Chuck recently found out he has allergies to a few things and one of those things are dust mites. So I thought this was a perfect opportunity to get a new bed! We have been talking about getting a king size bed one day (I am a bed hog) and since Chuck wanted to get some new allergy stuff for the bed, it made sense to put it on a new bed instead of an old one….at least I thought so!
On a side note, I am a huge enabler if you didn't already know that about me! A queen was plenty big, but I wanted a HUGE one! And when we were picking out our most recent tv I told Chuck the one he picked wasn't quite big enough and we needed the next size up! HEHE. I am so tricksy! Not really…I am just an enabler! I won't deny it!
We got another Sleep Number bed. We just loved our other one and there wasn't much question what we were going to get this time. Of course we needed to have a new head board with the new bed since it was bigger. So we picked out one we liked and brought home 3. Yes three! The first two were damaged so we brought them back. Finally number 3 was the winner. We got the whole bed together (which came in about 11 boxes with all the parts and the allergy stuff we got for it) and after we attached the head board to it, it wasn't very stable because the headboard was really heavy. So we ended up getting the rest of the bed. Here is a picture of it. And this is a queen size in this picture.
I wasn't big on foot boards when we were looking at them in the store, but now that I have it, I am really happy with the way it looks. It also looks nice with the dresser we already had and is much more cherry in person. It has a leather backrest on it and I got pretty striped sheets for it! I really like it. I will show a picture of the bed in our room once the new pillows come in. They haven't been shipped yet…we might be making a phone call to them tomorrow considering we bought the bed on the 4th! So stay tuned for that picture!
