Ok, I admit I'm a little excited.... I just have to show off the nursery before its done. We're about halfway. We should be getting the crib tomorrow or Wednesay from my SIL. We are having the HARDEST time finding lighting. We registered for some cute lamps from Babies R Us and are hoping someone picks them up for the shower but if they don't we'll be hunting through garage sales and thrift stores for something. Same with the changing table -- hubby thinks she doesn't need one so we won't be spending any serious money for one.
She got her first baby gift yesterday -- from Auntie JenLuckenbach. Its the CUTEST picture of "The Cow Jumped Over the Moon" and looks just purrfect in the room. Its going to go right over where we plan on putting the crib - for the time being, use your imagination and pretend the blanket thats laying on the floor is actually laying in a crib
I re-upholsetered a chair in pale yellow fabric that had little green, blue, and white polka dots. We made matching valances.
Here's Pouncer inspecting the crib location. Who do you think will be the first tabby into the crib once we set it up? We're taking bets around here! Pouncer's been spending his days sleeping on the polka dotted chair, so Ash thinks he'll be first into the crib. I say Harry will be.
Lastly, here's where the new mommy will sleep.
We still have to fix the cords on the mini blinds so they won't strangle the baby and I need to fget some wire-mold so the electircal cord along the one window is fastened properly. Not sure if we need to worry about the lamp plug yet though.
What else? I'm sure we'll get lots of cute little pillows, stuffed animals, picture frames, blankets and such to really finish off the room with style!
