Nursery Sneak Peak

Molly's due date is getting so close!  I am 37 weeks and officially considered "full term" even though her due date isn't for another three weeks.  This week is spring break and we are kicking in high gear.  Anything and everything we have been putting off around here that needs to be done before Molly's due date is getting done this week.  There's a pretty lengthy list!  My main priority is to put the final touches on her room.  I could never have imagined that her nursery would have come together so perfectly!  That being said I want to give you some before pictures and a small sneak peak of what's to come!  We started on the nursery about a week before Christmas.  These pictures aren't the best quality since they were taken on my phone before my camera was unpacked from the move.

This was my room in high school and yes, I painted those flowers on the wall.

The gun case was not mine for the record...my room was being used for temporary storage.

Paint samples.  We went with the one on the far right.

Goodbye flowers, hello Molly!

I wasn't allowed to do any of the actual painting.  But my parents were more than happy to do it all!
Thank you!!


On Christmas, my parents surprised me with all of her furniture.  It was the best Christmas gift ever!
The bedding, my mom and I found at a consignment store a few months before.  The green curtains I have had since high school and have always loved them.  I always said that I would put them in my daughters room one day so I was happy that they actually match her bedding!



I made these little pictures and I just love them.  No, they're not perfect but that's okay with me.

These were some of the shower decorations Lauren made that I mentioned earlier.

And that is all of the nursery pictures I can share right now but I promise that I will post the final pictures once the room is finished this week!  Again, I apologize for the quality of these pictures.  They were taken on my phone.  The new pictures will be taken on my nice camera with proper lighting so you will hopefully be able to really see what the room looks like!

On a side note, I had maternity pictures taken this weekend!  I was lucky that my friend Brandy had a friend who is working on her portfolio in hopes of growing her business and she was willing to do them for free!  We had a lot of fun at the park and she had some very creative ideas.  I can't wait to see how they came out.  I will post those as soon as I get them, however, it could be a couple weeks and Molly could very well be born by then!  

Now, how about a few random pictures from this weekend that made me happy?  

Yes, I was happy to do laundry.  This has to be the cutest pile of laundry ever and I might as well enjoy it while I can.

Molly's Aunt Taylor loves her so much!

My good friend from high school, Randi, came to visit for her baby shower.  Her little boy is due just after Molly.  They are giving high fives from the womb.

These are the burp cloths my mom and I made for Randi's shower.  Mom did most of the work because we were running out of time but I just love how they turned out!

This is a video of Molly kicking and moving around.  I was holding my breath so all of he movement is her!
For some reason, after I push play, I also have to click on the progress bar before it starts playing.  It does play I promise!
