The Furniture is Here!!!

The baby furniture arrived on Friday morning at 5:20 a.m. I think that is the earliest delivery on record...they let us know the day before it would be that early, so we weren't surprised by the phone call at 5:15 telling us they were outside with the truck!



Here are the boxes:





Chris was very surprised that I didn't try to drag any of the boxes through the house during the day. The lightest box was 35 lbs. While dinner was cooking, Chris brought the boxes through the house. We first set up the crib...









It wasn't that hard, but two people were definitely needed.









And, the dressers were already assembled...life is good! The drawers are somewhat full of the necessary items. I ordered new shades for the nursery too, they should be here within two weeks.











Yesterday, we bought a swing and a monitor. We now have almost everything, except a place to sit when we are in the nursery.








And, of course, the dogs were involved in most of the steps...except when the vacuum was out. They don't like the vacuum and I had the Roomba in the room as well as my little vacuum.

The dogs can't wait for the new addition, yeah right. It will be very interesting to see how they handle a baby, especially since they are used to getting all of our attention.

Our childbirth class has ended. We learned a lot and had a pretty good time each week.



Good luck to Sascha and Tim who are due in 3 weeks!!
