Savannah's Completed Nursery - 01.02.2012

cannot believe 2012 is here. It's truly amazing how fast 2011 went. I have to admit... I was a tad sad to see it go. It was a very blessed year for me and my family. But, I believe that 2012 has a lot more blessings in store for us and that it will be that much better! I promised I would get back to blogging at the beginning of the year, so here I am! I hope all of you had a terrific holiday season. We had a terrific one filled with more exhaustion than I ever thought I could feel. I never felt this tired even when I worked full time and attended law school at night! Being a new mommy is definitely tiring and I have a whole new boatload of respect for moms out there! Especially those of you with 2 or more kids. God bless you! Really! Now... it's been exhausting, but... it's also been the most rewarding and amazing experience of my entire life. Watching our little Savannah grow on a day to day basis has been nothing short of amazing and awesome. I love my little pumpkin so much! She's just wonderful. : )

I had a lot of visitors in the past three weeks. One of them was my sister who visited from Chicago. She stayed with me all week and helped me complete the nursery (which I thought I had another month to finish!). Since Savannah came to us 5 weeks early... nothing was done. Just the basics (like the bassinet was ready and the car seat and stroller). I mean... we had diapers and wipes and such. But, that's about it! So, when my dear friend dropped off the crib and my sister brought me her handy personality and elbow grease... we got to work! I love how it turned out and I hope you do too! Enjoy the tour!

p.s. I will have Mid-Century Monday either later on today or next Monday. Remember... there's a baby on board! Life is quite unpredictable now a days!

These paper lanterns above the crib were the decor for my baby shower.

I got these owl bookends at Pottery Barn Kids - $32

Diaper changing station. The table is a vintage table from The Red Herring Antiques in Tampa. It used to be our entrance table in our living room (for our keys and such), but it worked out great as a changing table! The canvas is from Anthropologie.

Froggie humidifier from Target, as well as the side table.

We bought these little prints at Earthbound Trading Co. in Savannah, GA over the summer. $12

The flowers on the wall are from gift bags from the baby shower! The letters are from Target's dollar section.

I just got this picture frame as a gift from my mom, so I have yet to put a picture in it. I need to work on that!

The lamp is from our shop and the cork board was made using IKEA fabric and a board from Sunshine Thrift Store in Tampa.

This light green vintage dresser was found on the side of the road a couple of years ago. We didn't paint it or anything. It's super charming! : )

Our Jenny Lind crib and crib bedding was gifted by a dear friend of mine. I just love it! : )

This room is also our guest bedroom. Of course... it's mommy and baby room for now. : )
