I did it! I finally, FINALLY, finished Lincoln's dust ruffle for his crib. It turned out pretty well I think. Here is a shot of the whole bed, so far, with his matching pillow case and fitted sheet. I still have to make the blanket that will take the place of the fish one he has in there now.
Here is the up-close-and-personal view of the dust ruffle.
On an angle.
Also, for FHE tonight we decided to start getting Ivan's room ready. We moved the computer desk out of the study (which will be Ivan's room) and into our bedroom, took the night stand out of our room and put it in Ivan's room. Then we took the changing table out of Lincoln's room and put it in Ivan's room, since Lincoln doesn't hold still enough to be changed on the changing table any more we figured Ivan would get more use out of it. Then there was a gaping hole in Lincoln's room where the changing table used to be, so we decided to rearrange Lincoln's room. This is a picture of how Lincoln's room turned out. His dresser is on the wall next to the crib, you just can't see it in this picture. The thing you can see, with all the books on top, is a book case, it's where the dresser used to be. Lincoln's room is the only one with a picture because it's the only one that's finished. Well, our room is I guess, but it was a mess :) and Ivan's room still has a lot of work before it will be ready for the little guy. But we made a start, and that's the important thing. Now the only dilemma I have is I'm not sure what to do with the rocking chair. I really want Lincoln's room to have a chair in it, because we read stories in there all the time, but I also really want a chair in Ivan's room because I get the feeling I'll be spending a lot of time in there during the late night hours and I'll want somewhere to sit. I keep telling Aaron I need to get a Papasan chair for one of the rooms (probably Lincoln's) but he doesn't believe me yet that it's a need and not a want. Guess I'll have to keep trying, eh? :)
