Nursery: Complete

We did it! We actually have a space ready for the baby. Nothing like pushing time limits in our house.

I ended up not making the bedding like I'd originally thought I would. We found this darling bedding on eBay for $40 (for the entire set, mind you) that was brand new, in it's packaging. At first I wasn't sure, but the sued-ey (is that a word?) feel of the material and the coloring were a perfect fit for a cowboy room. On the shelf are some stars I had ordered awhile back from Shannon, a "Cowboy Up" block that Karen made for the babe and a "Howdy" sign I found - at Reams of all places - for under $4. Authentic rope and hat hung on either side (from Beau's mission).



This is the rocker that we had for each of the girls, only this time I've covered it w/ brown cordoroy. The blanket is from the bedding set - just have it draped there for now.



Quick shot of the changing pad cover (also brown cord) and message board that I made (both of them). We'll be getting a rope letter name made as soon as we decide who this kid is. :) That'll go right above the board.



The oh-so-cute room decorations given to us by Jami and Lisa. These are hanging right above the closet doors.



And a few other souvineers from Beau's Texas mission. He's so happy.





Now that I'm feeling more prepared and loving how this room turned out, I'm feeling less incapable of doing the boy thing. We've got some cute clothes, a darling room and two big sisters waiting in the wings. Just can't wait to meet this little guy now!
