Baby Brain: The Search for the Perfect Moses Bassinet

I have a basinet that was handed down from family to family. We would have been the fourth baby to use it and well I am just not in love with it. Since we plan on having more than one baby I decided to get my own. I have always had my heart set on a wicker Moses style basinet and found the perfect one at Restoration Hardware Kids.



I ordered it three months ago but then got an email saying it was backordered. YES this is the exact same thing that happened with the rug for the nursery. It was backordered but would still get here in time for the baby but then it got backordered again weeks later. Now its estimated arrival would be August; three months AFTER the baby is due.

So I sadly canceled my order. And began searching for plan B. I don’t know how people shopped well before the internet. Because I was able to find almost the exact same Moses bassinet at Pottery Barn Kids. I was so excited that it wasn’t back ordered and that it arrived within a week. It looks perfect in our bedroom. And it was officially the last thing I was waiting for.
