The room formerly known as our guest room
July 1, 2007 at 11:19 pm | In All Consuming, M'ijo | 32 CommentsIs now looking more and more like a nursery.
It’s got a bright red crib*.
We bought a car seat and had it installed (in the car).
Then we bought a dresser, and had to uninstall the carseat to get the dresser in the backseat.
Idli seems a little nervous.
Bart is oblivious.
One week until he’s back in our arms, for good, and everything changes.
*Yes, we painted the crib. We used this fantastic paint. You tell them the brand, name, and color number of the color you want, and they ship you (free fedex shipping) a no-VOC version of the paint.

So how much time are you spending in there just looking at everything?

I have goose bumps looking at your pictures. I remember that week so well: he’s coming home! he’s coming home! he’s coming home!
So excited for you.

Damn, girl! You must be so excited. It must be a blast to be running around getting everything done with an actual DATE in sight. Let me know if it was a good thing to have waited or should I be doing more stuff now rather than waiting for “THE CALL”.

I love the nursery! It’s very sophisticated, yet fun. Loving the red crib. Any thoughts on art for the walls? Maybe some blow-ups of your favorite photos from your two trips? You took some really good ones and flickr makes it easy to order. Just an idea. Walls would also look cool with some nice prints! Thanks for that link! I’ve been wanting to find some paint I could use!

The crib is very nice, but I’m super-impressed with your car seat. Boo has that one, too. Excellent choice.
FYI – if you’re ever looking for a second seat, for whatever reason, the Fisher Price Safe Voyages has a Britax Marathon body and is a very good car seat for about $150 less than the Marathon.

Lots of luck and love on your journey.

I love the red crib, too! So excited for you!
Comment by Denise — July 3, 2007 #
oh, your kitties are cute.
they are SO in for it. You’re so mean to bring them an already-mobile creature to torture them. Our cats prefer the non-mobile types and then, by the time they’re mobile, the cats are used to them.
They still give us nasty looks when we bring Niblet over. They’re like “hey, I thought we got rid of her!” All she wants is to “pet” the cats. Especially their tails….

Very excited for the three of you. I am also panting over the gorgeous red crib.
