Finally our Cooper bed has arrived and I also received a birthday gift!

Cooper has landed!  Unfortunately with the holes incorrectly drilled so NFM could not set it upon arrival today.  They are sending out “maintenance” – sounds like this is a frequent issue with this type of bed and I was not about to order another at 10-12 weeks out.  Especially if the next one has the same issues.  Here it stands, un-assembled but still beautiful! I was worried I was going to have to repaint the wall if the colors clashed, but I think it may be okay!

In other news, my husband gave me my birthday present yesterday – a week early! It had arrived that day and I love that he didn’t make me wait to open the present.  I am NOT a patient person!  I was totally shocked – he pulled it from my “not in this lifetime” birthday list.  The note with it was so cute – he said I did deserve it in this lifetime! I even tweeted how much I loved the jacket and Two Penny Blue re-tweeted me and sent me a birthday greeting and said my husband was a sweetie!  I couldn’t agree more!  And how amazing/darling is the eye catching packaging?!?

Although it is spring/summer-ish with the mint color and linen herringbone, I plan to wear it this fall.  Again with the no-patience thing, I know there is no way I can wait until 2013 to wear this bad boy.  I LOVE it!!
