***GypsyEsq***...Mod Pea Pod

Thanks so much for mentioning the Mod Pea Pod website.  It has so many options!  I just love the fabrics.  Which did you pick?

Ooh I'm glad you like it.  We went with Sweet Potato Giraffe.  We didn't find out the sex of the baby so we needed something gender neutral and I really liked the orange.  DH and I also really liked the way she mixed fabrics that we wouldn't have put together on our own. 

Tracy, the owner, was super great to work with.  She'll customize anything anyway you want it.  So, for instance, if you just want a crib skirt and a valance or a crib skirt and a quilt you can do it.  FYI, the quilt that comes in the set is a little on the small side.  Closer to a car seat blanket than a true quilt and it's not fluffy so it's a great little blanket. 

Congrats on your paper pregnancy!  I hope you find something you like.  I bookmarked a lot of choices on the site before we finally made a decision.

I really like the the giraffe design!  I like orange, too, but we are buying black furniture and DH thinks the orange and black would look too Halloween-ish.  I have bought a few light green/lime storage containers for the room, so maybe we'll go with something with green.  It's hard when you don't know if the baby will be a boy or girl!  (I know we could wait until after we know, but I'm not sure if I can wait that long!)

Thanks for the congratulations.  We're very excited.  Just hope it all happens soon.  They told us it could take a few months up to 2 years.  We've already been ttc for 3 years, so I'm really hoping it's not another 2 years.

Congratulations to you , too!
