The Nursery!

Well, I am 5 days from my due date and Baby S has yet to make his/her debut!  

Whenever this little one does arrive, his or her room is ready and waiting...here are some pics of the nursery:

This is the best 'before' shot I have of the room.  Since this was one of the few rooms not in regular use in our new house, it quickly became the dumping ground for any item we did not have a place for.  The paint colour was a beige/pink, I guess to compliment the lovely dusty rose carpet?

Benjamin Moore's Bleeker Beige has been the most-used paint colour in our home.  The basement, guest room, and nursery are all this shade.  It's a great neutral and looks different in each of the 3 rooms because of the lighting and decor.

Since we don't know the gender of our baby, we chose a bedding set from Pottery Barn that could work for a boy or a girl.  The bedding is called 'Sweet Lambie', and our lamb theme is continued throughout the room.

Here's the view from the bedroom door:

Our crib was purchased at wholesale price through Once Upon a Child (one of my new fave stores!) and is convertible.  As baby grows, the bed can be switched into a daybed and then double bed frame.

Here's a close-up of the bedding:

And the view from the other side of the room:

My sister-in-law Suelynn refinished this rocking chair for me as a shower gift.  It goes with the room perfectly and is super comfy.  I can't wait to rock Baby S in this special piece of furniture.

The last piece for the nursery will be the curtains.  I am waiting on finding out the gender before purchasing these but have them picked out already.

Come on Baby S...your room is ready and waiting for you!!
