Nesting

I can't say it's official yet, but the nesting instinct has started to make an appearance. After Simplicity recalled our bassinet I had a little break down because I suddenly felt so unprepared. (apparently there was a dangerous gap between the bedding and the walls of the bassinet...two babies suffocated...SO SCARY) On the night we found out about the recall, poor Talin watched me surf from website to website freaking out because I couldn't find anything I thought would be good enough for our son. (yeah...see, I know that SOUNDS nuts...but it felt normal when I was thinking it.) Luckily, Talin asked one of the ladies at his work what she had used with her kids and she suggested the arms reach co-sleeper bassinet. After a few days of research we found the most AWESOME deal on craigslist and we once again have a bassinet! YAY! The best part is that after he's done using the bassinet it converts to a play yard (YAYAYAYAY!) So...as we were setting things up today, I started to think about how many people in my life have had experience with preparing their homes for new babies...so here is my plea for help! =) Hook me up with the awesome things that we just HAVE to get or things we HAVE to do. What worked for you, and what didn't. Tell me, tell me, tell me ALLL! =)
