22 Weeks


Isn't this Spring weather just delightful?

It inspired Andrew to grill up a nice steak dinner.

Even Milly is begging to go outside more often these days.


And we couldn't help but sit outside to enjoy the sunset in our backyard tonight - for about five minutes before we were off to Marble Slab. Hey, I got a BOGO coupon today and just couldn't restrain myself.

Even more exciting than this weather, though, is the fact that I have decided on the bedding and colors for the nursery. I've actually lost sleep, which is unheard of for me, over my excitement. I just keep thinking about all the little details that will make this room perfect.

Here is the bedding from Pottery Barn. Simple with the clean lines, a touch of whimsy with the polka dots, and beautiful colors without being too bold and bright. C'est parfait!

This chandelier is a must. I'm hoping my favorite thrift shopper might find a cheaper replica. Think you can find one Mama Ese?

I haven't seen this fabric in person but I'm thinking it might complement the colors of the bedding as a pillow for the glider. Still thinking about this one. The brown might not be dark enough.

I love this wall decal to place over the crib.

This fabric is so pretty it just has to go somewhere.

I love this print for the glider. Might be a bit too extravagant, but I'm just dreaming at this point.

Mom found this nursery picture that has given me some inspiration. I definitely want a canvas with Charlotte's monogram like the one in the upper right corner. I'm thinking I can design it myself.

I broke out the maternity capris and open-toed shoes today! Yippee! Makes me feel like we're getting closer and closer to July!

I was hoping you would like the wall mural. I love it! And the chandelier will be perfect. I love the fabrics you have picked out! I can't wait to see it all complete. The chair is a must. That bright fabric would look great on an ottoman!! This will be so much fun! Charlotte will love it.
