the update on the baby boy & his room

Well, baby boy seems to be doing swimmingly. (Get it?)

He’s growing like a little weed in there, today we are at 29 weeks, he weights 2.5 pounds and is 15 inches long!

He’s jumping about too, which is still really fun for me, I love it that he’s enjoying womb- life!

From the last time I posted about baby boy’s room, a lot has changed, mainly in terms of simplicity! The main thing that has changed is the bedding issue, I’ve gone from trying my darndest to find fabric I love, to simply giving into some fabulous dwell studio bedding, that’s actually affordable, and cute. And, amazingly enough, once I decided on this, the ideas started flowing.

Where we are in the process is:

• we have a sample can of paint (we gotta test this out before I’m buying gallons & gallons of it)
• bedding is picked out!
• crib is here (as you know, from our massive ikea trip)
• the glider is on order (should be in soon!) (thank you 20% off coupons for saving us lots on this!)
• we’ve found an awesome dresser from our talented friend, brad
• i purchased a few canvases on major sale at ac moore (i’ve got big plans for them!)
• i’m building a custom mobile, and i’m slowly collecting supplies, hint: maps
• and some accessories!

I know I’m not giving away a lot of details, but I’m waiting till we actually have everything put together, so you can SEE it, instead of guessing at it.

Tonight, I’m off to find a crib mattress so I can use another 20% off coupon!  And possibly work on two of the projects I have planned for his room!
