Another Busy Weekend


Jason and I had another very busy weekend.  Saturday, I did laundry all, cleaned my clothes out that I won't be wearing this summer, and my winter clothes and brought them all downstairs and put maternity clothes in my closet.  While I was doing that Jason replaced the wax ring on the toilet in my bathroom, because it had been leaking.  We also picked up the baby mattress and did some other errands.  We ate some dinner and at 7:45pm we started putting together our crib and changer.  We finished that at 10pm and we were both exhausted, but I have to say it wasn't too bad of a job.  This morning we started on the dresser about 10:30ish and that was not as smooth as the crib.  I had misunderstood some of the directions which made Jason a little frustrated.  The first mistake I made was I didn't put any of the lock washers on any of the bolts that pretty much held the dresser together.  In my defense though, in the written instructions it said nothing about the washers, it was only in the diagrams that it had the washers.   So that was my first mistake.  My second mistake was I used the wrong screws to put the back on the dresser, I used longer ones that were supposed to be used to put the drawers together, so when we started on the drawers the shorter screws weren't long enough to keep the drawers together, so Jason took al the screws off the back of the dresser and replaced them.  His patience was running a little thin, but we both survived and I think that was a good test on both of our patience for the future.  Haha!  So once we got the furniture together, Jason went to the gym and mowed the lawn while I put Cameron's Nursery together, dusted, swept, and painted the letters that we are putting in Cameron's room as well.  So we have definately had a very busy weekend and are exhausted.  So now we are headed to Chipotle for some dinner and relaxation on the couch, but I did want to post some pictures so everyone can see the beginnings of the nursery.  I hope you all enjoy.  Can't wait for little Cameron to be here.  Only 16 weeks to go!!!
