A sign of things to come...

So let me set this straight.  We have bought nothing…I mean NOTHING for this baby yet.  But my mother-in-law bought us a really cute Pack-N-Play on Black Friday.  It’s been sitting in the room that will be our nursery since then, and we decided that maybe we should at least put it together to make sure it had all the parts.  (Our luck we’d wait 6 months and then it would be missing the whole bottom or something!)

Well, let’s just say that if you’re planning on having a child anytime in the next few years you should run out right now, buy your Pack-N-Play and begin putting it together!  Our intention was to put this together quickly (HA!) and then just pack it back up. 

We definitely had fun and laughed a lot, but if this thing was truly meant to be able to pack up and take with you…then it would have to be easier to put together!  First, the directions were in 4 different languages and it took me a good 5 minutes to find English.  Then, they aren’t very clear so nearly everything we did…3 steps later had to be reversed.  (Sammy finally gave up on us and went back to the living room!)  Adam then found the storage thing that clips on the side to hold diapers, wipes, etc and asked, “What’s this, my drink holder?”

Oh, geez!  If this is a sign of things to come, we better get everything else that needs to be put together ASAP!

The final product!
