Nursery pictures...

The much awaited nursery pictures are finally being posted. I'm very happy about how everything has turned out. I'm also excited about the things that I made myself, I covered her lamp shade, made the bulletin board, painted the Calla Lillies, and the "Monkey See Monkey Do" sign, put together the flower arrangement on her bookshelf, painted the letters of her name to match her bedding, and painted her cross and added the cute sequin monkey! I'm also going to do a nightlight to match her lampshade, so I'll post that later.

I decided to post a link to shutterfly for everyone to see the pictures there, as posting all of the pictures on here would be too much!! Also for those who don't want to look, you certainly don't have to!!!

I've also washed a lot of her clothes and put them in the closet, in her dresser, and am starting to pack up diaper bags.

I leave tomorrow for a mission trip in New Orleans with our college kids, which I'm very excited for, but I wanted to be as ready as possible before I left so I could give my all while I'm there. When I get back I'll be here for two weeks, then take our youth to camp, which I'm banking on being a life changing experience for them, so again I wanted to be able to give my all while we are there too! Please be praying for those trips, but also for our baby girl as we prepare to bring her home. She can come anytime after I get back from camp. Baby Mama will be 37 weeks on June 17th, which is full term, so we'll see when she arrives. Pray for an easy delivery for Baby Mama, as her first childbirth was very awful, and I know she doesn't want that to happen again! So, keep us all in your prayer!

  7. Deni! It all looks so amazing! I saw some monkey notecards today at Paper Capers and decided that we need to get those for you and Ms. Cala Fay. She is going to be so precious tucked in there! The details look amazing and she sure is a lucky little girl!

  10. Sweetest Friend, Kindred Spirit,

    If one wants to know what perfection + a lot of hard work = it's LOVE! Every detail echos how very much your daughter means to you.

    From the cross to the vintage doll and the precious painting, its all been crafted with such love sweet friend. Be proud of your efforts honey, as it has all paid off.

    Know that I love you and these pictures made me smile. I'm anxious for Cala to arrive and send her love in advance...love to you and Sean as well. As for Baby Mama, I will pray for her safety and comfort during the delivery.

    Do enjoy your trip with the youth and know that I'm sending more love and many prayers your way as you continue to leave a mark on my life :)

    xoxo
    your kindred spirit
