Well, our first dedicated weekend to the nursery is behind us. We were able to get quite a bit accomplished, but we definitely had some interesting bumps getting to that point.
Friday –
After work, Pat was determined to get our new door installed! Mark came over to help with this endeavor, however, it wasn’t as easy as Pat had hoped! After Mark left, Pat stood there and stared at the door. . . .he wasn’t happy with it and pulled it out!!!!! Needless to say, Mark came back over that night and helped Pat get it installed again! (Jess and I watched this process and got a good laugh out of it!) I don’t think anyone anticipated this to last until about 11:30pm!
Saturday –
Painting Day!! My parents came down to lend a helping hand. Mom and I had important shopping duties to attend to, and we left Pat and dad to do the hard labor! Saturday proved to be a very productive day as the room got a coat of primer, trimmed out, closet doors stained, and the baseboard trim worked on! All of the work left us all very tired and in bed early!
Sunday –
Dad jumped right into rolling the paint on the walls! Pat had to run yet another trip to Menards to get a few things. . . .those trips never seem to be quick! But, by the end of the day, we had a fully painted room and closet doors hung!
This week is busy for us as we are wrapping up our childbirth classes, meeting with friends, and having our Dr Appt. I know that I can speak for both of us by saying that we are excited for the weekend to be here! It will be another weekend dedicated to the nursery! Ryan and Kari will be making the trip down to Milwaukee to lend a helping hand! If all goes well. . . . .Sunday we will have a finished nursery!!!!!!!! I will be sure to have pictures posted next week. . . and if for some reason there aren’t any – you know something didn’t go as planned!
THANK YOU to Mark and my parents for your assistance last weekend, it is greatly appreciated!
Stay tuned. . . .
Love,
Jamie
