Nurserius Interruptus

Holden!

So unfortunately due to the dimensions of the room (it is nearly a perfect square) I can not get all of the nursery walls at once in a photo! So I had to take piece by piece pictures. We finally have the major furniture assembled (thanks to about six hours of work by your Dad and some help from your Mom) and all we have left is little furniture pieces and decorations.


I am making you decorated letters for above your crib! I am so proud of my craftiness, which I conceived of with just scrapbook paper, wooden letters, adhesive, and an Exacto knife.


Daddy making crib and your letters.



Ok since you have McAloon blood, you surely will appreciate all the time it took me to figure out that this was the perfect fan. Thanks to Uncle Andrew for coming over and installing into wall!


My cozy glider for the many times I will be up feeding you. You can see a little better the gorgeous seafoam green of your walls! We thought it would be a tranquil color.


Your beauteous crib. We took off closet doors and recessed the crib into the space. We laughed about telling you that you were living in a closet in your future. We plan to get some white mosquito netting to drape over the walls so it is not closet-like at all!


Your changing table/dresser. We are going to go get cute little glass pull handles for drawers tomorrow.


We are arranging the room in a sort of bungalow manner, with the pieces facing inward and we are going to get a nice circle rug for the middle. It is so peaceful! The thing in the middle is my workbench for your letters.


I was a bit dubious when I picked out this lamp but it is super cute for your room and gives it more of a zen peaceful feel:) I will get it during daytime so you can see it's neat paper pattern.

Ok hopefully we can get better pics in the daylight and maybe of more of the room once we make more progress! It is looking so great and I can't wait to see you in it and put up your decorations!
