PK's Room - Update

Our baby furniture finally arrived on Saturday morning. We were told that the delivery window was between 9am and noon, so we woke up early just in case the delivery guys showed up right at 9am. Since we were up and ready by 9am, the Laws of Nature dictate that as a result, the movers would show up towards the end of the delivery window - which they did.

They ended up arriving a bit after 11am. They didn't leave until around 1pm or so. Why? Because we had a buttload of furniture (crib, glider, ottoman, and 2 dressers), AND our house is clearly NOT designed to actually have furniture moved into it. Our house is a split-level type of place where every room is on its own floor, and it alternates between a half staircase and a full staircase as you move up the house. Anyway, the movers had a hell of a time getting the furniture up our windy stairs, and it didn't help that the furniture was ridiculously heavy.

When all was said and done, we ended up with one little wall gouge just outside of PK's room. Not bad considering that we have evil evil stairs. Overall, we were very pleased with their service, and the delivery guys were surprisingly patient through the entire ordeal.

After the delivery guys left, we had the fun of moving the furniture around. Fortunately for us, they put the crib together, so we didn't have to worry about that. Yay! We must've spent an hour or so moving the furniture around the room to get the optimal configuration. When I say "we", I really mean that the hubby moved furniture around as I directed. He's all protective of me now that I'm at 29 weeks, and didn't even like me moving the glider around the room. The glider had felt feet on it, so it's not like I was lifting the darn thing. :P

Anyway, enough yapping from me. Without further ado, here are the pictures of PK's room! Enjoy!

Beautiful! You've got great taste, and it's so fantastic that the furniture can stay with PK for life.

I've never seen a crib with a that kind of shelf underneath it before. Does it transform into something?

We got one with a drawer and I would never recommend it. It seemed like a good idea, but I would've got more storage space by putting baskets under the crib.
