Its all fun and games 'til the crib won't fit through the door.

Yep -- you read it right, the assembled crib would not fit in the nursery doorway. It went a little something like this...

Mary-Margaret's Mom and Dad came to visit a few weeks ago (not just to see us, but to depart from Charleston on a cruise), and offered to help put our newly delivered crib together. Wesley and Dad worked Sunday morning to assemble it, and luckily it came together very easy with little to no hassle. How exciting! A real crib -- perfectly put together and ready for a new occupant. We watch as they men maneuver it up the stairs (no easy task) with ease. Then, that was it. Our good luck had come to a halt. The crib won't fit in the doorway?!? Really?!? Well - they try it every way possible... sideways, angled, reverse, you name it. Alas, we must disassemble it. We managed to weave it through the door with only one side off -- and then unlike Humpty Dumpty -- it could be put back together again! Thanks to Wes and Dad!

None the less, we have a crib! Simple, white, and ready for baby. Just as we wanted. Things are sure coming together smoothly. I hope it continues! Our bedding should be here this week as bits and pieces of the nursery are all fitting together nicely. June will be here before you know it!

Here is some documentation of the crib incident:
