<\/a><\/p>\nThis is the first night that Hannah is sleeping in the crib upstairs. Upstairs meaning the former attic, because it doesn’t quite feel right to call it the attic when it’s only partially being used as such right now. And anyway, I think “upstairs” is legal: if you’re in Manhattan and you’re on Canal street and say you’re going “uptown” that could mean you’re going to midtown or you’re actually going farther. And you could be in the 70s and be headed to Harlem and still say you’re going “uptown.” So upstairs is what I’ll call it for now.<\/p>\n
With Hannah in the crib upstairs, we can disassemble the portable pack and play that has twice served as a bassinet and also move the chair back into Mal’s room (only in our room because there wasn’t room in Mal’s room when both crib and bed were there). And so we have our room back! That means we can hang out past 8pm, which really means Adrienne can fold clothes in there and then we can watch The Daily Show on the laptop on the bed before we both conk out. It’s the little things.<\/p>\n
For those curious, we’re hoping to (sooner than later) move Mal upstairs as well, and it will be a shared bedroom for them. While we already have a cheap Ikea bed frame for Mal that came with the house, it’s too tall to ideally fit upstairs (I almost typed attic there). Luckily I browsed craigslist today and found a frame that was suitable (both aesthetically and because it was free), so we went and picked that up. It does need some paint though.<\/p>\n
Ok, gotta wrap up and go do something crazy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
