welcome to the crib

Ok... so I have finally got around to taking a picture of the finished crib! After quite an ordeal with the missing instructions and zillion of pieces, here is the "after" picture of all our assembly turmoil. Hooray! What looks to be the most basic piece of furniture was far from... and then add to that our constant checking to make sure everything was assembled correctly (hmmm.. can you tell this is our first baby?), and it just made for a long assembly nightmare. So now onto the fun part... finding baby bedding! I will take pics of the entire nursery and post soon!

Exciting and brings back so many memories. :) It wasn't really that long ago for me but it does feel long ago somehow! (my son is a little over 2yrs old now).

So lovely! Don't you feel like now that you have the crib up - it is now a reality? I felt like I was in a fog and as soon as the crib was assembled it all hit me!

You should have called me ! Due to moving rooms and houses and general nonsense I can now put together any crib in about 13.6 minutes ! I can even tell what hardware is missing and probably have it on hand! LOL. Now the fun part - Love baby bedding !!!! Enjoy : )

I remember your post and pic of the "million piece" crib! Not gonna lie, it looked very daunting indeed.

It turned out LOVELY...I adore the style and the dark, rich wood color is fantastic.
