Ta-Da!

I give you...the CRIB!!

Barking Bird Art

Finding what I wanted to frame for my nursery was a big deal, but now everything is squared away. The crib has been put together. Except for a dresser, the nursery is almost done.

Yesterday, I put this little frame together. Love it!
The painting is from Barking Bird Art. Love her stuff!

Shower #2

Dueling Babies -Sadly, Jeri is a month ahead!



Yesterday mom's lovely friends threw a wonderful shower for me and for my friend Jeri, who is also pregnant.

The food was spectacular. Every single thing was delicious and I definitely wanted to eat my weight in Debbie's chocolate cake.

Here are a few photos from the event! What a weekend!


Drink serving station - alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks alike.
Mini-cinnamon rolls and Sausage-mushroom-cream cheese cups.

The Southern Living Chocolate Cake with Seven Minute Frosting by Debbie. Wow!

My friend Emily is going to shoot some newborn photos for us.
She does great work, and you can see for yourself by clicking here!

While at a shower this weekend, Em was talking over the newborn photo logistics with me. She mentioned that I should pick up a cute little diaper cover for the photo shoot. Since we don't know the gender of our baby, she suggested picking up one for each gender and then having my sis get it monogrammed for us before the photo shoot. Cool.

I started looking at these precious little diaper cover/bloomer things.
Check out these two samples from The Polka Dot Store.





Can you even imagine such a small bum?

Gentle Giraffe

Spent some time with my cousin this weekend who introduced me to the Sleep Sheep. The Sleep Sheep plays four different comforting white noise sounds to that have "therapeutic qualities".
The sheep is cute, but when I went to the website, I saw the Gentle Giraffe, which I love. It is now on my list of must have's. How cute is this little drowsy guy!!??

Reading & Rocking

Unboxed the crib tonight and one of the pieces was broken. Sad face. Now I have to wait until Jas is back from trial before I can get my nursery completed.

There is one aspect that is now finished, though.
My chair/reading/rocking area. I think it looks SO cozy!
