Whoa!

Sunday marks the halfway mark in my pregnancy.  CRAZY.  I have no idea where the time has gone!  The weekend agenda will include much baby-related stuff (crib shopping, a prenatal yoga class, some online registry-making, and glider repair) as well as a few non-baby-related things (replanting the flowers in the planters next to the front door, which I've managed to kill).

Last month my boss gave me the rocker/glider that her husband was rocked in when he was a baby.  Overall it's in great shape:

I love that it isn't a true rocker either, which means that Griz's tail won't get rocked on if she wanders around behind it.

There are a few issues that need to be addressed though that make it less than baby-proof:

 Not sure why there are little nails sticking out of it.

There are also screws sticking up from out of the bottom that need to be addressed.

So, I need to clean it up, make it baby safe, and patch up the holes left by those little nails.  I also want to scope out some fabric for the cushions and recover those some day.  At this point, I'm leaning toward keeping the wood the current finish rather than painting it, but we'll see the state of things after I'm done cleaning and patching it this weekend.
