Nursery

I think the nursery is pretty much done, just need a baby now :) I searched a long time for a cute theme for the nursery and I am not a fan of the color brown, and I swear everything baby girl is pink and brown! I already had the purprle rug, curtains, and paint from my room in Winona last year, so I went to JoAnn and found the purple and green fabric for the valence and went from there.

Thanks to my dad for all of the painting!

The changing table from a consignment sale and repainted by my dad. The monkey pictures I found on Etsy and HAD to have them. Love them!! My dad picked up the letters last week and painted them to match as well.

I had already repainted the dresser drawers purple for my room last year, so my dad just repainted the white to match the crib and make it new. I knew that the dresser was the same one my mom used when I was a baby, but my grandma was over and said she got it from a neighbor when her and my grandpa got married (51 years ago)! We got the crib from my Grandma and she sanded it and my dad was able to paint it white. Love it! My aunt Lynn made the valence with the fabric I picked out and my mom made the crib skirt. Obviously I am very lucky to have such a crafty family!

I love love love this quote and was looking for a creative way to put it somewhere in the room. I ran into a cute framed picture on Etsy, but the lady wanted 35 dollars for it! I took hers as an inspiration and an hour on Photoshop later I came up with this.

Love the banner from my baby shower that my cousin Erin made!

Also love the "poms" that my cousin found on Etsy. The colors match perfectly!! Found the glider on Craigslist but it was a denim color so my grandma reupholstered it to match with the room.

Shower #3!

Last Saturday I had a baby shower thrown by my family. Everything was soooo cute and it was a lot of fun! I have family gatherings a lot with my family, but it was fun to just have all the girls! A big thank you to my Aunt Penny for hosting the party at her house, to my cousin Erin for all of her fabulous decorations, and my grandma for the adorable baby cake :)

Still trying to figure out the perfect place to hang my new decorations in the nursery!

So thankful to have such a loving and supportive family. Morgan will be one spoiled little girl :)

Pumpkin Carving

Last week I spent a couple nights in Mankato visiting friends from high school. It was fun just hanging out.  Lauren and Brianna both didn't have class Wednesday so we went out for a nummy lunch and decided to carve pumpkins!

I forgot to take pictures of all of us with our pumpkins. I never got around to carving the other one, just some white spray paint...  

Also while in Mankato I found my new favorite store! We stopped at Hobby Lobby to get some spray paint for the pumpkins, but I got side tracked down the scrapbooking aisle, can't resist 50% off signs! Can't wait for baby to get here so I can start my new project!
