Nursery Decor

What better way to pass the day at home not-so-patiently waiting for the arrival of our now past-due little boy, than to share pictures of his nursery?  This may be the last time it looks this clean and organized, so take a good look.

We are so lucky to have this sitting room right off of our bedroom.  It has doors if we need them, but I can see the crib from our bed.  Doesn't get better than that!

Chris made this beautiful ruler using all of his favorite power tools, and thanks to our friends, we have a whole shelf of books waiting for story time.

We decided to decorate with an animal theme and picked out three prints to compliment a little turtle we found on our vacation in Bonaire.  A big thanks to our friend Diane for the quilt you see hanging on the crib.  It's a perfect fit for the room, and so SOFT!

Chris also made a shelf from some leftover redwood we had in the garage.  Decor items from our shower dress it up nicely.  Did you know, one queen size sheet set can be used to make a crib skirt, a chair slip cover, and two changing pad covers?  Well, now you do.

The dresser drawers are packed with cute little cloth diapers, tons of adorable outfits (not all grey, Mom), and lots of other baby goodies.  A local baby store rents the newborn size diapers in a variety pack so you can try them out with no commitment.  Don't worry... we have a few packs of disposables on hand just in case!

William is one lucky little guy!
