Weekend with Baby Mama's Mama

It was a busy weekend at Baby Aplin headquarters. Grandma Moonpie showed up to help with registering at the scary NYC baby stores (Babies R' Us in Union Square = large migraine). The next day she helped Beth assemble the crib, while the baby daddy was MIA in Manhattan (probably guzzling beer with his non-married, non-baby expecting friends).

Check out the handywoman skillz.

After: Crib from IKEA with all the baby clothes we own so far.


Cute, no?

Handywoman skills screeched to a halt when it came to assembling the dresser. Dead-beat baby daddy finally showed up to do something for a change.



How psyched does he look? PSYCHED.

Photos of finished product coming soon. Please try to contain your excitement.

In other news, baby Aplin is still kickin away and acquiring more real estate than ever. The little dude(tte) is approximately 13 inches long and weighs 2 pounds. Supposedly the baby can now recognize its parents' voices - let's just hope it can't remember everything we say.
