Work and Play

We've had a full past few days! We've done a lot preparing for peanut. Sandy has been building tons of stuff - the crib and a bookshelf. I helped enough to get some pictures taken :-) We're heading up to Portland tomorrow to pick up a couch and another bookcase. Yeah, it's hard core nesting time. The Carsons are letting us use their van. Thanks Carsons!
We took a break on Tuesday and took the boxes from the stroller over to the Greens. Macey was a little shy at first, but then spent most of her time trying to climb on top. Ethan crawled right in after we threw his pacifier in there. He thought it was the funniest thing to peek at all the adults through the windows. Good times were had by all.
Then, Jon came over late this afternoon to help us get rid of our old, dirty, holey couches. They're too gross and broken to give to Goodwill and our apartment managers said we could just throw them in the dumpster. Jon and Sandy hauled them out in the truck and then threw them overboard. We are now ready for our new couch and excited to host group at our house next week. Fun fun!

I helped a ton and held up the rail
(It's the lightest thing ever...ssshhh)

Ethan's hand was stuck in this water bottle
with his hand wedged in there with a toy.
He didn't seem to mind and may have
spent his whole nap like that. Talk
about mellow.

Ethan very happy to be in a box.
