So... Stephen is pretty great. He may not let me sit on him because apparently my belly is not a pillow, it's a bowling ball (his words not mine), but he did put the crib together while I was at work today.

Yay! It's rickety and I'm not entirely convinced it's safe, but it's in one piece!

I have provided yet another camera phone pic for your viewing pleasure. I guess this means we just need a couple of accessories (a crib bumper, bed skirt, and a twilight turtle) and we're well on our way to uber cuteness. Huzzah.




Edit/Note: We are planning to make another go at sturdying the crib and probably lowering the mattress- we, of course, would not use it unless we thought it was really safe. And, we are aware that there is a level of user error and McGuivery going on here as we had to take our best guess at what we needed, and that may not have been entirely correct.

If you aren't sure it's safe, should you be using it? Or is it rickety purely because the fixings need to be tighter? o_O I don't know. Just wondering.

Of course I wouldn't put an infant in it the way it is. We are going to have a further go of tightening things and maybe switching out some screws. I'm sure it will be fine.

Yay for Stephen! He is well on his way to being a good father. It's so nice when they take the initiative and surprise you =) The room is looking great, can't wait to see it in person. What the heck is a twilight turtle?

This is a Twilight Turtle, which is located here on our Registry. :)

(Don't mind the uberly expensive diaper bags and what have you. I haven't been down there to actually register in person- that trip hasn't happened yet. Though I have been there and love just about that everything in the store... bad sign I'm sure. As opposed to Target where there are very few things I am interested in.)
