So it is ready!
Curtains are up. Monitor is mounted. Sheets are washed. Drawers are stocked. Closet is full.
And yes--I am going against the latest recommendations & I'm using a crib bumper. I am 'that mom' that will have the monitor turned up so loud that I can hear each breath of my child until he's 4 years old...
Big brother used a bumper as well, so I feel confident in my choice to use one again.
AND instead of paying $100 for the Pottery Barn Kids bumper, I found one that matches perfectly on Amazon.com for $40. Go me!
I was in need of a small side table to set Noah's sound machine on, but didn't have much space to work with. I ordered a 'kid friendly' side table that is, indeed, kid friendly! It's about the size of Barbie. Haha! Owell--it does the job & I assembled it all by myself. Another 'Go me' moment!
Our monitor is mounted (see little white/black blob on left side of crib). I had a standard monitor with Connor, so can't wait to be able to see what's going on instead of just listening & guessing. Let's hope Noah doesn't reach out & rip the camera off the wall eventually...
I still have an oar to hang on this wall, but I'm waiting until I have a photo grouping on the wall as well. Yes, I am grateful for the cushions I found to revamp my old glider. And yes, it bugs me that the diaper trash can doesn't color coordinate with the room.
With only a few weeks left, all we have left to do is wait. :)
