Zoey's Nursery

After we moved in, the first thing I just had to do was to get Miss Zoey's room ready before she arrived. Brian and his friend put together the crib, Mom and Hallie helped me organize all her stuff, and my Dad helped me hang her things on the walls. I love the way it turned out and couldn't be more excited to bring our sweet girl home to her very own room! 


Putting together the crib!


Laying out where we want everything.


Rhys decorating his "house" while we were busy working! 


Zoey's toy box was a piece I found at the furniture auction in Palestine and painted.  Then I hung a deer, moose, and bear silhouette's I made with extra fabric and framed.



I hung her "lil deer" banner from her shower over the closet doors


I painted arrows and hun them above a little book shelf I got at an auction with the wardrobe. Both were painted. 


Her crib, I made all the bedding, and the deer head with flowers for antlers that Kiki made. 


Dad sitting in the glider, and the changing table/dresser. I also found all the mirrors at resale and junk stores and painted them to match the room. 


We finally hung curtains and were finished with Zoey's nursery. 




This has nothing to do with the nursery but, look at the cute door hanger Brian's mom made for us! 



Moving Day

After 6-7 months of building, the big day was finally here!!! I was 9 months pregnant, and scheduled to be induced the next week, but we made it and got to move into our home. There are still a few things that need to be done before the house is completly finished, but we love our house and are so excited to be all moved in!


Brian installed door knobs on all the doors a few days before we moved in. Lola was a great helper!



One of the new things we wanted to have right away- a big table for the dining area. 


We also had to get new living room furniture. My one couch wasn't going to make the cut for this big open area! 


The view from the back door. 


our island. 


Brian and his dad poured the concrete countertops, we still needed to seal them, so they were covered in plastic and taped off for the fist week we were home. 


This was my "spot" while the boys moved us in. I was impressed that my ancles weren't swoellen and I could still wear tennis shoes! The count down was 6 days until Zoey!
