Nesting

I spent the better part of my second trimester and the beginning of the third doing some serious nesting.  Purging drawers and closets, organizing the kitchen, sorting things out in Wyatt's room, and of course, getting Ruby Kate's room finished.  I had lots of things stored in boxes that needed to be pulled out and sanitized, (not that it has been THAT long since I've used most of it...)




Pictures never do a scene justice but here we go, I'll at least try.  I have had so much fun setting up a baby girl's room!  We did not go with any specific theme, just wanted it to be girly, fun, warm, and cozy. This is the view from her bedroom door. 


I was gifted with some adorable little things for her room, including this blingy butterfly.


This is the view from her bathroom door, which is Jack 'n' Jill style and connects to Wyatt's room.  (Love that!)


View while sitting in the glider in the corner.  Notice the fabulous bed and crib skirt?!  A dear friend of mine made those custom just for Ruby, they are GORGEOUS!


A little night light on the wall, thank you Ikea. 



My dear friend Elise made these letters for Ruby!  They are fabulous and look even better up close! 

The girl's got some head bands!


Cute little book shelf and "vanity" area for my princess.


Close up of the skirts....if you see closely they sparkle :)



HELLO! Lil' lady has got some clothes, I'll tell you what.  We have been so blessed by friends and family showering us with little girl things, and have been SO fortunate to inherit the most fabulous hand me downs from dear friends with a little girl who is a year older than Ruby.  (Thank you Steve and Lissette!!)


Another dear friend mailed this boppi cover just last week- SO EXCITED!!  Thank you Emily Pierson, you are such a sweet friend.  



little odds and ends, can a girl ever have enough decorative pillows?  I think not.  

Used some  spare ribbon to create a little interchangeable photo spot. 


more headbands...Thank you Mimi....



A quick self portrait...Ruby's room complete at the end of week 36!


Now bring on my baby girl!  This momma's had enough of being pregnant!!!!
Hope you enjoyed.  Please pray for a safe delivery via C-section on May 22.  Many thanks!
Megs and Ruby
