The nursery is DONE! We're ready to bring him home .... maybe we should wait a few weeks!
Andy has finished up all the painting and touch up work, and the colors are perfect! I cleaned all of Carter's old furniture (the changing table, bookcase, rocker and crib), disinfected it and scoured off all the residual spit up (let's hope #2 is a little better about NOT doing that!). The bedding has been laundered and is all snuggly fresh for him, and Carter and I sorted through her old toys for things he'd enjoy in his first few months (along with some things she still enjoys messing with!). The bottle warmer, peaceful CD's, and Diaper Genie are ready to accommodate; he's got a closet with diapers, wipers, and itty bitty clothes just waiting for him. We are ready!
But ... ya gotta wait, little Chuck Norris. Don't show up quite yet! We'll patiently await your arrival in October.

Doorway, near the changing table and from his corner out into our bathroom

The toy and book shelf and his closet

Changing table and crib

The sweet snuggle spot: books, toys, rocker and crib

A big boy crib, await its sleeper

My final project: his name. THIS is all you get until he arrives. He has a C somewhere in his name. I got the wooden letters, painted the sides and back wall brown, and covered each letter in coordinating paper to match his room. It turned out perfectly, and I can't wait to hang them ... but if we do, it'll spoil the surprise! So it's our final baby project, pending arrival.
