Less than 2 months ago the nursery looked like this when we first moved in. Now most of the house is unpacked and ready for Baby 2’s arrival. There are a few small projects to be completed in the nursery but nothing that couldn’t be done in a few hours if we just set our minds to it. Hopefully, this weekend will yield the completion of the nursery.
As you can see everything is set up and all the boxes are unpacked we just have to find homes for the last few items.
The crib was Jude’s that I bought second hand, I like that it’s white. (I still need some artwork above the crib.) Also, there is no overhead light in this room so we are hanging a fun pendant light in that corner.
The dresser we found on Craigslist. The changing pad was a yard sale find (cover and all) The owl prints are actually framed coasters from Kerry Beary‘s Etsy Shop.
This is another Craigslist find. I really wanted a glider when I had jude but didn’t have the room or budget for one. I got this one used, only $20 and it perfectly matches everything.
I have some green black out shades that used to be in Jude’s room that perfectly match our color scheme. I just need to get Joe to hang them.
This is the last area that has packed boxes. Mostly they are pictures that need to be hung elsewhere in the house or just put in the attic. I’m hoping to put a small bookshelf in that space. The two prints on the wall is this and this from carambatack etsy shop.
Hopefully, after this weekend the room will be completed and I will post updated pictures. So close….

The test results from my blood-work last week came back and almost everything is normal. The midwife said my hemoglobin levels have been progressively dropping and suggested I start taking an iron supplement. In addition to the iron supplement I’m trying to be more faithful in taking my prenatal vitamins (I suck at taking a…
Abel’s birth went nothing like I expected. I guess that’s generally how births happen. My other 3 boys were born on the weekend, in the wee hours of the morning. Abel was born on a Tuesday night. I was expecting a quick and intense labor but instead had a drawn out labor that had no…
When Jude was born Joe had just started a new job and was only able to take off 3 days from work. It was pretty hard being stuck at home alone especially since I was stuck in bed for several days due to health reasons. However, when the baby napped I could nap, shower or…
Today I am 39 weeks pregnant which means this baby could make his big debut any day now. We are getting things ready for his arrival and for the first time I’m packing a hospital bag. After having 2 home births I was pretty clueless as to what I should pack in my bag. I…
As of today I’m 31 weeks pregnant with baby 4. Even though this is my 4th pregnancy nothing about a pregnancy is boring. Each time I’ve been pregnant I am amazed at this creation of new life that is forming within my body and how the female body is designed to transform during this journey….
25 Weeks So we finally schedule our first ultrasound. The big day is Thursday, March 3rd. WooHoo! We still haven’t decided yet if we want to know the sex of the baby. Well, let me clarify. Joe hasn’t decided if he wants to find out the sex of the baby. If he says yes then…
