Getting Ready for Baby

So we bought our crib, crib mattress and glider on the Wal-Mart website and opted for the Site-to-Store shipping method so that we wouldn't have to pay pesky shipping fees. We got the glider on Tuesday and the crib and mattress yesterday and by the end of tonight we had both put together. I say "we", but really Ben was the one who put about 95% of it together. We were pleasantly surprised at all the things we bought, though none of the colors go together. Oops. We've got walnut, cherry, and black wood all in one room, but whatever. We have yet to get our sheets and crib skirt and something to put on the wall over the crib, but it feels like our office is turning into more of a nursery. 7.5 weeks left!

Who says you can't have different types of wood in one room? Maybe you're starting a new fad!

That's excited Amanda! I love the new nursery.

Nice job on the room. That's how it should be-Ben putting everything together. Unfortunely, in my case, I'm the handy one so I put everything together/fix things. I guess that means we should get our baby stuff early so I'm not 9 mo. pregnant putting it all together ;)
