Glider and Hutch!

Today we got the rest of the baby furniture assembled, the last of it was the glider and the hutch for the dresser. Both went together pretty easily and it now feels like a baby's room! We'll post more pics once we get a few more finishing touches completed but for now here are some pics from today (please bear in mind I had NO makeup on and was NOT expecting to be photographed but Ryan insisted...we're making memories he said, and he was so right):


Enjoying the glider!
Crib and glider with good ol' Humpty Dumpty, my favorite doll from when I was a baby

Helping Ryan...aka holding stuff for him

Ryan with it all completed!

I should also add that thanks to our generous parents we were able to get all the furniture we needed and wanted for the baby. The crib and mattress were from my mom and the dresser/changer and hutch were from Ryan's mom and pop. These are pieces that will grow with our little boy as he gets older (the crib turns into a full sized bed) and they can always remind him of his grandparents.

Wow - it's coming together so nicely, can't wait to see more pictures of the bedding and all of the clothes ;) You should have kept that last set that you loved, I think in your hearts you knew that you were going to get/have a boy!!!!! Everything looks GREAT! Congratulations!
