Is this the right sequence of operations when uncompressing deflated data?

I am trying to implement an inflate algorithm for deflate-compressed data with static Huffman codes. After reading the specification I came into conclusion that these the steps that I am going to need:

1-read the block 3-bits header
2-build Huffman tree based on the specification
3-decode the Huffman codes
4-decode the lz77 compressed data

Am I missing steps, or adding unnecessary steps?
