Oh How Our Lives Are Changing...

Obviously our lives are going to turned upside down when Cruz arrives....and it seems as though it's already started. As we were putting together the baby items we've received, we wanted to start getting them into place and it seems that these items and this little guy are going to take over every space of our home.

Instead of spending money on a bassinet, we decided to just use our Pack N Play as our in-room bassinet. We had to shift our dresser down a bit to make it fit near my side of the bed, but we've created a perfect little nook for lil Mango to sleep in his first few months at home.

After putting the swing together last week, I didn't want to squeeze it into the nursery (along w/ the pompesan chair, stroller & large pieces of furniture) so it found it's permanent place in the living room where we anticipate it being housed for the next year or so.

I have to say that I never really thought about having to incorporate these baby staples into our every day decor, but it's the exceptions you make when you are expecting the most important thing you've ever done to enter your lives....and somehow I envision this being a small start to look of our home changing forever.
