Due to Samuel's Impending Arrival




Yes, due to Samuel's impending arrival, we have decided that Eve's 10x10 room needs a little renovation before we consider moving in Samuel's things. So, as is typical, we turned to our favorite flat pack store for guidance. Our home now has more IKEA products than actual housing materials. But, I suppose, that's a testament to their affordability and the fact that I haven't yet lost my sanity by putting their furniture together.



I decided to go up instead of out and got a wardrobe. I don't think I've ever had such a challenging time putting an IKEA product together. My little helper, who was barely crawling when I assembled the kitchen, is now keen on hiding any number of the 1,000 plus pieces I need to complete the project. Also, it is a favorite past time of hers to shake the drawer I'm assembling as it hangs in the literal balance between a functional object and the pile of boards that it was sold as. Thankfully, the wardrobe is finished and mama, baby and wardrobe aren't any worse for the wear.

  1. Wow- that is saying something considering you assembled your entire kitchen cabinetry by yourself. Of course, Eve was less mobile back then!

  2. Hi! Hope you're feeling well. I was just curious where you sell your slings... I'm not looking quite yet :) but Etsy.com is a professional, classy little website where people sell their handmade "crafts." I think your slings might just be amazing on there. Just a thought if you felt like getting the word out. Your new logo looks awesome. I'll be contacting you about a sling, hopefully, in a couple of years :)
