Baby Belly and Baby Bedroom

MaryClaire will be here any minute! She has faked us out once already, I had false labor for 2 days a few weeks ago, but as of Friday my doctor said that I was 3cm dilated and that she had dropped. So this family is just (not so patiently) waitin' on the world to change over here. This belly pic was taken at 36 weeks, but since then it is has taken on a shape that I like to call the "Woa" shape! You know - the kind that gets bulging eyes and crazy stares in public. So before she comes, and life gets really crazy, I thought that I would FINALLY share pictures of her room!...

I tried to take a really simple approach and make a room that would last for a while. With this being my third baby, I've realized (so sadly) that nurseries just aren't needed for very long. But I love it's sweet simple/shabby-ish girliness. I saved a lot of money by using things that I already had around my house, using my childhood bedroom furniture (don't worry the crib is not vintage), shopping at consignment stores and on Ebay, and recruiting my mom to make a few things. Now all this room needs is its precious little occupant and it will be just perfect!
