Day 59: Crib time!

Today was another day that daddy decided to work from home which Eva and I looooove. We took the kiddos to school, went and had some breakfast (hers was on the go as you can see in the pic), toured a potential house and location we'd like to live in, and then came home to set up baby girls crib. Tear. Since it was a mini-crib, I thought that maybe it would be a little less confusing and something you could just pop together pretty quickly. But nope. It had daddy beat a couple of times. But he pushed on...or maybe I told him to stop whining and keep on?? :)

Either way, he was determined to get it finished because he's ready to have his own room back. I'd keep her in with us forever if I could but considering that she's been sleeping through the night so well and it would be nice to be able to watch TV, or use the restroom in the middle of the night without fear of waking the baby; it's probably time. So after we got this little beauty finished and arranged and rearranged Skylar's bedroom furniture a few hundred times, we finally got it in. And I literally had to fight back tears at the thought of my girls sharing a room; sisters - something I never had and am excited that they have each other.

There are still a gazillion things to be done in this room to make it complete such as a cute decal I found that has a tree with 2 owls (obsessed with owls) perched on a branch with the quote "Sisters are we. Friends we will always be." LOOOOOVE!!! So there's that, then I'm getting some pics done in a couple of weeks and would like to hang one up of the two of them. I need to order a canvas of one of her sweet infant pics to hang above her crib because while I do like the "princess" plaque, it scares me a bit if it were to fall since it's made of metal. Not too concerned if the canvas falls since it'll be so lightweight with no sharp corners. Other then that, she's all set and as you can see daddy even installed the video camera/monitor so I'd feel more comfortable. I'm stalling a bit on washing her covers because big sis seems to have a cold, so once I feel she's out of that gunky stage, I'll wash everything and put her in her new big girl bed. And then quickly grab her out and take her back to my room. Hahahahaha.
