Weekend Updates & A New Glider!

Dan and I enjoyed a relaxing weekend. On Saturday we went to Babies R Us and looked at baby gear, picking out a stroller, car seat and a few other "bigger" items. Then we headed over to look at a glider I found on Craigslist. I've been watching Craigslist since early May and I almost never see really nice, upholstered gliders. I see a ton of the wood gliders with padded cushions tied on them, which I think are really ugly. So I was thrilled on Saturday to see a listing for a beautiful Monte glider that fits our color scheme perfectly. It was meant to be! I tried my best to negotiate down the price, but the sellers held firm at half off the retail price. We bought it. Even at half price, it was definitely a splurge, but I feel like we've saved so much on other things that it all evens out. I'll take a photo of it in our home soon (the baby room is kind of a mess right now because Dan scotchguarded the 6 cushions to our black chairs over the weekend and they're still in there). So for now, here's the photo from the Craigslist posting:
On Saturday night, we went to see the new movie Horrible Bosses, which was really funny, and then Sunday was mostly a work day. We hung out together at Dan's office. I brought my laptop to do my stuff and Dan got about 5 hours of his work done. We were really exciting! :)
