Last week, my friend and I were walking to our playgroup at the park and saw a twin bed (in four pieces) at the curb of a house near my place. It was in great condition, so we managed to carry it back to my house after playgroup was over. None of the hardware was with the bed, but amazingly, our friends Keenan and Rebekeh Kamae had some IKEA hardware from a bunk bed they had gotten rid of but still had a few parts. This is also an IKEA bed (the Hemnes line), so the pieces fit perfectly! They also gave us some wooden slats that go across and under the mattress to keep it up without a box spring (thanks Kamaes!!)
This will be Eli's bed eventually (and I promise I'll get a more boy-ish bedspread - this is mine from college), but for now it will be perfect for later this week when Ben's parents arrive. We have another mattress and bed frame, so there are two beds up in that room at the moment. Crazy!
And I decided to post some pregnancy pictures. The two below are from when I was 23 weeks pregnant with Eli.
I think I'm bigger this time around, but so far I'm close to the same weight that I was last time. I knew I should have done more sit-ups after Eli... my stomach muscles aren't holding the baby in as much this time!
(please excuse the funny pj pants)And I haven't been sick for a week now! whoo hoo. I hope it stays that way.
