I assembled Haley's "big girl" bed this morning. It took longer than I thought it would. I mean really, how long could it take to put a bed together? I was unaware of the self drilling screws. I got them all in there, all 24 of them. I think that my right arm is now larger than the left from the workout.
When the mattress guys arrived, they had the nerve to try and tell me that I put the bed together wrong. I was about to bust out with the pictured instructions and everything. I guess upgraded cribs look different the regular beds. You'd think these guys would of delivered enough beds to know that.
My little prima-dona got to jump on the bed, hide underneath it, and pose her little heart off. This pose was her idea. After about a month of going through bedding websites, Haley has picked out the set that she would like. It's beautiful and very pink; from The Pottery Barn.
Well Kelly, I would like you to feel better. I know you are learning, but don't be discouraged. Although it thoroughly sucks, frogging is just something we all do. Thanks to a misprint in the pattern and how long it took me to catch on, I had to frog INCHES. I'm on as Easter deadline here. So, I am off to pick up stitches, but Haley will be wearing a new sweater with her Easter dress.
I have decided that Haley just must have a hand knit sweater in time for Easter. It would look so cute with her polka-dot dress.
I have picked out the fluffy bolero in Simple Knits for Little Cherubs, Erika Knight. Haley's is not going to be fluffy, but it should still be darling. So, must marathon knit. The only thing is that I have company coming coming to stay with us for the weekend. I can do it, I know I can.
