Nursery progress and purchases!

Our crib and glider were delivered yesterday, and we received our crib mattress over the weekend. We were very excited to put them together last night!

We purchased a Delta Venetian Lifetime Non-Drop Side Crib from Babies R Us and a Sealy Baby Ultra Rest mattress:


The mattress fits well in this crib. There is a gap of 1 small finger width between the crib and the mattress (my fingers are pretty small). The sheet in the picture is the turtle crib sheet from Pottery Barn Kids.

Our glider is the Bergamo Glider and Ottoman Combo in Medium Oak & Oatmeal, also from Babies R Us. We wanted a glider that was on the smaller side that wouldn't look ridiculous in our living room years from now. We both can comfortably sit and rock in this one:


We also recently received our first gift! My college roommate can't make it to my baby shower, and she sent us the Fisher Price Ocean Wonders Deep Blue Sea bouncer! It's currently sitting on our kitchen table because we like to look at it.
Another recent purchase was our stroller. After reading the reviews and playing with it in a store, we chose the Baby Jogger City Mini. Apparently it's the #1 selling stroller in the US right now because it's often sold out online (nowhere to purchase it in a store in Hampton Roads). We ordered the stone color and are looking forward to using it. The fold is indescribably easy, and that's coming from someone 5 feet tall with no muscles. I also like that it reclines nearly flat and can be used from birth. We'll start off with a Snap & Go for our carseat, but I also envision walks with the baby in the City Mini.
