Xuan, Gage, my mom, and I went furniture shopping for the little man this past weekend. It's been about 5 months since we've moved into the new house and it's way past that time for Gage to get used to his new room. Currently, he's still in our room, either in his crib or in our bed. A queen size bed doesn't get any smaller, especially with Gage sleeping on our pillows or sideways on the bed. It doesn't get any better having to wake up with the little mans but right up against your face.
However, after having hit Pottery Barn for Kids, IKEA, Babies R Us, and Fingers Furniture, we realized children's furniture is either expensive or unbelievably cheap. There is hardly anything in between, unless you want to buy theme based furniture, which is cheaply built but highly priced (damn licensing fees), and doesn't really grow with the kiddo. Oh, we also found out that there's another word for particle board these days - engineered wood. Simply put, pressed wood is pressed wood, regardless of the method used to press it.
Anyway, stay tuned...
