Nursery madness...

Cleaning out a room is messy! Yup, that sounds ridiculous! : ) My mom says that "It gets worse before it gets better" ALL THE TIME! So, I've tried this line on Clay... he doesn't really buy it! : )
Another messy thing... getting nursery furniture! Nursery furniture is for tiny, little people; however, the boxes and pieces are far from it! Getting this furniture didn't just destroy one room, it destroyed the entire house!!! It's all back to normal now though and our nursery is well on it's way to being ready for sweet Baby Asa! : )



The picture below is of the entire room after we got everything put together and the bedding put into the crib! We still have a long way to go, but it's getting there!!! : )
The pictures will come down and the guitar that hasn't been played in at least 5 years will be moved out. We decided not to paint the room or change things too much since we'll be putting our house on the market soon. So, "all" this nursery work may be for nothing if our house sells and we have to move into temporary housing while our new house is being built! AGH! : )



Our crib and sweet blue, white and red bedding! : ) And, the ADORABLE little lamb that Mrs. Schickner gave us for Asa! We love it and can't wait for him to snuggle with it! : )



The nursery will sort-of have a vintage airplane theme, so we got some old toy airplanes for the dresser. Also, the dresser will have a hutch above it...
We spent over an hour putting the hutch together only to discover that it was for the single dresser and we have the double dresser... oops!
And, notice the super cute personalized piggy bank!? It was a sweet gift from Aunt Kris! : ) We've already started filling it up (that's a whole other story)! : )



Additional changes that will be made:
-the hutch will be added to the dresser and it will also serve as the changing station (who knows when that will show up!?)
-the glider should come in about 3-5 weeks!!! YAY!
-I ordered these cute block letters (that spell Asa) that will sit on a picture ledge above/behind the crib
-I also ordered a hanging picture frame that matches the block letters... man, Etsy is T-R-O-U-B-L-E! : )
-We want to get a white shaggy rug to lay down in the middle of the room
-We got the cute little Pottery Barn chair that Asa can sit in when he gets here! : ) It's red and says Asa in white

Hmmm... I think that's all we've done so far. I'm sure there will be a few little touches that will be added here and there though (even if Clay objects)! : )
