Crib Ready

The nursery is getting more and more complete each day. Last night I put together the crib in just under 2 hours. Silly me forgot to set it to the highest height, because I followed the instructions too literally (you would think they would show the highest setting in the diagram instead of middle height since most people would be putting the crib together for a newborn). I remembered to take some before and after photo's this time.

We also started getting some gifts from the registry. We had been getting some clothes here and there (thanks Tony for being the first even though she won't get to wear the Illini hoody for a year and a half), but now blankets and other odds and ends are coming in. We also bought the curtains and rug, so its really starting to look like somebody's room.

Saturday we will be taking our second parenting class at the hospital. 8:30-4:00 with no chairs (marathon course with no chairs yikes!). I just hope it all makes sense and that I can retain enough to be there when I need to be.

Don't worry. You won't remember much from your classes. At the hospital (assuming that's where you are going), the nurses will help you when they can. When you get home, you'll figure it out. It's amazing how resilient kids are, and how quickly you are able to take care of them without knowing how to. It's really hard to break them.
