We took some Christmas money and gift cards to IKEA this weekend and got two of these shelves (at half off!). Cole and I then spent the next 1 hour and a half putting one together. I put the second together in about 25 minutes. I had more fun with the first.
See all the photos here of our fine work here..

2Nice work…
In my experience, it’s not working with the little one that slows down the process the most, it’s all the pausing to pose for pictures to capture the event. :)

3If you would have read the directions, perhaps it would have been done more quickly…

4Sometimes we forget to enjoy doing things with our children, even if it sometimes is inefficient. Mine are grown now and I can remember times when all I worried about was “getting the job done”. I also remember the times when I remembered to enjoy the moment. The latter ones were the ones I wish all of them had been.
