Would You Like To See Nursery Pics??

13 years ago

Everything is not in it's 'permanent' place, but it is all there. They will have the carpet laid in the basement this week, so the office will be completely moved out of the baby's room. Baby boy is due the 7th of Sept...although I honestly think he will be a bit early. Kalie is hoping for August 23, as her birthday, her MIL's BD and Mike's niece's BD are all on the 23rd! (I told her 'good luck' with that! LOL)

The crib, the only wall with the stripes is behind the crib.

Dresser & Hutch. The bears in the wagon are Mike & Kalie's childhood teddy bears!

Kalie has had a large collection through the years of Boyd's Bears....she finally has somewhere to display most of her collection.

Kalie is pulling 100% for the name Jackson (Jack), Mike said he is waiting to meet the baby first! :)

Looks just great.
I think that's the same crib we got Maddie....converts later into a youth bed, then a single bed?

Here's our exterior & the corresponding interior photos of our window/door combination using beige/tan windows-- FWIW, similar to you, I thought it would bother me, but it really doesn't. Having all the grids match in color certainly helps. Do note that if you're having transoms over the doors/windows that they are sized different as you can see in my photo--both are 12" transoms by the manufacturer specs, but you can see the obvious difference. The transom window height differential does still bother me & is one of the things I would gladly pay to change--but that's another story. Hope this helps!

Stacy, I like the picture of Sydney, she is an incredibly beautiful girl. I don't feel the filter the photographer is using on his/her camera does it justice. The filter used is far more fitting for the photo of Syd sitting on the porch of some old building. The water photo would look better as a black and white and cropped a little tighter so she is slightly to the left. It cools the image off a little and makes it more balanced. What do you think? (sorry, it's the graphic designer coming out in me :-) Jodi-

Bonnie, I just cut the grass, sprayed weed killer and Deer Fence repellent was dragged across the yard by Shasta going after a rabbit and standing for 10 minutes alongside my shed because she wouldn't leave where the rabbit hid and now I am going out to trim the grass.....so, it looks nice but right now I'm not in love. BUT, thank you, I appreciate it.

Monica...yes, this turns into a double bed later...I think Kalie said.

Kat...neither of the girls' looked like this either!! Theirs were all from garage sales!

I was born in Clinton about a half hour up the river from Davenport. I moved to Omaha, in '65 and moved back to Iowa (Des Moines) as soon as I got a chance which was in '79. In just over four months I met and married my hubby. His family is all still in and around Des Moines so we visit there often. I love Des Moines and saw my all time favorite singer song writer, Dan Fogelberg, in concert in Ames back in '82.

LOL The girls NEVER had a TV in their room either! Kalie has said that he will not have control over it, she doesn't want a kid sitting in front of the TV. (yes...this Nana made a comment about a TV in the room!....it is for Kalie for now! ha)

There are some of the bears that he will be allowed to play with. They went to Build A Bear and made him his first bear. Kalie's childhood bear could be played with, but Mike's is just about used up.

Thanks Sandy. I saw the box but thought it contained a baby accessory. My new TV didn't come in a box, it was a floor model.

The room is beautiful and I like the fact that Jackson will be able to use that bed and the other furniture for many years. I know you're sooo excited!! Grandchildren add such pleasure to our lives and give us an excuse to do silly things without having to explain! Bettye/AZ

Sandy, the striped wall is so neat. Is it wallpaper or did you tape and paint? That TV will come in handy for your daughter during those late night/early morning feedings. Bet you can wait to get hold of him!

The stripes are painted. Mike did ALL of it! He did such a great job on it.

Yes....the TV is for Kalie for middle of the night nursings/feedings. They have a rocking chair ordered for the room also...then it will be complete.
