progress

I'm getting there... so far, the room has been painted, we have installed curtain rod/curtains (don't worry... the horrible venetian blinds will be replaced by a blackout roller shade, since the existing blinds don't really make it a nap-friendly space), I painted the rocking chair orange, I put together the crib, and Rick installed the new lighting fixture. I'm in love with the black crib, by the way.

Still to do for baby room:
*another visit to Ikea for some TROFAST storage (just so you know, everything from Ikea must be spelled in all caps and said in a Swedish accent)
*acquire a changing table (since I'm obsessing over the design of this room just a bit more than I should, I want to get the one that matches the crib... we'll see if that happens!)
*Make the diaper decision (right now, we're thinking a combo of gDiapers and Seventh Generation disposables when necessary... if anyone knows about something cool, please tell me!)
*get a mattress and figure out how to make the crib bumpers and chair cushions from the fabulous sock monkey fabric

I'm feeling like I might be somewhat done with the room by the end of the summer, and that's a good feeling for sure.
