So here is what we ended up going with:
Pali Imperia Crib - I didn't like most of the cribs that had a higher back and a lower front, or a lot of extra fanciness going on. The extra fanciness takes up a lot of extra space when you are filling a 7x9 room. We were deciding between the BabyLetto Mercer, which has storage drawers, and this crib. We ultimately picked this one because it had way less flex in the rails, and we are hoping the material will hold up to teething a bit better than the Mercer, but I've already pinned some teething guards.
Haverty's Patrice Glider - I checked out Babies R Us and Great Beginnings for gliders, but generally felt underwhelmed. We bought our couch from Haverty's and I was really pleased with their selection of reasonably priced rocker/glider recliners. Plus their sales staff tends to be really nice and not pushy and their delivery lets you stalk the truck all the way to their house and they have a good return policy. This was the narrowest glider we could find that still looks like a proper armchair and will hopefully work in our living room later.

Kallax Changing Table - we bought an Ikea Kallax 4x2, added three sets of Captiva Legs (we = husband), and will be putting a changing pad and other changing supplies on top.
Dresser - We still have to sand and paint the dresser, or at least clean it up. The coloring might actually work with the "mouse" colored glider, so I'm not 100% set on painting it anymore. We'll probably have to wait until we get the glider anyway, so then we can make a decision.
Hopefully I can get started on our mobile and some other projects soon, but right now most of my weekends have been taken up with errands and cooking all of the produce we are getting from our CSA and garden plot!
