Nursery - Stage 2 (Blinds & Furniture)

Things are becoming more real! We are now 9 weeks away from our due date and all of the little things are starting to come together as we continuously check things off of our to do list!

This morning we had a great appointment with our doctor and was able to see our little man again in 3D! He's growing right on track and is weighing in at 3 lbs 4 oz already. It's so exciting seeing him move around and check in on things - especially since I'm feeling him constantly now. 

Since my last post, we re-painted the nursery light gray (You can see the before pictures here - the room was painted a darker gray color). I'm a pretty plain person when it comes to designing rooms and decor - I like to stick with neutral colors with pops of color here and there - so our theme for the baby's nursery is light gray and white with pops of teal.


Next on our list (well, Eric's list) was to hang the new blind and assemble the glider that we've had in the original box for months. I clearly approved the hard work that took place! Tucker on the other hand - was more excited while helping Eric, instead of for the photo op afterwards with Mom.



Also this morning, the last of our nursery furniture was delivered! (Which ah... for those of you that know the furniture drama we've had to deal with over the past 16 weeks since ordering our original set - you know how relieved I am to finally just have this done!) A HUGE thank you to Mom, Dad and Madison who were able to go back to the store in DE and take care of business in person - canceling our original set, placing the order for the new set and then dealing with the new plan for making it up to us for creating such a mess in the first place :) Needless to say - the new set arrived days letter, and we received a nice refund for the all of the stress that was caused in the process. While this wasn't the original set we ordered, we absolutely love it! Here's what the nursery currently looks with our new furniture included!






Next up on our list for the nursery:
- Dad comes to build the closet
- Putting Bennett's things away 
- Decorating - including lots of DIY projects for adding those pops of teal to the nursery!
