Connor's Room!



Connor's furniture came in today! Since I knew it was going to be delivered today, I couldn't help but get the other valance from Babies 'R Us yesterday and also found the wooden curtain rods I'd been looking for to hang up the valances. I just knew I would want it to look as "done" as possible when the furniture arrived today!

I am very pleased with how everything turned out. Brian and I only put the crib and hutch in every possible configuration. I'm not sure that the crib will stay in front of the windows as it is now, but for now...it is fine. We are also going to use the dresser and hutch as a changing table, so I will have to take out the bottom shelf, but again...for now, it is fine.

I love all the bold colors and the fact that it looks like a little man's room. Let's just hope the ultrasound technician was right and we are really having a boy! It would take a lot of work to girl-up this room!

Obviously, the room isn't 100% complete, but for just getting the furniture today, I am very pleased with the outcome. I'll have to take some truly completed pictures at a later date, and during the day too. For now...I hope you all approve!

love love love it! You did such a great job:-) He will be here before you know it, hang in there these last weeks! Go on some good dates with Brian too;-) We kept having "last" dates before Ella arrived~ I remember the not getting any sleep the last weeks too---it was just an uncomfortable time!! Before long he will be out of your belly and into your arms:-)

Wow, you move fast! The room looks great. If it is this settled already, I can only imagine how the rest of your new house looks. Can't wait to see more pics!

Ditto on doing the "dates" thing, especially things that you absolutely cannot do with a baby in tow (i.e. movie theatres, nice restaurants, etc.). But it is so fun to tote a tiny baby around to the places you CAN bring him and watch everyone coo and make over him. I cannot wait to meet him! You look great, btw! Loves the napping on the couch pic. Take advantage of that too! :)

His room looks great, it is definitely a little boy's room. I hope he gets his mama's sense of style & eye for design! :)
