Looking forward to: the crib will be arriving this week! It's been such a hassle.  The first one we ordered was damaged twice during shipment, then delivered to the wrong house in California????? so when I finally called to see where it was this time they told me it was out of stock!!!! We ordered the original one we liked from Target and it ended up being cheaper and included a free mattress!! :)
