Check out the crib...


Here's the place where the little one will spend many quiet hours resting... yes we naively believe that... eyes closed, and fingers crossed (Thanks to Uncle Randy and Aunt Penny for their generosity). Regardless, I guess soon enough we will get to test the durability of the nice, new baby bedding. Call me frugal (or something less tactful), but why hasn't someone started the trend of covering the bedding/crib in plastic? Sure it's an eye-sore, but think of the savings! Oh well, as you can see Kim did a phenomenal job picking out our (manly) "baby chic" bedding. The crib will convert to hopefully stand up to the infant, toddler and teen years. We will just have to see how well the little guy treats it! You will also notice the awesome wood-working. Thanks to Kim's dad for all his help with the crown-molding and chair railing. This room was previously just a skeleton of what it is today.

I love the crib and the stencil. Beautiful We, too have a convertible and hope that it will last a good long time. BUT one thing no one prepares you for is the fact that most babies are part beaver and take pains to leave their mark in the crib! (ours has multiple nibble marks!) Our oldest nearly ate his crib. I swear it looked like a wild herd of beavers had been camping out in it! (We have pictures somewhere!)

Here is hoping your little guy is not part beaver!
