Nursery



The nursery is starting to come together. Derek assembled the crib and hauled the mattress and dresser up the stairs and we both painted the walls and trim work.

We have not started decorating the walls yet, but we have plenty of time. And I'm looking for an ivory lamp with a pink or raspberry shade. When we settle on a name for her, I'll paint wooden letters of her name the same colors of the bedding and mount them on the wall or on a shelf over the crib. Little Baby G is going to have a butterfly theme for her nursery.

Week 34 Baby Shower




Lisette's girlfriends Sarah & Koren threw a fantastic baby shower on Mothers day weekend. Flowers, cake, yummy snacks, gifts, prizes, and hilarious games such as sniffing melted chocolate bars in diapers to identify them. Baby Groen received so many wonderful gifts including bibs, bath toys and towels, blankets, bottles, crib sheets, stroller, porta crib,bath seat, diaper pail, and her wardrobe is now quite extensive with sleepers, onesies, sweaters, sun dresses, matching hats, shoes, and even sunglasses. When baby G arrives she'll have to put on a fashion show. Thank you for everything!
