Nursery Progress

This is the room before-  I haven't really decorated it as I knew it would eventually be the nursery, so it has odds and ends for furniture.  It used to be our office...

 Remember the bed we purchased from our neighbors- here it is.  So sad...all of Jerad's football 'wall of fame' will have to come down to make room for Katherine!

Fabric from Hobby Lobboy- a lady from Etsy is making our baby bedding.  Love it!

 Some possibilities for wall decor from Hobby Lobby.  Not sure what I'll actually use yet - we'll see!

The following weekend we purchased our crib!  And our crib mattress and toddler convertible rail. We bought a Serta- firm, but not too hard.  You don't want a plush mattress for a newborn as it increases the risk of suffocation. 

The crib arrived on a Friday afternoon- even though we were beat from the week of work, we HADDD to put it together Friday night!

I convinced Jerad to read the instructions- was much easier to install!

So happy!  We wanted something neutral, and feminine, but not so feminine that it couldn't be used later for a little boy. 

With fabrics.  Can't wait until we get our bedding!
