17 weeks and 3 days (part 2)

Did I mention to everyone that Finley will be here the morning of June 20th?

I guess there was something good that came from having a previous c-section - no labor this time!

Next week we're officially converting the catch all/office/playroom into the nursery. I'm so excited. It's about time that that room has an official title.

We agreed that after we found out the sex, we'd work on getting it started. This is going to involve painting, planning and purchasing; the 3 p's.

Payton has always had super girly rooms. Her room at our old house was gorgeous, absolutely gorgeous. I took a really long time planning it out.

It had chair railing (white), the top half was painted a pastel pink and the bottom was a light purple with seafoam green stripes. The ceiling was blue with white clouds. It was gorgeous.

Here's a photo of the bottom portion of the room:



It was super cute.

When we moved to this house, she got a girly light pink princess room (it was ghetto) which eventually turned into this:

(Under construction)

So for Finley, I want something that is in the complete opposite direction.

I know I want to paint the room the same color that's in a majority of our house (a tan/khaki color). I want her colors to be like a dark latte (think a little darker than a cup of latte - in the medium tan category) and a spa blue (not aqua, but an elegeant shiney 'darker-than-aqua' blue).

I'm branching out and making her bedding. I can't wait to start and never finish that process!

I suppose I'll update as the process begins :)
