Nursery

I can almost guarantee there will be roughly 12 more updates about baby girls nursery before she joins us. It is something I am probably going to have the most fun with and look forward to doing more than anything (shopping for adorable baby girl dresses is a close second). 

Again, to make my point clear, I am staying as far away from a theme nursery as possible. Owl accents are perfect, but I do not want pink and purple owl bedding which is displayed in so many stores it makes my eyes hurt (no offense to anyone who has them, they are adorable, just not my taste for baby girl). Since Chris has Brew as his only male companion, we are keeping the girly-ness to a minimum. Light pinks and tans, maybe a soft yellow is the color scheme we are going with. 

Here is a picture of the furniture we picked out: 

The furniture is from a Babies R Us collection. What was great about the bed is that it turns into a 'toddler bed' and/or a full size bed as well. These are great pieces that baby girl will be able to grow into as she gets older. Looks like she won't have to share Brew's dog bed after all! Honestly, the bedding isn't that bad, but it is too girly for our taste, when we mean neutral, we mean very plain. 

Here are some owl accents we have gotten: 

The owl pillow on the left is from Susan Graver and was shown on QVC . My Grandma Annie (soon to be a great-grandma again!)  LOVES the QVC Network, and this was a great find! It will be perfect for the chair I am thinking of for baby girls nursery. We have a great nook with lots of light and I think it would just be the perfect place for a rocking chair. 

The owl mat on the right will be perfect for tummy time and hanging out in the living room while the Bruins are on, its like baby girl has her own dog bed! Its from Casa and was bought by one of my best girls from college, Diana. I am going to enlist her help in the near future for making some bows to go on head bands and hats for baby girl, she is the QUEEN of bows so she is the perfect one to help. 

We are going to use some nice framed photos to decorate baby girls nursery as well. Here is one photo I found from Etsy which I am absolutely ordering to hang up. How adorable?! I'm sure I could make something very similar on my own, but I just love this print so much, and you must give credit where credit is due, this girl did such a great job making it!
