Last night we got a lot of work done on the house, got the couch back in the living room along with a few other pieces of furniture. We still have a ton of dust to remove from everything, but we've definitely made some progress. When you wipe off the dust as soon as the item dries, you can see there is still a dusty film. And every time you sit down on the couch, out comes a little cloud of dust. I hope Thuy isn't sick when she gets here from her dusty new home.
We got the crib put together, but still aren't finished with the nursery. We were sailing along putting it together and suddenly when we got to placing the springs, (thing that holds the mattress), it just wouldn't fit. We turned it, tightened it, and it just would not adjust to the proper height like in the picture, it would only go to the lowest setting. So after quite a bit of frustration on our part, we discovered the manufacturer placed the original screws in the wrong hole, making the bed unable to be put together properly until we took out the original screws and put them in the correct spot. I'm sure this is hard to follow, it was for us too, but we got it. But just the same putting together the crib was loads of fun and I think our buttery yellow walls look great. Tonight hopefully we'll get the nursery finished.
This afternoon I go to meet with our pediatrician for our "prenatal visit." We've been so busy with everything else that this morning I had to sit down and figure out my questions. Mostly just wanted to cover what tests we need to do when we get back and what ailments internationally adopted kids may be prone to. Dr. Brian Tanabi is who we chose, he works with Bill and they play basketball together, which makes it very nice.
