pimp that nursery

well, this post is WAY overdue, so i apologize, but i've been a little preoccupied. let's back up to october 23… mom and alice faye came to visit and take care of some important business: preparing our room/nursery for the arrival of our peanut. also, oct 23 happens to be mom's bday, so naturally we did some celebrating :)


















on saturday we did some shopping in preparation for the overhaul of our drab bedroom/nursery. here are some before pics:

the armoire that ant refinished (before):


















this is where the crib will go:














bed & windows (before)














this is mom & alice slaving away to finish the room in 1 1/2 days:
























































And here is the beautiful room, all complete!

(there are some really cool lamps on these nightstands now, but i don't have pictures of them)














(notice the refinished armoire with new hardware… ant did a fantastic job!)
































































it was somewhat of a rush to get this done because i was 2 cm dialated and having mild contractions during all of this and we were wondering if i was going to go into labor the whole time. luckily peanut held off so we could get the project done :)

the room turned out great and it felt so good to get all of that done before peanut got here. THANK YOU MOM AND ALICE FOR MAKING IT HAPPEN! you guys are so great and we REALLY appreciate it!
