Avery Grace's Nursery

The nursery is finally done.  As in completely done...  So relieved that all that is left is a sweet baby to sleep in it!  I gotta say, I'm pretty stoked about the finished product.  It was a joint effort between M (mostly M) and me...with a lot of help from my mom and M's parents.  Matthew set up the crib, hung the chandelier, painted the room, painted the changing table and added new hardware, and built the bookshelf with his dad.  I would like to call myself the creative brains behind the project :)  But really, I had help with that too.  Here are the pics from start to finish.

Junk room.

This is actually a little cleaned up from before. 

Finally painting over the previous owner's nursery 7 months after we moved in.


Lexi has grown fond of laying down right in front of sister's crib. 

Starting to organize. 
Finished!  Just need some photos of baby girl for the frames.

Homemade bookshelf.  And the dress hanging in the frame is mine from when I was a baby.


Bow holder made by my friend Kelly.  Framed "A" made by Whitney


Close up of the bookshelf.  How beautiful is it?!
2 more weeks.  2 more LONG weeks of work. I keep saying to myself, "I think I can, I think I can."  I've been having contractions the last week or so.  They will be regular for about 30-45 minutes (at 1 hour we're supposed to head to the hospital), but as soon as M and I start prepping to go, they stop :)  Avery is fickle.  If she does not come before May 7th (my due date), we will go into the hospital the night of the 7th and induce on the 8th.  I am/was NOT a fan of induction, but my doctor is leaving to go out of town on the 9th for a week and half, and I didn't want a random doc delivering her (which I know can happen regardless if she comes on a weekend or a night when he's not on call).  Praying that she decides to come on her own beforehand!

What a beautiful room for a very special young girl.
