This weekend we started serious work on the nursery:
We put together the crib.
Doesn't Histrionic Dog look comfortable?
(Yes, for those of you who don't know him, Histrionic Dog is aptly named)
We also put together the changing table:
This was a nightmare: a surprisingly large number of holes were misaligned, and so we were doing a lot of forcing things together. It's funny: it's pretty decent quality in terms of materials--mostly solid wood, not particle board--but cheapie IKEA furniture goes together a lot easier. I guess they really know what they are doing, those Swedes.
We also had our Childbirth Prep class on Sunday, so we know a little bit more of what to expect. They showed film of some births, and I have to admit, I was checking out how quickly the women's stomachs went down after birth. Pretty quickly, I'm happy to say :-).
After that little bit of trauma, we went out yesterday and had a picnic. My sweetie decided to get in some kid practice....

Rino is having post-traumatic flashbacks at those crib assembly pics. :)
Is A ok down there? Makes me think of some kind of prison for very, very bad people. Or a Houdini trick, minus the water vat and locked jacket.
