Wish List for Joseph and Hadassah

Furniture- (We are adopting two children now, but expect to have more (at least 4) naturally or adopted.  That’s why we are “wishing” for two beds in each of the children’s rooms.)

•	2 Captain’s or mate’s beds for Joseph’s room. Suggestion- http://www.bedroom-furniture-direct.com/Prepac-BBT-4177-PRP1108.html 
We liked this one because it has deeper drawers (19”).  There really is no room for dressers in the kids’ room because they will be in dormer rooms with low ceilings.  So these types of bed will serve as their dressers.
•	2 Captain’s or mate’s for Hadassah’s room.  Suggestion- http://www.bedroom-furniture-direct.com/Prepac-WBT-4177-PRP1121.html 
•	At least two children’s school desks for the classroom 
•	At least two chairs for the school desks
•	Hamper for each child’s room
Bedding
•	Mattresses for the beds (four  two twin)
•	Boys comforters, sheets, blankets and pillow shams (orange and/or blue)
•	Girl’s comforters, sheets twin duvet cover (sage green, pink or periwinkle) and blankets

Clothing
	Joseph  (He was measured in March—height 44”, arm 21”, waist 20”, leg 26”, they forgot to measure his foot, but they are a little smaller than Hadassah’s- 71/4”—So we are guessing his clothing size—about 5-6 and shoe size—about 13)
