Nursery Progress

Today I wanted to share my recent progress on the baby room! This is all very exciting to me, since this has been "my project" for the past couple of months. My brother-in-law came over and replaced the trim and painted the baby room the colors we picked out: Benjamin Moore's "Milkyway" and "Sunrise". He also painted a changing table I bought off of Craigslist for $40. The paint and trim really freshened up the space!

Before:

After:

Once painting was complete I was able to assemble the crib, put the bedding together, and bring up the glider.  The glider is a Dutailier glider, which my friend Jen highly recommended, the crib a Babyletto Hudson, and the bedding and rug are sale items from  The Land of Nod, my favorite baby store at the moment. My husband and I were so thrilled with the results that we each took turns sitting in the glider and admiring the room.


Baby Update:

Week: 30
Baby Size: 17 inches long and 3 lbs
Changes for Mommy: 
  • Walking a LOT slower in the airports, takes awhile to get my momentum going with the added weight.  
  • Kicking during swim practice is more challenging, but feels good as it loosens up my tight hip muscles.  
  • Get to feel baby kick almost ALL the time! He's quite a little mover, I think we're going to have our hands full! :)
This weekend we're taking our hospital's Childbirth Class, should be interesting! 

Have a great weekend everyone. :)
