The finished Nursery

Here is a little reminder of what this room once looked like. It was awhile ago, but it did look like this.

 And here is the after!

 I Love the dog painting, mainly because my great grandmother painted it. I have had it for years, and haven't really had the right place for it, but I think it goes well in a baby boys room. And I love using and reusing old things, and giving them new life.

I can't seem to find the picture I took of the cute quilt my mom is making. But I will post pictures as soon as I take another! I LOVE it, and it really ties all the colors together nicely.

 Remember THESE guys? Well,since then, I have made 2 more, then this little guy joined the group to make a total of 8. And in a few short weeks, I will be needing to make 1 more! I have made them for all my children, and all my neices and nephews. It's kind of just a fun little quirky monkey that they can play with till it falls apart, or just keep it forever, but each is handstitched with a heart and my name on the bum, so they know who it's from. It's just a fun think I like to do!

 Sorry little guy, but mommy had to take over your closet, so you won't be able to hang up all your dresses! J/K, I am glad this is a boys room, since their clothes don't require hanging up. And the few that do can find a home in his sisters closet next door.

 I know it is a little early for this, but I like to plan ahead, and since I was getting everything else out to clean and get ready, I went ahead and set up the bassinet as well. My babies usually only use the bassinet for a few short weeks, but we'll see how it goes this time. He may not be as grand of a sleeper as they were (sleeping 6 hours straight while nursing by 3 weeks old), but I am hoping he follows suit. And if that is the case, he will be in his own room, in his crib.
