Nightly Olympics/Nursery

After the first year of marriage Chris brought to my attention that we should have invested in a King size bed and not a Queen size bed. For the last 5 years, I have brought to his attention that our room isn't big enough for a King size, and that a Queen works just fine. After 4 months of "The Boppy" being jammed into his back at night, me tossing and turning, and yes, even an elbow or two in the face, I finally gave in and let him have his King size bed. So, I took a picture of my big 35 week belly in front of the bed just so I can explain the first part of the title of my Blog Post.

I found a really fun bedroom set that I loved, but after the boxsprings and mattress were delivered and we got everything assembled, I discovered that the bed is up to my belly button. Have you ever watched a toddler try to climb up onto a couch, it looks so akward, and in your mind you are thinking, "You can do it, just keep trying." That's pretty much the visual you should have with me trying to climb into bed every night. Not every first attempt is successful and I have even wondered if I should invest in a stepstool to get me through the next few weeks. And, as if it isn't akward enough trying to climb into bed at night, you should see me at 5:30 in the morning trying to get in/out of it in the dark for a potty run. Honestly! But, I must say that I have slept like an angel on that pillow top piece of heaven the last 2 weeks, why didn't my husband try to talk me into this sooner (LOL)!!!

And, ask me if I am excited???!!! The nursery is F-I-N-A-L-L-Y DONE! Waaahoooo!!! Yesterday my mother in law and I got the curtains sewn and Chris hung them up, and the room is finally complete......okay, maybe not complete until the babe arrives ;O)

Here are some pictures. I had soooo much fun putting this room together!!

Fun little daisy's on the frame, now it just needs some cute pictures in it (that will be your job Ashley!!!)


The picture didn't take that great, but I found this really fun ceramic plate and plate holder at Tai Pan, it's a really soft pink with antiqued corners. In case you think I was losing my mind and spelled the name incorrectly, we have had a slight adjustment with the name. Rather than spell "Ava" the traditional American way, we are spelling it "Eva" the traditional Spanish way. It will still be pronounced "A v a"-did I lose anyone? I know, we are going to confuse everyone!!!



Chris still finds this bunny creepy!! I Love it!
I found these fun tassles at Hobby Lobby and sewed them onto the curtains (okay, everyone should be laughing hysterically, like I sew, I LOVE glue guns!!!!)

Isabella's room is almost done, just a few more fixes and I will post pictures of her new room.
