Blake's Nursery!

So I have finally finished the nursery!! Yay!!

Our budget was pretty small plus we are renting so I didn't go all out with painting the walls or anything but I still think it turned out pretty cute. Luckily I already had all the furniture and some bins and stuff leftover from Cole so it didn't end up costing me much.

I went back and forth on a theme but finally settled on dinosaurs after seeing these ADORABLE digital scrapbook dinos by Jacque Larsen!

I made the wall hangings first and had them printed out. I got some 12x12 frames on etsy for $6 each which was amazing! I found a Pottery Barn GC from 3 years ago in some of our storage boxes so I was able to get a crib skirt from there. I printed out one of the dinos and used iron on to make the crib skirt. We don't use a crib bumper so other than a crib skirt, I just picked up some cheap sheets from Babies'R'Us. I searched EVERYWHERE for a light blue valance but ended up having to settle for a darker blue one. I ironed dinos onto that too. I found some super cute plush dinos online and ordered a few of those for some finishing touches!

Here's the end result...

Okay, Baby Blake... we're ready for you!!! Your big brother is waiting to play with you!! Don't worry, I'll make sure he puts some pants on first! HA!

Week 14 (?) of P365

Still no baby... okay okay, I know that I am still weeks away from my due date but I am still hoping! LOL!! Here are our latest pics, I missed some days but I'm not too stressed about it!

Cole brought his little stepping stool in from the bathroom to use as a chair in his bedroom.

My parents were in town for a baseball game so they stopped by the house. Cole enjoyed showing grandma his basketball skills.

Another nice day so we went out back to blow some bubbles. Cole always wants to blow them himself but he doesn't quite get it yet!

I asked him for his "nice" smile and this is what I got. He looks so sweet!

Cole is obsessed with taking pictures. I let him use out Olympus because it is shock proof and water proof. His fingers end up in most of the shots but oh well, it's a start!

This is what happens when Cole skips his nap. He ends up falling asleep at 6 PM while watching cartoons.

Daddy brought us home Hot Dog on a Stick. Cole loves corndogs! He was too busy watching TV to look at the camera!


Cole decided to color all over our carpet! Thanks kid!

37 weeks and HUGE!! I am so much bigger this pregnancy!! I'm hoping it's mainly fluid and not a big baby!!

Cole loves running upstairs, yelling "Try to get me mommy!" and hiding in our closet! Silly kid!

That's all for now. Hopefully I will get better at this!! I am working on the nursery right now and should have pics soon. The theme is "dinosaurs" and I was inspired by this scrapbook kit...
