Hello hello! Hope all of you had a fabulous weekend. After a crazy week last week, David and I made it our mission to relax this weekend... and with lots of time by the pool, good food and fun, we certainly did so!
We also had some time to finally set up our new nursery furniture! And I have to say... I'm in love.
As I mentioned in my other post on the furniture, we purchased our crib from here and the glider from here. And couldn't be happier with either one!
The solid wood crib is perfection. Exactly what I wanted for our little pea pod.
Land of Nod customer service has been incredible. They even sent a little "welcome to motherhood" gift to me late last week (an adorable bumblebee swaddle blanket) as a thank you for purchasing a crib with them! Can't beat that. We're 100% happy with the crib so far. I can't wait to see it dressed up with some adorable little crib linens! : )
(Psst! See that picture frame sitting on the bin next to the crib? You know, right next to my wedding dress in a box and all of the other junk we've yet to move out of this room? That'd be an adorable handmade gift for my baby boy from the one and only Cassie! How sweet is she?! I love it.)
I'm also totally in love with the glider. It needs an ottoman companion, but it's still so comfortable.
And yes, you can see that David and I have decided to use our old living room rug in the nursery! I think the whimsical yellow pattern will be perfect for little man.
Of course, we still need to paint the room. The trim and bead board ceiling will definitely go a glossy white and we're thinking of a light gray for the wall colors. But, as you know, we're going to wait on that step until we're sure we won't sell the house before the baby arrives in early September.
I absolutely love the little view when you peek in the room.
Seeing all of this furniture really makes David and I feel beyond excited to meet our little guy. It feels like September won't get here soon enough!

Love the crib you picked! I so wish I had purchased a comfy chair like that when ours were little rather than the traditional wood rocker (so now comfy!). The yellow rug is a great addition. So cheerful.
