He's quite a handy dude, that husband of mine. The reviews I read of this particular kitchen set said that it was a bit on the challenging side to put together. Not for my man! All said and done, it took him maybe about 30-45 minutes. Can you tell I'm proud? Nah...
So here's the finished kitchen.
Super cute, no? The only thing missing is a refrigerator, but we can always get that later. The original kitchen that we ordered that Amazon did NOT send us was pink and included a little stovetop/oven/sink and a separate fridge. I was just a tad worried about the pink-ness of it, so when it came time to order a different one (did I mention that Amazon did NOT send us the one we ordered?), I looked for one in natural tones.
When Annabel found it this morning, she immediately set to putting things in the little microwave, cabinets, pushing buttons and loving it. I have video of that, but my phone is acting a bit wonky right now, so I'll have to post that later.
To other news, I'm going on a little girls' trip -- a cruise to Cozumel and Yucatan! I'm leaving tomorrow! I'm nervous as hell about leaving Annabel for this long for the first time. Not because I don't think she's in good hands (she's got an awesome Daddy, and lots of loving helpers). But because I don't know how I'M going to get through the next week with her. I can count on one hand the number of times in our marriage that Chris and I have been apart for a week or more. So that's hard enough, much less missing my Binkie too??!! Oh well, at least I know I'll be with my girls, and they'll help me through it :-) Any advice from you other Moms out there?
In related news, I guess this means I'll be missing some days posting on the blog while I'm on this big boat in the Gulf of Mexico. I'll blog when I can, I promise! But apparently they charge you for every little thing you do on a cruise, so I'll have to be careful with my onboard expense account. Wish me luck!
Ciao for now,

Hey! I thought I left a comment on your first post, but I don't see it. Maybe I'll be more successful this time! I love the new kitchen. We could use some of Chris's handiness around here; please send him by. So let's see some cruise pics! I can't wait . . . :)
