Sunday afternoon and before the Grand Prix started I decided that it was time to construct some of the baby furniture that we purchased the other week from Ikea.  So, screwdriver in hand I hauled the cot upstairs, having already constructed the chair the other day and opened up the instructions.

Me traditionally are not that good with looking at instructions, but experience has taught me that with these things it is crucial.  I have to say that the more I buy from Ikea the more I am thoroughly impressed with them.  As it turns out the screwdriver was not needed, in fact no tools at all because Ikea make things extremely simple to construct and all the necessary tools and fittings are included with item.

The cot was a doddle to put together, once I had the side of the correct way around!  It has a floating floor in that you can change the height of the cot very easily for when baby is smaller and larger. It was quickly ready for the forthcoming arrival of little baby Harry and solid as a rock (well not quite but ample for a 6 - 8 lb baby!).  I looks great next to the rocking chair, which is really a relaxing comfort spot for mum and dad after a long day working or baby sitting.
