Nursery Progress

Ever since we moved to VA, I have been going crazy trying to get everything set up in the nursery for when little miss Carolina decides to join us!

I must say that I am in love with her crib bedding. I made everything myself so I am pretty proud of myself for how it has turned out so far. I am still working on the crib bumper but I know it is going to look perfect in there!

The letters I plan on hanging over her bed are laying her crib, I am just waiting to hang them. Also the blanket to the right is a blanket I made for her car seat. he blanket hanging on the front of the crib is a quilt I made to match her bedding, it is so cute!!

Nathan finally got her dresser put together and I m still working on packing it full with blankets, diapers and clothes!

The left drawer is little knick knack stuff... Such as bibs, hats, mittens, and socks! The big letter "C" is going to be hanging on the outside of her room door, facing the hallway. I plan on making a mesh wreath and to put the "C" in the middle of it. We also still need to get a changing pad to go on top of the dresser, we should be getting the pad and stuff to make the wreath this week so I plan on posting more pictures once we are done!

We are installing the car seat tomorrow so I promise to get some more pictures posted once that is put together!

I have some letters that I need to get hung up in her room to go over her crib but I am needing to get a curtain rod first. I also need to add the curtains in her room, which I have yet to do! I will be sure to post pictures of those once they are up as well!

  

This is the glider that my great mother gave me that has been in the family for like 30 years. I am in the process of reupholstering it. I currently have the back piece done but now I am working on the bottom cushion. I am so excited to see it when it is done! There is also a little end table next to the glider that my great great grandmother gave my mother when she was younger , it has been in the family for over 70 years! Also as you can tell I have my hospital bag, boppy pillow and accessories ready to go to the hospital for our little girl to make her big arrival!

I just hung up the wire hanger today and I love it! More info on it below...

This is the picture frame I had found awhile ago. It was black but I decided to paint it a turquoise blue (I know this picture makes it look darker) and I put her initials as a monogram in the middle. I LOVE IT!

This is a wire hanger I found at Ikea the other day when Nathan and I had lunch with his cousin and wife. They are also expecting a little girl, only a month behind me on the due date! I am so excited how this turned out. it is perfect for hanger all of her headbands so they aren't taking up so much room else where in the nursery, but I need a LOT more clips for the rest of her headbands to go up. I am thinking of hanging another underneath it as well so I can hang all of her little hats and bibs up too.

On the little wall between the door to her room and closet door I hung the bow holder I made... I still thinks I need to make little ones for each side. I plan on this little girl having TONS of hair bows!!

Her closet is no way near as packed as I thought it would be but I guess I need to change that and start buying more clothes to go in it. I hadn't bought much clothes due to not knowing how big she is going to be when she is born. I don't want to buy tons of clothes if she is going to be small and her not able to wear anything and have to go out and buy smaller stuff for her.  The outfit hanging on the door to the right is the outfit I wore home from the hospital 20 years ago. Now I am going to bring her home in the same outfit!

There aren't many diapers up there due to the fact that I decided to go with cloth diapers. I do have a few boxes of disposables but I am gonna give the cloth a try!

 All of her clothes organized by size and even by what type they are. (like onesies, sleepers, etc...) I got this shelf from Lowes and I love how perfect it goes in her closet, it is so cute in there with the bins. They are full of blankets, socks, shoes, toys, diapers, and even little bloomers and leggings for her to wear! ;)

 We still have some wooden letters that spell out her name that I got from Hobby Lobby awhile ago, they were white but I just had to paint them pink! I still have to hang up those over her crib and to get a few more picture frames here and there but it is finally coming together. If she came tonight I would feel a little better about her coming home!

Pardon all of the horrible looking pictures that are all dark and splotchy. It is 9pm and the flash on my phone just washes it out even more. I promise to post more and better pictures when we are totally done.

Have a WONDERFUL New Years everyone!!!
