Thank You Mom and Dad

I have the worlds greatest parents and just want to give a big Thanks to them. First of all to my dad for putting in your time and effort to provide me with a beautiful nursery to put my new baby girl in and secondly to my mom who bought this beautiful changing table and matching crib as our baby gift. We had a natural color crib and changing table and I really wanted a cherry one and Jason told me "no way" because we already had one so my mom decided to buy them as our baby gift because Jason could not get mad at her.
I am so grateful for parents like you not just because you help us but because you show us so much unconditional love. Words can not express how much love and gratitude we have for you. My children tell me all the time that I am the best mom in the world and I have to say that I learned it from you.
Thank You and I love You



Finished Product

The closet without the doors on it
I had this rocker when Hailee was a baby and it had blue backing that was kind of hard and uncomfortable so I bought soem pink fleece and made new cushions and now it not only looks cute it is soft and squishy
One of the window valances, they match the bedding
I bought some plin picture frames and painted them my two pink colors and then I glued some painted wood letters on them and then I added some pink and brown ribbon on them. I out pictures of the kids giving my belly some lovin and I am in love with the effect it had on the room

We went with a wood laminate and it looks really good
The flooring we put in
Carter "helping"

This is the wall (on the right) that was half plaster and half drywall. Its amazing you would never be able to tell.

This is the color we painted. I wanted pink walls with chocolate accessories but Jason vetoed it so we compromised on this color with lots of pink accessories and it turned out just beautiful


October 2nd

This wall is half plaster and half drywall. They were taking something off and the plaster and lath on part of the wall just fell of so they just put up some drywall.
The celing where the shower was after putting up drywall
The wall where there was the most wallpaper after it was wallpaper free and primed
We have this fascination with Hunter fans. They are awesome and make this wonderfully soothing whistle as it moves so we had to get one for her room.
Newly built closet
New entry. The opening to the bathroom was in our room so they closed off the opening in our room and gave Jason his own little closet which is an added bonus becuase his clothes are very disorganized and it drives me nuts and now it doesnt affect me anymore so he can make all the mess he wants. There was a little storage closet in the hallway which they disassembled and made the entry to her room right across from Hailee's. Like I said they did lots of much appreciated work.

Project Nursery September 25

We (by we I mean my wonderful dad and husband) took out a big master bathroom for the nursery. There was a lot of work involved. These pcitures do not justice the amount of work they put in. Besides the normal taking out of a shower, toilet, and vanity, when they took out the shower they discovered a narrow staircase that once led to the living room. We think it was a stircase where the servants lived a long time ago, once again a testiment to the age of our house. Because of that they had to completely rebuild the floor. Thank goodness my dad knows everything because if it were up to Jason and I she would not have a room. They boys didnt get any pictures of it but they said it was really neat and weird all at the same time, they ran into alot of unexpected issues like this. The floor that they had to completely rebuild
Definate evidence to the age of our house, there were a lot of diferent wallpaper layers
