Well, sort of, anyways. It was my first Monday of my maternity leave, and I'd given myself a good stern talking-to about getting some things on the list done.
.
So Am & I went booting off to Ikea. I'd done my research ahead of time via the Intarweb, and printed off a shopping list that gave me the warehouse locations for the big items. IT GAVE ME THE WAREHOUSE LOCATIONS! I didn't have to mumble through the showrooms, looking for the red sniglar, to figure out what aisle & bin the sniglar live in. It was awesome.
.
I mean, we still zoomed through the displays, because there were two things I wanted that weren't in the warehouses, but my sweet heavens, you wouldn't believe how much time that list saved. We left at 11 & were home by 2, including a stop at a drive-through & over an hour of driving time.
.
Then while Am napped, I put together the rattenfot & the arnolf & did a couple other things in Am's new room. Yes, a big girl room, all for her*. I'm enjoying decorating her big girl room so much more than I enjoyed setting up the baby's room. I know Amoryn now; before, all I could gauge her personality on was how often she kicked & bomped in mah belly.
.
She's tucked into her new bed**, in her new room, and she seems quite enchanted with it all. Updates & photos to follow!

*She was already in a proper bed; we've just relocated her so that the baby room can stay the baby room.
**Due to situations beyond my control, Am is now sleeping in a queen-size bed. It's HUGE compared to her!

how much fun is that?! now.. don't overdo, ok?
all that stuff sounds like wollmeise colourways, doesn't it?
It was only small things - and so much fun! She's tucked in & sleeping well.
It does sound like Wollmeise... although I don't think you get wooden pegs, hex screwdrivers, or that many screws with the yarn!
