A Girl Can Dream, Can't She?

So yesterday I shared bedding I love. Today I showed them to my husband, he loved the price. Especially the $50 9 piece frog set I love if Spawnie is a boy.

But I wasn't totally IN LOVE with any girl sets. They were all OK, and cute, but nothing was IT... You know, popping out the moment it's spotted knowing it's THE ONE... Like a wedding dress. Yes, I know I sound slightly insane for comparing my child's nursery decor to my wedding dress. And maybe I am... Insane that is. If you don't think so now, you will once you see the bedding I've decided is PERFECT for a daughter... One I would DIE to have if Spawnie is a girl. One my husband would actually KILL me for buying if she is (so yes, are we clear? I would be dead). Just look at this:**dies**

One of my sinful wonderful Twitter friends was so kind to send me a link to a simple Myspace page... A page that was so glorious I actually signed into my ancient Myspace account just to see more pictures... And fall more in love. I was taking suggestions from friends and simultaneously grateful and depressed that she introduced me to this work at home designer.

My eyes watered. I'd never seen any little girl bedding so beautiful in all of my years (yes years) of searching. Hunting nursery designs have been a secret hobby of mine since before I was even thinking about children!
The bows, the ruffles, the mix match designs! It's PERFECT!

I wanted to cry because I knew it was going to be expensive... Something out of my reach. I wanted to cry because I knew I'd be disappointed once I realized I couldn't afford it, and that any bedding I chose after setting my eyes on this would be settling. I wanted to cry because I couldn't believe I was seriously freaking out about baby bedding right now... Ok I could.I may be one of the biggest girlie girls you'll ever meet, and these designs were the epitome of girlie. By the way, all of these are by Love Bug Baby Bedding.

I know there are so many more important things I will buy for Spawnie, and some would argue it's selfish of me to look at such glamorous bedding that will get peed, pooped and barfed on... But I would be lying if I said I cared. The ONE thing I REALLY want to splurge on is bedroom decor. I'm not too proud to buy a used high chair, dresser, clothes, books, toys, or whatever else we may need... Heck, I'd buy a used set like this in a SECOND if I could find one. I'm eyeballing my prized possessions wondering how much I could salvage for them. Selling Snoop even popped into my mind... But only for a second (don't tell him I said that)! Ready for my excuse to splurge? Well, I got a crib for free, so that saved like $400! I could use that $400 to pay for (part of) this! Look at all the adorable matching stuff!! **dies**

No no, that free crib argument is not convincing enough, my husband won't go for that. I must work hard to think of a master plan so I won't die... And so my husband won't kill me. But until then. I'll keep dreaming, and hope that most of you are right in that Spawnie is a boy so I can buy the $50 frog set I LOVE for a little boy, and pack my dreams of a pink princess room away until I get a promotion or two.

**PS: (Added an hour later) I JUST found these on Ebay by babyloom! Similar and HALF the price!! Hubby still laughed at me, but we're getting closer!**
