Score!

Trey and I have been on the hunt for new baby furniture for our newest bundle.  Both Riley and Hadley have cribs which convert all the way to full size beds. So our plan was to do the same for baby #3.   A couple of months ago we got Riley a full size mattress and box spring because she had outgrown her toddler size bed.  I have been trying to order the pieces to convert Riley's crib into the full size bed but it hasn't been available to order.  Babies "R" Us keeps telling me they are having issues with the manufacturer.  So here we are about a month away from having baby girl #3 and Riley still doesn't have her bed frame and we still haven't gotten new furniture for the new baby.  Trey jumped on craigslist to see if there might be something good available on there to buy.  He came across an nice full size bed and armoire for sale.  It looked like it was in good shape and I loved the fact it was a sleigh bed.  New furniture here in Hawaii is ridiculously expensive and isn't all that attractive.  Most of the furniture has that island/vacation feel to it, if you know what I mean.  That's not the look I'm going for!  Trey called on the furniture he found in hopes that it was still for sale.  Luckily nobody had swooped in on the bedroom set and we were able to look at it and decided it would definitely work for Riley.  It's made by Ethan Allen and I know they make nice furniture.  And we couldn't beat the price.  Plus, now we are giving Riley's baby furniture to our  newest baby girl.  We killed two birds with one stone!  Of course I'm still trying to order the pieces I need to convert the crib into a full size bed so we will be prepared when the time comes!  I'm totally satisfied with our decision to buy Riley used furniture.  It's in pretty good condition and she loves her new bed!  It was funny because the guy we bought the furniture from just moved to the island, he's military.  After talking to him for a bit we found out he's in the Navy and transferring to Trey's command.  What a small world!  So we know where to hunt him down if something goes terribly wrong with the furniture!!
