Nursery Makeover!

We've finished one of the last steps before Baby C gets here: our bedroom/nursery! Thanks to my Dad and Donna for spending a few days last week helping pull it all together =) Photos and updates from our wonderful Baby Shower to come ASAP!

New wall color, wall of gray drapes, and a few additions to the bed.
CRIB! Mobile made by me, bumpers and skirt by Donna, shelving unit and TV a la Mark. 
My b-day/ x-mas present... gray glider! Glider, ottoman, and new wall canvases. 
Another look at the crib/ mobile. 
The whole room! (plus Eleanor... who has no idea what she's in for!) 
New dresser, wall shelves, lamp. (Future home of changing station. )

Gearing up for the end!

It's November?!?!? While I can hardly believe how time has flown by, November 1st means that it's time to shift into high gear and power through! I have exactly 5 weeks until we (hopefully) get to meet little Lady C, one week until I begin my new job, and 4 days until our baby shower, and 2 days until my Dad and Donna come to Chicago to help us finalize the "nursery" and prepare our apartment for a family of 3! 


All white bedding against the new grey paint. We love this look so much! The plan is to cover the window and the entire wall behind the bed with curtains (that I hope to find at IKEA!).
Another shot- trying to capture the colors more accurately, but the lighting is bad...
An updated baby bump! 35 weeks.

Happy November!
