02/17/2008 - Glider

Back in October, Mandy's dad said that he wanted to buy the baby a gift and asked us what he could get.

Mandy remembered a story that her dad used to tell about the first time that his little girl was visiting her paternal grandparent's house and wouldn't go to sleep. Mandy's dad knew immediately that his little girl was desperately needing a rocker so that her mom could rock her to sleep, but the only problem was that Mandy's grandparents didn't have one. Well, when Mandy's paternal grandfather found out that his granddaughter didn't have what she wanted, he got up in the middle of the night, woke up the shop owner of the local furniture store and went down to purchase a rocker! It was such a simpler time then!

So, Mandy thought that a glider would be a very appropriate gift from her dad :) As the nursery started coming together, we decided that a yellow glider would be a nice compliment to all of the pink and green. We ordered this glider about 3 weeks ago and got it this week. We're very happy with how the color and fabric pattern turned out and also very excited that the glider is super comfortable to sit in!

Hey, guys! Jess shared your blog with me - everything looks great and I'm sure you both are excitedly awaiting the arrival of Anna Claire! I love, Love, LOVE the bedding you picked out, Mandy! Too cute with so much fun & bright color. Smart thinking on buying it before you knew - PB discontinued a little girl's set that I love, as well; I, too, should have purchased but didn't since we have no clue when we'll enter into the baby realm. Hope to see you guys soon!
