preparing for baby

Baby's room!!!! I just fell in love with this bedding, mostly because of the quilt (even though I know you can't even use it). So I thought it was pretty clever to hang it on the wall.

We've been getting ready for the baby to come for a long time now. I finally got her room finished. Doing so also meant re-doing Braedens room since he was using the baby furniture. Above is the little flower border I painted, it matches her bedding.

Her bassinet, it has lamby sheets that I just love and the blankey was mine.
I have always loved this furniture even when it was Braeden's.

This is the project I made out of the old cards I found. They were the cards my mom recieved when she had me. I thought they were so pretty and dainty. The little booties hanging on it were mine too.

Her crib set. The little bear was a gift to Scott's little cousin Keith from Scott's Mom. Keith was very generous to give it up for her.

This is what Braeden's room looks like now. We drove 120 miles to IKEA to get him this bed and desk. It took days to put together and then parts of it didn't fit. My dad had to come over and cut 5 inces off the bottom and 4 inches off the end of the desktop.

Then he had to remove the exisiting ceiling fan and install a new light fixture so Braeden could get in and out of bed.

He loves having a bunk bed, I miss being able to lay in bed with him to read at night, and
when I check in on him at night
I just have to listen for breathing because I can't see his sleeping face. :(
