Nursery completed....

and now we WAIT! I have been dreaming of what my baby's nursery would look like for so many years. I really have to say that it looks NOTHING like I had envisioned in the previous few years! :) My favorite colors are red, pink and black...which I always thought I would use. I do not like green! Ha! But when I found the bedding the very first time, I knew I wanted to use it. I had so many ideas for the room and just kept piecing things together. The room is FAR better than anything I had ever imagined and I CANNOT wait to bring her home into her room for the very first time! Berkley LOVES the glider and will sit in it with his toys if we leave the door open. I believe the 3 of us will spend ALOT of time in the glider once she gets here!
Justin and I have been so blessed since we found out we were expecting...not only has God blessed us with a child, but we have been shown that so many care and want to be a part of our first experience. I had put back money over the last few years to prepare for this time and we have not had to touch one dollar of it. Our family and friends have been so good to us that at this point, she could come today and we would NOT need one single thing! Pretty impressive! If I listed every single person that had bought us something, I would probably be typing for the next 5 hours, but I did want to make a note of the big items our family had purchased for us....

• Our parents bought our furniture...the crib and dresser. (Maybe if I knew they were buying, I would have picked out a few more pieces! Ha! Only kidding! Justin and I got exactly what we wanted!)
• My Aunt Becky and Uncle Bill bought our crib bedding and mobile for the room.
• My older brother Alan and his girlfriend Amanda bought us the glider and ottoman. I am so CRAZY in love with that chair!
• My little brother Jake and SIL Sarah bought us our baby monitor. (which Justin has already charged to ENSURE it works right! :)

Enjoy the nursery and I hope you like what you see...

Dresser (I plan to put frames on it or make a changing table, if needed)

The glider, ottoman and chandeliers

I LOVE her name above the bed, but they were a disaster to hang!

The ladder shelf...each bastet has something different:

toys, lotions, burp cloths/bibs and books

Bow Holder...my cousin Shelly made the framed part and I added the long ribbon
