the nursery!

baby girl's nursery is complete!  wahoooo!  i feel like we have been working, planning and thinking about this room since last march and now it finally put together.  a very special place to bring our little one once we come home from the hospital.

the space we are working with was on the difficult side.  the room doesn't have any windows {we call it the "cave"} and the room is a small one.  we decided to keep the double bed we had in the room incase one of us needs to crash in the nursery and also for our guests.  we could have purchased a twin bed for more space, but we had a double bed, so we went with that.  we also didn't have room for a rocker/glider and are going to see if we even need one of those once she arrives.  maybe we can fit it into our main room.

we finished this room just in time, as i started having some contractions on sunday night.  nothing too regular, so i think my body is "just practicing."  it could be days away or it could be weeks away.  we shall see :)


 my cute mama is working on an art peice to go above these drawers...
