In the last week, Mama Bird has been busy nesting by organizing the boys' room, cleaning out closets, and yes ... decorating the nursery! It started with the simple task of hauling out the bins of baby clothes from our basement and laundering those sweet little newborn sizes. Then it progressed today to transforming our former guest bedroom to our new "contemporary nature" themed nursery! Kudos to Scott for his fine craftsmanship with the large vinyl tree decal (AKA the biggest sticker EVER). The tree went up in sections and took several hours to do (with some breaks in between to watch football!) Here's the work in progress...
A 7 ft. tall tree requires
use of the ladder for installation!
Almost done ... putting on the finishing touches!

Tah-dah ... the finished nursery!
As we were planning for the nursery, we incorporated several elements of past and present.
- The antique rocking chair belonged to Jami's Great-Grandmother Pearson.
- The crib, bedding & changing table were used by big brothers Luke & Reid.
- The "moon" hanging pendant lamp and the wall tree are the newer elements we incorporated, just for Baby Boy #3!
- We'll likely add a few more touches along the way, but it's nice to have a majority of the work complete. Mission accomplished!
