Big Boy Legos
We have our first piece of furniture put together for the nursery!
Many have asked about what our nursery looks like so far and to be honest, we do not have it completely set up…yet…
Back in April, I decided to paint our spare room a light blue. Little did we know in May, that God would bless us with the ability to have our own children! I decided that since we do not own the house, that I will just keep it this light blue and work with that color. That is why we have chosen to do a navy and bright pink themed room, which allows for versatility, but also lets us keep the walls a light blue. We have registered at Target, so if you want to get an idea of what the room might look like color-wise, you can get a glimpse there!
This past week we received our crib and decided to just get to it and set it up! We ordered it online from Wayfair, but you can also get it from Toys R Us and Walmart. It is a Dream On Me 4-in-1 convertible crib so that we do not have to buy a different bed later. That is when my simplifying self kicks in – buy once!
We were looking forward to doing this TOGETHER as this is something we only dreamed of doing! We had a lot fun doing it, while Dan offered MANY laughs as always! I kept telling him that he is so good at building things and his comment was “playing with legos as a kid, paid off!” Hey, whatever it takes, right? And as he often says, “work smarter, not harder”!
I tried my hand with a few pieces…really it was simple to put together as it took us maybe a half hour. Plus, we love it! It is an espresso color, so a darker wood. Can’t wait to put our baby girl in there!
Boy, by the looks of that belly, I realize it looks like she could be in there soon! She might take up the length of that whole bed the day she is born 🙂
The masterpiece!
Where our baby girl is going to be spending countless hours, sleeping the night away!
We have also ordered a dresser so that is the next item to come in! We have our stroller as well, which once we get that set up, I will try to remember to take some pics of it.
We also have a few clothing items hanging in our closet, which just gets us all the more excited to dress her! Our spare room is now named “the nursery” – what joy that brings to be able to call it that!
Only a couple more months!
