Baby furniture

During our last week off after New Year's Sandra was looking on Marktplaats (the Dutch eBay) for baby furniture and found a nice set. For a few weeks now we were looking for baby furniture in white wash that wasn't only for an infant, but stuff that could be used a little later. Sandra saw the ad about 10 minutes after it was placed and sent an email. Within 30 min San talked to the woman and it sounded good, so we had an appointment for to pick it up the next day. Since it couldn't be taken apart we borrowed our neighbor's car and went with both cars down to Delft (about 50 min drive). It was neat, sturdy, and of good quality. Maybe a quick lick of paint and a new mattress cover, and it's good to go. All for €175! The people were very nice and quite well-to-do, but they were very hospitable and offered us some tea before helping us pack it up. San was a champ helping carry everything upstairs, which we did very slowly (it was lightweight and not having a big belly yet helped). What a difference- that really helped make the baby atmosphere stronger! We both open the door and look in and get warm feelings each time we walk by the room.
