It's getting there

The last few days we've been pretty busy with one thing and one thing only (hence the lack of blogging):

the nursery. 

Yes, finally!

With Micha we had everything done and ready by the time I was 35 weeks along, but this time around we were both suffering from second child procrastination plus an active toddler who is a master at keeping us busy!

But last weekend we had a long weekend, and decided now was the time to get things done! 

I mean, I'm only 37 weeks pregnant... Eek!

We made an Ikea run and bought this drawer chest, which will be painted yellow, like this one.

We wallpapered and painted and sanded and then painted again. 

We taped off the ceiling to paint stripes, like these.

I made a start at making a name banner and other decorations for the little guys room.

I collected a few free printables, like this cute one.

The nursery is still far from ready, but it's definitely getting there!

This weekend we have another long weekend, 

so I'm hoping we'll be able to get at least all the big things done. 

Hopefully I'll have some better pictures to share with you then!

I can't wait to finally start decorating and putting little clothes away in drawers. 

And then, when that's all done, all I'll have to do is wait for this little baby to arrive!

Love, Maria
