3D ultrasound,crib bedding and nursery

Wow this past week has been pretty eventful.  Baby girls crib, dresser and nigh stand arrived!!!  Yay I finally pick one out.  I am still waiting on Nathan to finish painting the nursery before assembly, he should have it finished today.  I cannot afford paint on the new furniture.  I will definitely post pictures once it is assembled.  Another thing that arrived this week was the huge wall decal that will become the accent wall in the nursery.  I have forgotten to tell you that the nursery is a forest theme.  So the decal is white birch trees that have no leaves with some birds and two big bucks(male deer). It is impressive in size.  There are 8 or nine trees that are 8 feet tall and then the birds and the deer.  I do believe it will take Nathan and his dad over 2 hours to place.  Before they can place the decals they have to wait two weeks for the paint to cure and set.  The paint for the room is called antique.  It is a grey blue color.  We did one wall darker than the rest since there is going to be so much white with the decal so it should hopefully not make the room feel too small.  Then we lightened the paint by 50% for the other three walls.  I really wish I could paint but the fumes are not good for pregnant women.

I did clean out the office as well. Obviously with the help of Nathan.






Also over the weekend I successfully made the crib bumper for her bed.  It took a long time to sew and I was very nervous because the fabric was special ordered.  I had to be very carful while cutting because I could not run to the fabric store to get more if I messed up.  I did mess up on one panel while cutting it out, thankfully I was able to use that fabric for one side of the crib ties.  Thankfully I had only cut two out.  After I realized the measurements were off i then had to measure 10 times before cutting so there would be no wasted fabric.  I did make an error when I bought the accent fabric.  Being the blond that I am I did not read as to how much I would need for the crib ties and did not get enough.  Thankfully between the leftover snow camo and the accent fabric I had enough to make the ties.

Here is an up close picture of the fabric.  It is Realtree Snow Camo.

 Lastly this weekend I got to watch baby girl move around on a 3D-4D ultrasound.  I one needed the extra conformation she was and is a girl.  I don't do well with surprises, and I really wanted to see her.  I had a 3D done with Alexis and loved it so now the wait is on.  58 days and counting!!!!

P.S. I do believe this is called nesting :)
