I will be moving & a sidenote PIP

My parents decided to enclose their very sizable garage and turn it into a studio apartment for me and Vivienne. They had my uncle come out today to begin the process. I am excited b/c I will be savings tons on rent, and will not be in a two bedroom apartment alone ( she isnt due untill late july, my lease is up in april). We of course agreed to me contributing a small monthly amount for rent. I was hesitant at first because I felt like I should provide V with our own home and her own room. But now, I am thrilled to be close to family, and able to save and do even more with out money worries. Oh and on a sidenote I chose her bedding today and ordered it! I am feeling better every day about doing this without BD.

    Well my bedding is very close to that, minus the lime green and we both will have dark furniture. I figured since we are going to have an open floor plan I would try to find something that would go together well.

    Well, great pick!  Enjoy getting your new space ready for your little one.  I love the name you've picked.

    I'm so glad you are able to be near your family when your LO comes.  I felt much like you did, that I should be giving B his own home, own room, etc. but I think the support and skipping on the money stresses outweigh those concerns.  The baby would've slept in the same room with you for several months anyway.  I'm planning on using the time with my family to get my master's and save up to make that home for B.  I'm sure V will love being near her grandparents when she's so small anyway.

    P.S. The bedding is adorable!
