Assembling the Crib

We went to pick up our crib from Babies 'R' Us on Saturday. By the way, you should never go to Babies "R' Us on a Saturday, but I digress. Kristen's brother Jason brought his XTerra since we were pretty sure the crib wouldn't fit in our car. But when they wheeled out the giant box, it ended up not fitting in his car either. Since we don't really know anyone with a truck, we decided to open the box right there in the parking lot and load all the parts into the car individually. We got it all to fit, and luckily the crib doesn't have any major malfunctions, since we felt compelled to leave the box at the store. We assembled it when we got home, and just for fun we decided to film the whole thing. After spending the afternoon playing around with various effects in iMovie, I am pleased to present our instructional video on how to assemble a crib in under 3 minutes.

Krissy, your belly is so cute. Cute crib and wall color, too. Cute, cute , cute. Can't wait to see you on the 10th!

I thought it was funny how many times I didn't realize I was standing in front of the camera and it's just a big belly shot... The entire assembly really only took about 20 minutes.

The first of many, some assembly required items to be purchased for the little one.

You didn't steal the crib, did you? That sounds like "The Sting" music, so I was wondering if that was your hint as to where you got it from and maybe part of the excuse for leaving the box at the store.

This makes that Mr.T video look entertaining. Maybey you should test it out by some dead weight in it, like a bowling ball or something. Lets face it your a graphics arts major not an engineer.
