Welcome to Gummy Bear's Den

So, Kate and i make a great couple. We each have strengths that we bring to the marriage. I cook, She cleans. I organize our house, she organizes our lives, etc. However, with the pregnancy, she's is doing the brunt of the work. My responsibilities seem to involve taking Tinsley out at night and not doing anything that makes her throw up in the morning. Here are a list of things that I now try to avoid doing when she wakes up: eating apples, eating cereal, sipping coffee, surfing the internet, watching tv, and sitting quietly.

Anyway, one thing that I am able to help with is emptying out and transforming our extremely under-used office into the nursery. So long oversized diploma and Jack Bauer Poster, hello rocking chairs and bassinets!

This isn't a complete "before" picture, since it already includes our new chair rail, but it does give the idea of what we are starting with. We haven't chosen colors, but the last picture below gives a sneak preview.










Love, Jake

I like that "sitting quietly" is something you need to avoid - I would think sitting quietly would help Kate not throw up! I hope the morning sickness goes away soon!

I think the poster should stay....
