For Christmas we received a new bed from Tyson's parents. Well, it was meant as a Christmas present, but the mattress was supposed to arrive mid-January. So, we actually got the king-sized box spring before Christmas and put our full mattress on top. It looked a bit silly, but it was actually kind of nice to have a little ledge to put random things on :)
Anyways, mid-January rolls around and no word on our mattress. We thought there must just be some delay, so we didn't worry about it.
Then, February comes - still, no mattress, but we got an email saying it had passed inspection. Well, at least we got an email. Mid-February rolls around and we finally got another email from the company saying that it had been inspected (again?...I still don't know). A couple of days later we received an email giving us a tracking number for the bed. So, on February 16th, it was loaded and left CA. The email said it could come anytime from that day (obviously not, since it was in CA) to March 2nd. So, we begin to believe that it was a scam and the company didn't really exist or something. In late February I looked online with the tracking number and it said the mattress had gone all the way to Indiana by the 20th, but was unloaded there! Then, a couple of days later - February 26th - the mattress was loaded again.
So, nothing came on March 2nd....still might be a scam, probably is. Then, on Tuesday, we got a call. It was some delivery company calling to set up a delivery time!!! We finally thought, "Hey, we might get this mattress after all!" So, on Thursday, March 5, 2009. Our mattress FINALLY arrived!!!!! Thank you, Grandpa and Grandma Walker for the amazing bed! It was a great....Christmas, well, more like, St. Patrick's Day gift! It is super comfy :) Needless to say, here it is - our new bed!
This is the bed all made up. As you can see, our queen comforter does not quite fit. Good enough for now. I just need to find the bed skirt :)
Reed had to test out the new bed
It definitely met his approval :)
Wow, I can't believe this! We actually got the mattress to go with our box spring! Woo Hoo!
This is a video, for all those who are obsessed with Reed, like I am, of Reed walking along the couch. My baby is almost one! Weird!

Oh the joy of large and comfy beds. ;)
And, by the way, I can't believe Reed is almost 1 either! It was just yesterday that you were running around all pregnant chasing little kids at CHA. Right? :)
