Day 27/365: New dresser for our baby Sherysse Caleigh


This is what we purchased at Ikea last Saturday for our upcoming baby "Caleigh". It arrived this morning and hubby spent around three hours assembling the whole thing. He's really meticulous, I guess it comes with being an engineer lol.

Rein was also trying to "help" him, but as we all know, she probably added an extra hour to the whole process. She calls him "Handy Manny" and also loves to sing "Let's go to work, teamwork..." while they are fixing things. He loves to do these things and acts like a little kid building a Lego set hahaha.

The color that we chose also matches our bed and other furnishings we bought from Ikea. We love the light and cool color of it. Hubby always says that when it is time for us to build our own home, he'll give Ikea a pretty good day at the cashier lol. He has this idea of building everything inside of that house by himself and he gets a kick out of it each time. Boys will be boys i guess.

As always, Thanks for stopping by! :) Have a fabulous day/night! :)

I love the pics of your hubby doing what he loves to do. We have the same dresser from Ikea in white in our boy's room. How funny to hear about Handy Manny and the other kid songs - I guess all they have the same kid shows all over the world!

Love the pics ... lovely dresser! I adore Ikea too! I'm like a kid in a candy store every time we go. Last time we made a trip to Seattle (five hours away) with a U-Haul truck!! LOL! Great to see daddy assembling it for her!

We have an entire bedroom full of this furniture from Ikea. When you can see it (under the mess!) I really love it.

Great pic, love the angel!
We have the same dresser too, but in a darker color. It took forever to assembly, thanks to all the drawers, but once it is done it looks great.
