Austin's Crib!

Austin's Grandpa (Nick's Dad), promised us he was going to build a crib for Austin back when he found out we were pregnant. We were so excited to have something made by his Grandpa that we can use for all the kiddos and pass through the generations. Grandpa Weaver took on the project and worked for months and months late into the night to get this crib done. Meanwhile Austin has been in a little cradle, which was fine when he was a newborn, but after we got back from vacation he had enough of the little bed! We had him in a pack and play the whole vacation, which is probably twice the size of this cradle and Austin never wanted to go back. He would wake up in the middle of the night with both legs sticking through the bars, crying in frustration. When he didn't feel like sleeping and would roll onto his belly, his little eyes could peek over the edge! It was time to move on up...


When he was a newborn in the cradle. I can't believe he was so small!


This is still back in June





We were so excited to get the crib and it is even more beautiful then I expected. It looks like it cost us hundreds of dollars, but all made from hand so it is nicer then any cribs in the stores! I think Austin thinks he is in heaven too, he just rolls back and forth and turns around in the crib, it's a mansion to him!
