Making progress

We made some progress on the nursery this weekend! We got the call that our crib has arrived last week and it put us both in panic mode.....we don't have that much longer to get things ready! We took off for Portland as soon as I got off work on Friday and did some shopping/looking. Saturday we woke up, went for breakfast and got busy on house projects. Mom and I washed windows inside and out (thanks, mom!) and Joe and dad tapped the nursery and got it ready for priming and painting. It's amazing how much faster things get done when there's a team!

While the primer was drying we took a break and went golfing. It was so much fun! My first time and I loved it. We played 18 holes---it was the par 3 course but still---I felt pretty good about it! Beginners luck? Perhaps. Can't wait to go again though! After golf we went for dinner and then Joe and I got busy on the room again. We have a vision for the room so it's just a matter of finding the right stuff and putting it together. Here is the work in progress:
Still have a lot of touch up to do. We decided to leave one wall the brown color that it was when this room was our office. Can't wait to see it really start coming together. I feel less stressed now that we've at least got the painting done. Bring on the crib, changing table, rocking chair and all the adorable things we've found at Etsy.com---we're getting ready for your arrival, baby!
