the nursery is DONE minus Brooklyn!

Well, finally we are done with the room. I began nesting early, given my previous bed rest experience and this being the first time I could actually do a nursery BEFORE a baby. Last time we were living at Ken and Joan's and building our house. I posted a bunch of pics and video. We couldn't have put this together without the help and love of our friends and family....so many thanks (and paybacks) are in order. Mark Hoffman hung the trim in record speed, Stef's folks purchased the bedding and changing cover to get us started and the "LOVE" blocks (which I used for color inspiration), Jut's folks bought us the two bookshelfs and Uncle Chad put them together. Jut and I painted...but thanks to him for being patient while I obsessed with finishing and thanks to Jayden for being such a sport as we worked on the room. He slept the entire time so we could paint! He also hammered some stuff...I don't exactly know what.....
And last but not least, did you see the girls collection of shoes and clothes?! Well thanks to some terrific ladies, Katie Henry and Sarah Kinney, Brooklyn will probably never wear the same outfit twice! Talk about beautiful hand me downs! They have some of the best dressed girls in the world and now Brooklyn be stylin too! Friends and family are such a blessing and we are so thankful for all the help and prayers!
Now, we are just waiting the arrival of our little girl!
