Construction of baby junk
This weekend we finally got down to some serious baby preparations. The three showers that were thrown for our baby in various states provided us with plenty of clothes and lots of gift cards. We finally bought a crib on Friday. Upon getting it home and building it quickly and easily, we decided we didn't like it that much but we could live with it. On Saturday, we went shopping for other baby things, and Tony found a crib he liked so much better. So we bought it and briefly had two cribs in our house. After the return of the first crib, we set up the second crib. The second crib was a real pain in the ass to put together. But assembling it paled in comparison to the monumental task of building a bookshelf that we bought at IKEA. That piece of crap took forever to build and pushed Mama and Daddy to new levels of anger and frustration. If it weren't so heavy, I think Tony would have tossed it out of the window at several points in the construction. After an hour or two of profanity and dirty looks between partners, we finally slid the diabolical bookshelf into position. It actually looks quite nice and is a wonderful place for all of Maggie's books, toys, etc. I'll take a picture sometime and post it.
