Nursery


We finished the nursery this weekend! Yippee!
It is still Gillian's room. We tried to do it little kid, rather than boy or girl. Hopefully Gillian & Peyton will share the room in several months. Gillian seems pretty pleased with her room - although she doesn't look like it in this picture. Hey! She just woke up!
Gillian wanted a photo of her hippo....



The beautiful red color on the walls was already here, when we moved in. We painted the trim this gray & we love it! The paint we used is clay paint. It is really neat stuff. And, you can paint when you are pregnant. It's safe! And, you can paint in a room where your baby is sleeping already. It's safe! Check it out. It really smells & feels & looks like clay. Really neat.
I love the Dick, Jane & Sally prints we have been finding for the walls. My parents mounted these "rules" for me, for Christmas. Our favorite is the "we go to bed early" one!

Aww, it's beautiful! Really unique and wonderful. I want to know if that cushy chair is as comfy as it looks. :)
My husband finished our nursery recently... it's gender neutral too. I'm loving it: my new favorite room in the house, hehe.
I've been praying for you and your upcoming arrival! Hope all is well for you & yours.

Thanks you guys! We are excited about this room!
Melissa - the chair is great! It is a Dutailier. Scott got it for me before Gillian was born.

Dutailier? That's awesome! A little bird told me just yesterday I'm getting one of those for my birthday. :) You just made my day.

hug!
