Starting the Nursery

I'm excited to report that this weekend John started on the nursery! Woo-hoo!!!!! The past couple of weekends were spent clearning out stuff from what was formerly our guest bedroom. Now John is finally able to paint. It's taking several days since he's doing it single-handedly, but it's looking great! The paint is called "Frosted Lemon" by Behr. We're hoping it will go well with the bedding sets we registered for ("Little One" by Lambs & Ivy and "Sweet Safari").


And speaking of bedding, the search for the perfect sets has been a bit of a challenge. One, I can't physically go look at anything, and second, there is no store (to my knowledge) that even carries the Lambs & Ivy set. It's not like I can just have someone go look for me and report back. So we're giving it our best guess based on the online pictures (below) and hoping it will all look good together.

Also, my parents were in town this past weekend and they got us our stroller and car seats! Double Woo-hoo!!!! Clyde and Cody weren't sure what to think about the stroller.

Oh my goodness, I LOVE the baby bedding you picked out! And with the room yellow, it's going to be fabulous! I'm so sad I can't be there to help get their room ready!!! I'm just thankful you are taking lots of pictures and keeping the blog updated so I can enjoy it all the way from the Philippines. I love you girl and I'm getting so EXCITED! The picutre of the dogs in the stroller rocks. They will be shocked when you bring the babies home.
