New Carpet!

New carpet was (finally*) installed today, from near 9am to 2pm with the boys onlooking every step of the way. My wife said our oldest was perfectly happy with the blue padding, and informed one of the installers that he could be done after installing just the pad. There was one hiccup: the supplier forgot to send out pad for the toy room! In the end we were upgraded to a premium foam pad as that is what the installer had in his van. You can definitely feel the difference, and you should for how expensive that pad is.
After it was all said and done, and nap time had past the youngest decided it was comfy enough to sleep on. I think it passed the test.

Kudos to my wife who managed and oversaw the whole operation today while I was attending a training.

* We had originally ordered carpet back on May 20 in hopes of having it installed the first week upon moving in. After multiple confirmations from store employees saying it wouldn't be a problem the installer said that June 8 would be the first date available!
