working on the nursery

Mike and I started officially working on Miss Delainey's nursery yesterday after a very strange morning.

Mike cleaned the carpet in her room with the professional carpet cleaner from the Star Center (some of the perks of his job I guess) and we took a trip to Lowes to pick out the paint and gather a few items we needed for her room like a light fixture.

All in all (aside from the two flat tires we found on my CR-V yesterday morning and the hour we spent at Perfection Honda "dealing" with this) it was a very productive day.

Check out the picture of the nursery "before" - yes those are pea green walls - yes they were this color when we bought the house and just were not a total priority because really this room had been very rarely used until now...but now...the green goes!

imagine that...Pudga felt the need to be in the picture!

Phase 1 of the nursery (cleaning the carpet) has started...the futon is still in the nursery but we are going to move it out today. It is starting to get real...Miss D will be here in less than 12 weeks (well that's if she feels like coming "on time")

Cheers to a productive Sunday!
