I took a break so I could watch my husband do this:
Two hours later, we have this:
We are excited and proud!
Then, we worked together to put the changing table together.
**The walls will eventually be painted GREEN. We think it's best to go neutral since we won't know for a long time what we're getting. Even when we find out, things could fall through, so it's best to do the room in neutral colors.
We are tired, but happy. There is still a MOUNTAIN of paperwork to do, but we're getting there, question by question. Our criminal background checks have been sent, our fingerprinting appointment is on Thursday, and I have the rest of the week to finish my questions. William has 48 to answer, as well. :)
Sorry we look rough. We both have colds and this is at the end of long day.
Finally...something tangible to remind us that this is real.
(Can't wait to order the matching glider and ottoman!)
XOXOX,
