Nursery Update

The past couple weeks have been crazy busy trying to get things ready for little Miss Madison. It's far from finished, but I wanted to post some sneak peak pictures and video of the nursery, so ya'll can see a few of the projects we have been working on.

We have the perfect bedroom in our home for the nursery. Madison's room actually adjoins our master bedroom. You also can't tell from the pictures, but she has an nice big walk-in closet for storage. (If she's like her Mama, she will fill it with SHOES!) Rob painted all the trim white and the walls are a perfect pale yellow.

We went with white furniture that will grow in different stages with her. He bed will convert to a toddler bed, then to a double bed when she's ready. Rob also had the great idea to not use a changing table, but instead, buy an unfinished dresser from the Orange Crate and paint it. Don't worry, we used all non-toxic paint.

The rocker is the only non-white piece in the room. but it was a "MUST-HAVE" for Rob. It's a Dutalier glider and ottoman that we originally found months ago at Babies-R-Us. Little did we know then how popular they were or that we would be driving to Atlanta, the one store in the entire South East that had the rocker in stock! I'm sure it will be worth it when we're awake for those 2am feedings! It was also very important to Rob that Madison have the print "Jesus and the Lamb" by Katherine Brown. It was in Jackson's nursery too.

Accents for the room included a new chandelier from the Pottery Barn and white Chinese paper lanterns hung over the bed. I haven't done much in the way of wall decor yet, because I want to leave plenty of room for pictures. We've chosen to use Megan Forehand as our maternity, newborn and 6-month photographer. (More on her and the photos to come!)
