Robyn has, in the comments below, asked me what bedding I've bought for Annika and what we're considering for Baby V. And of course I'll share!

Annika's new bedding is from Pottery Barn Kids. It is the Emily Collection which you can see here. Her room is painted green with yellow vertical stripes every 12 inches or so and Kris didn't want to repaint her room so I had to find something cute that I liked that worked with those colors. The greens don't match perfectly but it is still pretty darn cute. The bedding is internet/catalog only so I had to order that but Krystle and I are going to go to the actual store to get some in-store-available accessories like a lamp, curtain rods and drapes. I'll take a picture of her new room when it is all put together. It's going to be so cute!

As for baby bedding, I have lots of choices! Here are the first three options I sent Kris: Option 1 and Option 2 and Option 3. Kris said they were all too muted and he wanted something with brighter colors. So, off I went in search again! I've found these additional options: Option 4 and Option 5 and Option 6 and Option 7 and Option 8. I'm not sure which one I like the most. I like option 2 (too muted?) and 5 (too much pinky/red/peachy?) the best, I think. Anyway, I'm leaning against the train one from PBKids. I'm just not into the whole boy=sports/trains/cars/etc. themes. Animals are okay as is the alphabet and some gender neutral patterns. That's my opinion anyway.

I don't think Kris will really agree to one unless he can see it in person though which is why I'd like to go shopping this weekend. We can hit Babies R Us, Kohl's, Target, Pottery Barn Kids, etc. as time permits and hopefully he can see a couple of these in person. I really would like to buy a bedding set in the next couple weeks so that we can start on the paint color selection and then get rolling on that too. Time keeps going by so quickly!

Thanks!! :)

I like #8 a lot! It makes me think nautical with boats and lighthouses and stuff like that. Obviously I like the jungle stuff too - #5 I think was the jungle parade.. I've never seen that one before!

Cute stuff!
