly to finally pop! I hate this bloated looking tummy!  The jeans were a bit pricey, but I have plenty of room to grow in them and I plan on wearing them a good amount throughout my pregnancy.

We went to a few other stores in the mall for various errands, also checked out Pottery Barn Kids.  Didn't buy anything, but got some great ideas for the nursery.  Andrew wanted to check out the Apple store at the end (like he always does with every mall trip we go on!).  At that point we had been walking around for so long I just needed to sit down, so I waited for him on a bench outside the store.

Our last stop today was at Home Depot.  We picked out 6 different sample paint colors and are testing them out in the nursery tonight.  Hopefully we will have our color scheme decided soon so we can start deciding on other things, like bedding, furniture, etc.

Tomorrow we are going to Buy Buy Baby.  Now that store has overwhelmed me in the past while searching for things to buy for people that have already decided what they want.  Deciding what I want is going to be even more overwhelming! I've been to Babies R Us a few times and that felt a lot less overwhelming.   So we might end up going there too...and maybe Target as well.  Ahh so many choices!
