Addy's New Bed


Okay, so we have a pretty boring life, and I couldn't think of anything else to blog about, so this is the most exciting thing that's happened here in a while. We got a new bed with a trundle for Addy's room, because we want to move McKay into her room pretty soon. Matt picked it up yesterday and tonight we got it all out to put together and .... no instructions. I was pretty ticked about it, and tried to find them on the internet with no luck. I was ready to call the company and tell them what I thought (which I couldn't have done then anyway, because they were closed), but Matt, being the kind and optimistic person that he is, said we could figure it out. I never would have even known where to start, but Matt is very smart and figured it out. I was very impressed. We got it all put together in a decent amount of time, and only had to unscrew one thing! As were were getting the drawers out of the room where we had stashed them during assembly, what did we find stuck to one of them? Of course - the instructions. I have to say, though, it was pretty satisfying to look at them and see that we had put it all together right, even without them (thanks to Matt). Now we just have to get a stool for Addy so she can get on it by herself (it's pretty tall), and hopefully she won't roll off. At least when we have McKay in the trundle, if she rolls off, she'll just fall on him (just kidding).

Way fun. You sound like me as far as not knowing what to blog about, but it was fun to read about the new bed.

Raelyn, you're hilarious. I bet Matt LOVED that he got to do it without directions. I think the Jenson boys have some pride thing that makes them think they never need the directions....apparently that sort of practice came in handy. I will tease them less. Cute Bed! I want to come see it. and You of course. :) Hopefully soon.
