Sleep is good

39 weeks!

The past few weeks we've gone out looking at recliners to serve as a chair for me to hold/rock Nathan and to breastfeed him. Those gliders are just so expensive and to be honest, I'm not big on their look. Plus my OB had suggested a recliner to help me sleep as well since laying down is too uncomfortable.

Anyway, we'd found a recliner about a week ago that was pretty cheap, around $350, but I just couldn't bring myself to want to really buy it. Yesterday, at the suggestion of my mother-in-law, we decided to go to our local La-z-Boy furniture store. So I sat in nearly all the chairs they had within our price range and none worked. I finally told my husband that I was getting uncomfortable and couldn't keep testing chairs anymore. Then as we were getting ready to leave, I saw this nice leather chair that looked real cushy so I sat in it and wow, it was wonderful! It was leather and way out of our price range (think it was $1500 or so) but I just had to sit in it for a few minutes because it was sooo comfortable.

Turns out we could get it in fabric AND in the same color to match the crib! So we bought it (for half the price of the leather one) and I am happy to say that I slept in it last night and slept for SIX HOURS! Six hours! YAY! I am so excited! My husband was too and he feels better knowing that I can sleep in it and that the money was well spent ;)

Today we're off to buy a Dyson vacuum. Rave reviews all around for this thing, I hope it's worth it!

Everything else is good. Nathan is happy as a clam and refuses to come out ;)

  1. I have a glider and the only thing I don't like about it is that it is not safe to fall asleep rocking the baby!!

    Those Dyson's kick ass!
