Nursery Before........





Today we finished up the registry process and registered at Target. Since the baby section is much smaller and we had the majority of things done at Babies R Us, Target was a BREEZE! After grocery shopping we went home and booked our "Babymoon" to San Antonio from April 9th - 12th. I can't wait to go relax and spend some quality time with my hubby! Well - the day was not over with this - we went ahead and ordered all the baby furniture - crib, 5 drawer dresser, dresser/changing table, and a bookcase. All the pieces except the bookcase are back ordered until April 5th!! Once that was finished Justin got all the tape and paint drops ready for the nursery....
As expected Justin is anxious to work on the nursery! We wanted to take before, during, and after pictures of working on the nursery so here are the before pictures. (more like before with some progress) We started to put down the paint drops so that we can paint as vigorously as we want and not get it everywhere on the carpet! Ok ok ok - so we won't paint that crazy but you know, accidents happen and why not avoid a mess?
Over the next week or so we will start taping around the trim, little by little, so that we do a good job and make sure that the lines are straight.
Once the taping is finished we should have a piece of the crib bedding in hand to go match paint to. We plan to do an accent wall in the darker blue where the crib will be and then light blue for the rest of the walls.

Here is the bedding will are going with and the furniture pieces.......
the crib will be coffee colored like the other pieces of furniture......



I can't wait to see the nursery all set up for our little man to come home to!!!
