There's A Crib In My Room!!!

Wow! Mark and Michelle were over a few weeks ago and they helped me prepare for Hannah to come home. One of the exciting moments of the day was when we put Hannah's crib together in my room!!

Reading the instructions
When Mark brought this piece up from the basement and placed it against the wall I began to cry. He's like, 'What's wrong? No crying! Miiicccchhhhheelle!!' LOL! Just seeing the crib begin to take shape after having been in the basement in a box for over 3 years, was a little overwhelming. Heh...sorry Mark.
Work in progress
The finished crib
Hannah's name on the wall

Wow....this is the crib where my daughter will sleep!
Thanks for all your help Mark and Michelle!!

  3. Yay!!! Soooooo cool!! and if you ever want to be EVEN closer to your sweet girl you can remove the one side rail and push her crib right up next to your bed!!! I did that with Caden and Carter and I loved it!!! :o)

  6. I know it's early for suggestions, but when you and she are ready to transition her to her room, put her down for her nap in her room during the day so that she sees where she is and then when she goes to bed that night, it won't be so scary.

    You'll know when it's time and you'll know your daughter well enough by then to know if this suggestion will work, but it worked for us.

    Getting so excited for you! The nursery is beautiful!

  7. It's really happening!!!!!!!

    Of course you had to cry. Becoming a mom is such a huge miracle!

  10. The room looks great. Can't believe that the time is here.
    I don't want to be a downer, but since you said that you had your crib for 3 years, did you happen to check if it was recalled. If it was made by Simplicity, they have had a TON of cribs recalled. My daughters crib was one of them.
    I just wanted to check to be sure nothing happens to your little one.
