Nursery Prep

When we bought our new house, we knew the room next to ours upstairs would be the future nursery. Turns out the room quickly became a nursery, only serving as storage before. Things still aren't done, but we're making progress.

We decided to keep the cream color, as it was a little boy's nursery before we got the house. (Also, Erik was excited to not have to paint!) It's a small room, so I don't want it it to get too busy and overwhelming. But, I wanted color and liveliness! I couldn't decide on a "theme," so went with a color scheme instead- blues and greens. So far I'm liking it! I got the crib, shelf and dresser/changing table all second hand! Love it when I get deals! 

The rocker was a gift, and I love it! I went with a bold color, but so far I like it! It's comfy too, which I know will be helpful for those middle of the night feedings.

I'm still waiting on some prints to arrive in the mail. And I've got a bunting banner to order. My decision making skills are not good these days, so I'm still scouring Etsy. So, the room is still coming together, but I'm loving the process along the way. Stay tuned for future finished pictures!

House, Puppy, and a Baby!


Life got busy for a few months! In May, Erik graduated from grad school and he got a job as a middle school counselor. So, then we bought a house. Then we got a dog, Harriet. She's a labradoodle. Then we found out we are expecting a baby. Baby Boy T is expected to arrive April 16th.

It's been an adventure, that's for sure. But such a wonderful adventure that we are so thankful for.
