02-7-2008 - Nursery!

My mood while writing this blog: Happy

This past weekend we got the nursery started! My husband worked his butt off and painted the entire nursery and then laid the carpet! I'm so grateful for him=) The paint color is called "Anchors Away"..it's a light blue but not too light. We thought the name was fitting for a pirate themed room=P. The carpet is a sand color which looks great! We also bought molding for the floor boards yesterday and he'll probably do that tonight!We got a fleece throw that looks like a pirate flag hanging on the wall and I think that's what made the nursery really come together! Now we're anxious to get the crib, changing table and dresser in there! My parents are buying that for us but it might be a while before we get it b/c they are both healing from surgery/injury!

Our dog is so funny b/c we really think that he thinks this is his room. If the door is closed, he stands there until we let him in. And then as soon as you let him in, his tail starts wagging and he walks around the room like he's showing it off..lol! We told him that he has to share with Kelly when he gets here. I have a feeling that Kelly will have a roommate=).

We have the crib bedding ready and also a baby swing so far=) We have received so many clothes already and the little man isn't here yet..lol! A lot of my friends had boys last year so Kelly is getting a lot of hand-me-downs which is AWESOME! We also got a cradle mattress, crib wedge, microwave sterilizer and extra car seat base! I feel so blessed to have gotten all of this already! And for free=)

I can't wait to see the nursery when it's completed..it's going to look so awesome!
