Working on the nursery

Now that I am starting to feel better and in hopes of getting our referral sometime this year, I have started working on the nursery again. I have added lots of pictures to the Nursery in Progress link located in the side bar and I have also made a video of pictures, (practicing for the future) starting at the doorway of the nursery and moving around the room.
When I look around the nursery, I can't help but think of all our wonderful friends and my secret pals, whose gifts seem to be in every corner. Most recently we received a Fabulous hand made Raggedy Ann and a beautiful, soft pink knit blanket with hearts, both from dear friends, Pat and Gary. We love them both, thank you so much for thinking of us! My Mom also made an adorable padded book for Baby S, which I know she'll love!

The canvas at the entrance to the room was painted by a wonderful artist in Florida, named Elaine. She was fabulous to work with and the results, Wow! If you are looking for something custom, contact her, she was the best! The canvas is 7 1/2 feet long by 5 feet high so to Baby S, it's just going to seem huge. Gosh, I sure hope she isn't afraid of animals otherwise I'll be in trouble!

  15. Wow. It is really shaping up! With one more baby shower or three, you should be completely done. I think it was a great idea to start working on the video. This allows you to make your mistakes now and be more proficient when you are under the gun so to speak. Way to plan ahead!

    Her room is beautiful Lisa. So Sweet. Baby S will love it! The video and lullaby are awesome. I sing that to Max and Mia every night. I have been doing so since Max was newborn and he still likes it at 8!
