Baby’s Nursery

This last weekend we finally finished up everything in the nursery.  I am so happy with how it turned out. 

Here is what it looked like before.

Johnny was so sweet and he painted and fixed anything and everything that I requested. 

Here he is setting up the crib. 

Here is the finished room.

I already blogged about the awesome dresser that he painted for baby. 

We have been collecting kids books ever since we started trying to have a baby, so he has plenty of books to get him started.

A few decorations.

We bought him these rabbit moccasins in Alaska this summer.

These were Johnny’s marbles when he was little.

I got this old matchbox from my Great Grandma years ago. 

Mom gave me the rocking chair from her store. 

I saw this vinyl a few years ago and bookmarked the page in case I ever had a baby.  It was supposed to go right on the wall but we wanted to be able to take it with us when we move so we put it on canvas.  John painted the canvas to match the blue walls and the vinyl went on great.  I really love how it turned out.

My mom made the blanket for his crib.  She said I better appreciate it because it was not only her first attempt, but her last.  No more homemade blankets from her.  I love how it turned out, it is perfect and just what I wanted.

I am obsessed with looking at the little things hanging in his closet. 

I have a picture of me when I was a baby playing with same toy.  It chimes when you roll it around. 

This owl was one of the very first toys we bought for him after we found out we were having a boy.  I LOVE retro owls.

Here is Tiny Baby’s cradle that is in our room.  I have him some adorable bedding coming for it.  It should be here sometime this week I hope.  I will blog about it when I get it.  I love his cradle.  I always knew that I wanted a classic looking cradle for him to sleep in while he was tiny and I found this at Target.  The moose we got him in Alaska.
