More change...

Our nursery has been a fun work in progress! I bought the big furniture pieces last fall but insisted they stay in the garage until we were into our 2nd trimester. Since we decided we would not learn the baby's gender until delivery I started working with some fun colors inspired by my floral rug from Pier 1.
My mom and I sewed these owl critters inspired from a Pintrest post.
The owl theme was too much fun so it has continued! My friends and family got on board and Baby Maule and I received many cute, fun, thoughtful, colorful, owl items.
And of course my favorite color, ORANGE! Can you believe I found these fabulous chairs for only $30 bucks? And again my mom put her sewing skills to use and made the roman shades. She did a great job! We're expecting Baby Maule's arrival soon and we have just a few finishing touches to put on the nursery but all the basics are in place! It has been such a fun and exciting time and again I have so many people that I am grateful for. I have been completely overwhelmed by the thoughtfulness and generosity of all of the love, support, and gifts that we have received.

  1. I am loving the orange! The owls are cute too! Most of all I love that you are keeping the gender a surprise. It makes it that much more fun! Helped me get thru the pain of labor too. I didn't know with Ethan or Hudson. I thought it was cool that Matt got to tell all our family in the waiting room "It's a boy." I mean the women get so much attention with their growing belly I love that he got to make the announcement about the gender. Wishing you a quick and easy labor. Can't wait to see your first post AFTER baby is here.
