The nursery is done!

Here it is! The nursery is finally put all together and reality is setting in. A baby is really coming!
My good friend & co-worker, Mary and her husband Tony came by on Saturday to bring us the last big piece of the room -- the crib. They keep their grandson during the week and had a crib for him to sleep in. Now that he's 3 1/2, they are graduating him to a big boy's bed and gave us the crib. What a huge blessing!
Our good friends that moved to St. Louis gave us the beautiful picture that's over the crib. It ties the room together, don't you think? The curtains were purchased with a gift card. The quilt at the end of the crib was made by our sister-in-law in Michigan. She didn't even know the colors, but hit it right on!
Here are the two items that my co-worker, Stephanie gave us -- the rocker and the dresser. We found the bookshelf at a yard sale. The pack-n-play was given to us by friends from church.
This was the only piece that we ended up buying -- the changing table. We got it for a great deal at a discount store for $40. The diaper pail was a gift from a co-worker. My youngest sister Katie made the curtain as well as the bed skirt for the crib.
We left this wall khaki and I'm not sure if it'll stay this way, but we got the cork board/picture frame thing at a yard sale and painted green which helps pull things together on the wall. The wall decals are a fun accent that we've added around the room.

There it is... We moved our bedroom around and have the bassinet in there ready for the little one's arrival. We're hoping by having it in the room already that the cats will get used to it and not bother it. Just under 4 weeks now!
