getting ready

We've been busy!

Matt and I put the crib, bookshelf and parts of the nursery together.

Note Matt's 'Plan B' shirt while assembling the baby's crib. The irony was not lost on us (it is the unfortunately named Bloomberg employee incentive plan). And no, he doesn't wear it outside of the house!

Gus even got himself into the action, helping Matt with the bolts.

The baby will start out in our room and then move into the nursery at some point.

Matt hanging the inspiration for the nursery colors, an alphabet animal poster from Ink & Wit.

A silhouette of Gusto as a puppy, this was a gift to Matt for our first anniversary.

8 weeks and counting

The nesting has begun!

Alli hs been sewing up a storm.

Bassinett = done

Kitchen Curtains = done

Recovering Nursery Glider = in process

Matt is getting in on the action, too, and has steam-cleaned the living room and is working on repainting a dresser for the nursery.
