Last night the nursery was finally completed. Not completed in the finished with every thing ready for baby kind of way, more like just done being painted. This is a HUGE step and we are very excited to begin putting together the pieces and parts of Baby Hassmer's nursery and the time has finally come. The crib is here. Not put together, but it's here. The bedding for the crib is in. No mattress yet, but we're on a hunt for that next. We have bookshelves that are ready to be painted and we have also purchased a glider to rock our sweet baby in when he/she arrives. I am so excited about the journey that I wanted to share the pictures from the 3 days of painting. My husband, my hero, took on this project as his contribution (not his only, mind you) to the baby and has done an AMAZING job. The walls are beautiful, his time was well spent and he has created an awesome home for our little one and I'm so proud.
Here are some of the pictures from the past week:
The bottom half of the wall in the nursery had already been painted navy blue and we wanted to change that so two coats of primer was David's first job.
He finished this quickly and was ready to move on to the fun stuff. Can't tell it was even blue!
Because we won't know the sex of the baby until the end of August, although I'm pretty sure I already know, we decided to go with neutral colors because the nursery needed to be completed before David went back to school. Yellow on the top and green on the bottom!
Can you tell he's excited about the finished product? Don't worry, radiator is coming out sometime in September and we'll finish off the bottom of that wall with a new baseboard.
