Well, it’s mostly done. The only thing I have to do is put up a ceiling fan that we have for in there. Other than that, it’s done! We’ve assembled both cribs and I’ve put together one of the two dressers. It seems that they forgot to put the knobs for the dresser in the box (or we lost them) so we’ll replace the hardware on the dresser with something cool.
We still need to order the matching changing table and we’re going to try to squeeze a rocking chair into the room too. We may have to arrange the furniture a little differently, we’ll see once everything is in there. Also to come, matching curtains, some shelves, etc.
We’ve gotten a bunch of baby clothes already from various friends and family members. Grandmom Nancy got the kids a TON of baby stuff. We saw them this past weekend and ended up going home with an entire trunk full of goodies (thanks!) James and Stacey also let us borrow a ton of baby gear. Bill and Shannon also sent us home with some loaner maternity clothes for Jen and more clothes for the babies. At the rate we’re going these kids won’t need any clothes for the first year or two (wahoo!)
So far everybody has been so great and generous. It’s so exciting to see how excited everybody else is for us too. We’re very lucky to have such nice friends and a caring family. Our babies will be lucky to be around such good people.
