I finished the Nursery! The curtains are hung, and embellished with the owls I cut at Bethany’s, and sewed together to hang. The quilt came from Etsy seller and is beautifully hand made. Bethany made the cutest triple canvas set with owls, and Tim has installed a shelf, where the home made owl stuffie sits next to the owl story books. The mobile has been done for quite some time. I have replaced the changing cover with a subtle polka dot in the coordinating colors. We sat in about 40 chairs, and finally decided on the espresso glider and ottoman combo seen here. (In the process found our Christmas presents to each other at Lazy boy….mmmmm) A new boppy cover, and a back up diaper bag all coordinate with the room. I just adore how it all came together.
I have been nesting of course, and busily so. On top of all the moving. I caught up with my scrapbooking, each kid has an up to date digital scrapbook (ready to be ordered when I can afford it). Crossing that off my List. The Girls birthdays went off without a hitch.
I ordered and have received a Big sister shirt for Charlotte. I think it will be so cute on her holding her new baby brother. We have a pretty close to final plan on child care while I am in the hospital too. The announcements/party invites are even ready and waiting for a photo and a name for the new baby (the non personalized photo version below – too cute).
I have made, and frozen 17 meals, and accurately made both a Menu, and a cookbook of instructions.
I have scheduled cleaning help in May, June and July (thanks to friends!).
My bag for the hospital is packed and set aside.
The Master Bedroom and Bathroom is stocked and ready for recovery time.
The house is fully unpacked and gorgeous…
I have to finish knitting my socks,
but my beautiful blanket is done!
