Halfway there

We have hot water!  This is a major accomplishment after 12 days without any.  They are coming back tomorrow to finish and install the new furnace and then we'll have air conditioning.  We are moving up in the world, huh?  Even though the heat has finally broken, for now anyway, I am so excited!  It's been a crazy two weeks.  We moved back home today after two days at the hotel.

In lieu of doing school work, I assembled one of our cribs today.  This was just an exercise to make sure the mattress I got fits properly (it fits like a dream BTW).  So I ordered the second mattress while it's on sale, but will wait on ordering the other crib until we have the nursery wall up and walls painted and we can start putting things together, later in September.  I also needed to see how far the drop is from the bottom of the mattress (from the highest setting) to the floor (15"), so I can order the correct amount of crib skirt fabric and get started on those at some point in the near future.


I also just bought our tickets to NYC for later in August.  I can't wait!  We still have to decide where we are staying while we are in the Hamptons, though we are staying with my sister and her boyfriend at their new place while we are in Brooklyn.  It will be so nice to see them and to get away.  It's always nice to have something to look forward to. :)
