Before and After


Just a few short months ago, our second bedroom looked like this: a guest room/ office/ music room/ storage area. And now... ta da! Baby land!

We have been extremely blessed in that most of the items for this room were gifts. The crib came from my grandparents, the rocker from my parents, and numerous baby gear items from everyone we love. Our cup runneth over!

In other baby news, it looks like it could be any day now. According to the doctor, my official due date is the 18th--which also happens to be my birthday. (Couldn't have planned that if we tried!) If there is still no baby by then, we are planning to induce on Monday, the 21st. That means the baby would probably arrive on the 21st or 22nd, and we could all be back at home for Thanksgiving. Can you believe two weeks from now I could be updating this blog with baby pictures? Amazing!

Also, I am officially on maternity leave as of last Tuesday, the 8th. This means I am in full nesting mode: everything is getting cleaned, organized, put away, or thrown out. The only problem is that I run out of energy quickly, so I can't get as much done as I'd like. Regardless, we will be bringing our baby home to a beautiful new room just for her. What a lucky girl! :)

WOW! It looks perfect, everything looks so great. You guys did an excellent job. I bet you just love sitting in that chair and looking at everything. We're still putting the finishing touches on our room. We'll have pics up soon. ... Anyday now :)

Old picture, new question. Where did you get those stacked square shelves you have in the old nursery pic?
