Daddy's Handywork!

For the past three months it seems all our free time has been sucked into building, painting, and putting together these homemade bunkbeds. For awhile I thought we'd never get them done. But I am happy to announce that beautiful beds have been what our girls have been sleeping in the last 2 nights. Bella looks like a little miget sleeping in a giant's bed, and she will have plenty of room to grow in it. I hope that these beds will be in the family for a long time. They just LOVE that their daddy built them special just for them!
However, one thing I wasn't thinking about when we designed these beds was how hard they would be to make. An almost 8 month pregnant chick should not be up on a top bunk bed trying to make it. It just isn't a pretty sight! Robert is working on the finishing touch- the LADDER! Of course that will make things so much easier and safer to get. It can not be done a day too soon! I almost have a wild hair to leave the beds unmade until the ladder is done. Almost! :)

They turned out great! All your hard work has paid off, and it looks like the girls think they are pretty neat too. I can't wait to see them in person when the new baby arrives.

I love them! Too cute! I got the giggles when you were talking about being pregnant and climbing on the top bunk...I had to climb up on Max's top bunk and read a story and say our prayers every night when I was huge with Kaysie! There were times I thought I might be stuck! ;)
