Baby Girl's Room

Here's the view from the door

We have 19 days till she is here!!!  July 18th at 7:30 am is our scheduled c-section!  In some ways I can't believe it's already here, but in other ways this pregnancy has been so so long.

We've had so much happen in the past year.  It's been a busy year.  We have survived
  •  my most unique and challenging pregnancy
  • our first year to home school
  • Michael's travels out of town (he was gone five weeks in the Nov/Dec, plus tons of little trips)
  • trying to sell our house
  •  working as children's director at the church
  • extended family illness
  • converting to a plant based, whole foods lifestyle and learning how to eat again
  •  trying to keep three precious active boys busy
And that's just to name a few things.  :-)

In our free time, we've managed to convert our boys' nursery into a little girl's without too much effort.  We have been blessed by so many people's generosity.  Look and see...




Her crib!  Bedding was given to us by our friend, Ruth.  Some of the decorations were made by our friend, Amanda.

I made some pretty paper flowers to continue with the paint theme that was already there. And the dresser and closet are slammed full with girl clothes.  I have not bought a single stitch of clothing yet and won't until she's four.  We really have been blessed by our family and friends.

I made some girlie, pretty pictures to add a special touch to the room.  
I made the owl pictures to represent our four kiddos.  Each owl is different and unique, yet cut from the same cloth.  The flower has six petals to represent our six member family.  I'll put up her name and meaning on a plaque beside the flower once we decide on a name.
