The Nursery is Complete!

After much thought, preparation, and love from family and friends, our baby's nursery is finally complete!  We absolutely love the apple green and teal blue colors, and the woodland theme is very special to us as it is something that has made us love this house so much.  When we first moved in, we were in awe of all the trees and wildlife right in our backyard...we saw lots of deer, rabbits, squirrels, birds, and even a turtle!  But what really blew us away were the owls that we would hear when we had our windows open in the spring .  We later found out that the owls we were hearing were barred owls, which make a specific call and answer back when called to!  They were one of the reasons we chose this owl and woodland theme for our nursery (not to mention that owls seem to be everywhere these days!).  We chose some fun fabrics and Grandma Kimmie made all of the nursery bedding for us - it turned out so cute!  The cradle used to be my cradle, and somewhere I have a photo of myself as an infant, sleeping soundly in it.  Aubrey and Chris made and put up the tree on the wall, a gift for our baby shower.  It really completed the room!  Marshall painstakingly sanded and stained the wood on the hutch to match the crib and dresser.  I also painted the window above the crib, and the two paintings above the changing table.  We are ready for our baby boy to arrive, and can't believe he'll be here in just 6 short weeks!  I hope you enjoy the photos below of the finished nursery!
