Nursery is ready and waiting...

 Finally got to those curtains I needed to stitch for the nursery

christened my christmas gift (new Brother sewing machine)

and got them done :)

 Grant putting them up...

 A lot of visual stimulation...

love it!

 The crib and sleeper is ready...

 We mounted some shelves to hold diaper changing accessories

Here is the daiper changing station on the dresser we painted :)

the drawers have all the little onesies and what not...

 Also got some shelves up for her books

and the closet is all stocked!

 

 And last but not the least a comfy feeding spot :)

 Still a few things like pictures and hooks to hang

but it is basically done

We are due in a week

but turns out, the baby is not ready to come yet!

So we will just have to wait a lil longer :/

Master Bath almost done!

The toilet is in...

 Plumbing done...

 

  The grouted tile looks gorgeous!!!

For our 1st time I think we did a pretty good job :)

Then all the nice shiny fixtures went in...

 And then the finishing trim :)

Now just the mirror above the sink left to go on

will wait for some assistance with the heavy lifting on that one

but it's almost done!!!

Baby stuff...

Ekkkkk! only 2 weeks to go...

We were thrown a baby shower last week at work

got a lot of nice cute baby stuff

 

  below is Miki stalking the balloons :)

all the presents...lots of necessities :) and more clothes!!! :D

Then of course it was time to order everything else we had left on our list

so spent an evening ordering everything and will be getting everything

 at the front door by next week :)

We love shopping online! Can't wait for all the stuff to arrive :)

   

Will post pics of the Nursery soon too :)

Busy busy busy!

Ok so its been a while since I last posted

we have been busy trying to get things done around the house

time is really precious and every evening is another project to complete

we will feel like we are in heaven once we are done

we won't be completely done with all the projects we want to do anytime soon

but the ones we have deemed important will get done :)

Like the Master Bathroom...

that's right as I type this Grant is putting the finishing touches

will have pics to post really sooooon!

 Here is just a phone pic of Grant grouting the tiles

The Master Bedroom....

the room and trim has been painted, the closet is done,

the bed has been selected, I have a really nice vanity

now we just have to figure out the mattress

but I think we are going to wait till after the baby comes

just so that I can make a fair decision :)

other stuff like drapes and rugs will be bought at a later time as well

The Laundry room...

making progress on that room too

although the first floor is our priority right now

once the upstairs is done we can concentrate on this room

The Nursery...

My coworkers just had a baby shower for us

and we got a lot of cute little stuff :)

will have to post a whole another blog on that :)

Master Bedroom continued...

Remember what it used to look like....

the ceiling also had the same peach color

so these pics are after the ceiling was painted white and already looks 10 times better

Well not anymore...

the walls are a soft gray and the trim is in our fav white...

Amazing how painting (in the right color) can transform a room so drastically!

We love the colors on this pillow that we found and will be using that as inspiration

for the colors in the master bedroom :)

Eeeeee 4 weeks to go before our baby is suppose to get here!
