I'm so happy - finally, at 38 weeks pregnant, I have a completed nursery! The last piece of furniture was delivered the other day and now we have set it all up - I think it's gorgeous, I am SO happy with it - take a look at the pics below, although they don't really allow you to see everything correctly or do it justice. I may add a short video in here too.
But basically all we want to do now is:
a) put baby's name above his bed in large white wooden letters (which we already have, just have to mount)
b) put a shelf unit above the blanket box, which will be painted white. The shelf unit is great, I will post a pic at some point
c) put a white framed colourful jungle print above the dresser
Then it will be DONE! :) Yay!
In a way I'm glad we waited so long to do the nursery, not that it was what we wanted or intended - it just kinda happened that way due to other people, like our painter-friend, being slack - but now it makes everything much more exciting. I think if everything had been sitting there ready to go already, and I hadn't still had so much to do while on leave, I might have gotten anxious or impatient or bored. But as it is, I'm just excited!
The baby seat gets fitted on Thursday so I have let bubby know he can arrive sometime after that :) Will be interesting to see when he actually decides to join us - so many people think I will go early and I've heard SO MANY ladies going early lately - maybe it's the hot weather and the storms, or something in the air. :) All very mysterious but the one thing I know is - he'll come when he's good and ready, and not a minute before. So what's the point of stressing? :)
OK here are my pics - enjoy! I would love to hear your comments, and I'll update with video or better pics when I get the chance...
