pottery barn kids

I've officially become a pottery barn kids website stalker!
Mike and I have been looking at bedding forever. It's really hard to find something that's neutral that isn't cutsy-tutsy baby giraffes. Anyway, we really love quilts, in fact, the comfortor on our bed is a quilt. We finally found some bedding at PBK that we love, that is very much like a quilt!
However, it's crazy expensive, because, well, it's pottery barn. It looks like they tend to have really good clearance sales though, so I think we'll wait and see if anything goes on sale.
I've also been checking ebay...
anyone have any experience with pottery barn in this department?

strollers, bedding, and sickness

sad to report that the pukies are back in full force... so frustrating.. i had about 3 weeks where i was only getting sick once a week... and the last two days now i've gotten sick, and i've been feeling queasy all over again.... so i'm thinking it's back.... so frustrating.... i just want to feel decent.... ya know??

we are going to mike's parents this weekend. we haven't been up there in quite a while, so that will be nice. it's always nice to go up and enjoy small town life. :) my mother in law called this morning to find out if we would be willing to play piano and bass at church... such is small town world! :)

we've been looking and looking at bedding. trying to find one we love. i think maybe we've finally found it... i love the simplicity of this one. the price isn't terrible, and i like that we could accent with the chocolate brown color, and then if we wanted add pink or blue....
We've also been looking at strollers.... who knew it could be so difficult...
we've been leaning towards a jogger lately, purely for camping and going for walks. the bigger wheels are just so much nicer and smoother to push.. we found one that we like pretty well. http://www.dreamerdesign.net/parkave.cfm
we've also been leaning towards the chicco cortina.. i LOVE the adjustable handle mostly... i'm short and most strollers are uncomfortable for me to push....the storage space is nice as well. http://www.chiccousa.com/product.php?productid=272&cat=5&page=1 i'm not in love with the small wheels though.... it just seems like it would be so bumpy....
but just in the past couple of days, we've been wondering about for-going a big stroller. we want to get a sling to use when the baby is young. since i'm due in january, i HIGHLY doubt there will be lots of walks happening... so we're wondering about just doing a sling and then perhaps a umbrella stroller, like the maclaren later.... who knows... so many decisions to process...
anyone have any brillant thoughts on this one?!?!
