making a house a home - part 2
Before mum come down we got on with some decorating before they arrived
We bought a couple of things as i said in a post before like 2 lampshades n some hospital bag stuff.
We could only buy little things like that when ever they are on sale. So what mum did was really helpful to us it was one of the most expensive things we needed to buy n it was great she did n we really appreciate it :)
Last week James was on the bus n he said "check in the bank i just had a text through", which is never good at all so i did and oh my god lol well it was the opposite money had gone in from working tax credit and child tax credit.
It was a complete surprise...
We went into town n i bought the last baby things so bub doesnt need anything,
- Riley got some bedroom curtains, we couldnt get his blackout blind it was out of stock so we got the curtains instead.
- Tomorrow he is getting a bed guard so we can turn his cotbed into a bed cant wait, we was going to do it before but didnt have the money for a guard so couldnt change it.
- a lamp for his room and a fibre optic light from ebay which is on its way
We went to the British Heart Foundation charity shop and we got a 3 seater sofa, arm chair n foot stool when it was delievered it wouldnt fit in the door way so was taken back.
We went back to the store n told the manager he said we can exchange it for someting else.
We got a cheaper sofa suite (2 seater sofa n 2 arm chairs) n had to make up the price,
so we got:
- 2 pictures for the stairs,
- rileys lamp mentioned above
- a telphone
- a vcr
so that was delivered yesterday
We got grass seeds and we have grass now well a little bit, it has shot up with all the rain we've had. Its getting ready for rileys birthday.
A rug for the front room had money off it so bought it while it was cheap
Oh and the kettle because ours was leaking n wasnt working great
TBC...
