The Nursery

Now that we know we're having a little girl, all kinds of conversations have started around our house, least of which is what to name her. You all will have to wait for that decision until she's born though! We've decided to keep it a secret so that you all have a little something to look forward to, as if her arrival isn't reason enough! ;-)

The next major topic of conversation has been how to decorate her nursery. Justin and Ashley have been a huge help through this whole process, putting up with my multiple ideas and pictures of bedding I want their opinions on. I believe we've finally decided on bumblebees as the theme and the bedding pictured above from JoJo Designs. The next step is to start painting and decorating the walls, all of which I'm leaving in Justin & Ashley's capable hands as they have a much better eye for that kind of thing than I do.

Her nursery furniture is from Munire Furniture and the crib is pictured in the second shot. We opted for a lifetime crib that will convert to a full size bed so that it grows with her. Hopefully, that means she won't need any new furniture for several years, or that's the idea at least!

In addition to picking out bedding and nursery themes, Justin and I almost have our baby registry ready to go. I had no idea until we started this process just how many options were out there and how much you could get for a baby! Thank goodness for online product reviews and the help of a few good friends (Robyn & April!) to tell me what I really do need and what I only think I need. I'm sure there will be a few things that get left off, or added on, that fall into one of those two buckets but the basics are covered.

That's all for now. Hope everyone has a great week!
