Finally...a crib choice!

As the title may imply...we have finally decided on a crib for baby Ruback. We've been doing a lot of research and looking around but I think we've finally made our decision. It's a good thing we finally did because it will be delivered in 8-10 weeks and we don't have much time after that to get the nursery ready.

We've decided on....




The Peyt*n Lifestyle Crib by B*navita.

It was ranked highest on Consumer Reports and it is available in white which is what we have wanted.

Now to pick the bedding and decor...

Moving Road Trip

So I have been MIA from the blog recently, but for good reason....Dave and I are now officially Austin residents! It's been a long time coming and I'm glad it's finally here!

Dave started his new job in the middle of June but came back up for NY/CT the last week of the month to help with final pack-up and the drive down. His new company was completely flexible with him taking time off and made sure to give him plenty of time to pack, drive, and settle in. He went back to work yesterday and I am a full time stay at home...something! I have been helping out my parents with stuff around the house (Goodwill runs, organizing, stuff like that), closing out our house in CT, and helping my brother get ready for his wedding in a month. All this to say, I'm not bored!

On our drive from CT to TX we made a few pit stops. Here is our trip in pictures:

1st stop: To visit our 1st newphew! This is Dave's sister and husbands first child. We are so excited to have little boy cousins so close in age!


On to Nashville and south to Lynchberg, TN....the Jack Daniels Distillery. This was a really neat thing to see!


Our tour guide, and Mr. Jack


Here I am 24.5 weeks pregnant


Then on to Memphis & Graceland




Our last stop...to see Lauren, Sam, and baby Eli!


It was such a nice road trip and we get to take our time and not drive more than 8 hours in a day. We were able to enjoy the cities for dinners and really enjoy time with one another.
