Starting the nursery!

Well, I will be 27 weeks in a few days! Today I am cleaning out the soon to be nursery, which means I have to sort through all of Marks clothes. This is quite the task, as he has so many clothes!!! lol. He was using the closet and dressers in the room for all his stuff, but now he is being booted out- which means I have to share my closet and dresser...lol. Anyways, I have been dreading this part, but it must be done! I am actually almost done and took a quick break.  Later Mike and I are going to go get the paint, and get started on the room! We are going to paint the room a light aqau, and put up this beadboard wallpaper on the bottom part.  Mark really wants butterflies and I really like birds, so I think we are going to incorporate both into the room. Next we need some carpet then we will be able to set up the crib and dresser/changing table.  Then onto rugs, drapes, lamps, and wall decor. Nurseries are so much fun to decorate and prepare.  I can't wait to start washing all her little clothes and putting them in her dresser! OH! And the baby shower is in a few weeks, which means we need plenty of space for all the new fun things for baby! Mark and I always marvel at how much space a tiny little baby can take up!! :)

Here is a link to the Beadboard wallpaper!.  We got ours at Lowes, for about $20.00 a roll. Not sure how many rolls we will need, but I am guessing about 2-3.   Then we have to trim it with the wood trim when we are finished. I am excited to get this project started. I will keep you all updated!!
