The Nursery

We finally finished the nursery!! Well...we're 99% done and that's good enough for right now! Fortunately for us, Courtney Bertrand helped us get started with the circles and painted the Bible verse (Joshua 1:9) on the wall. We have no idea how she did it with no templates, but Courtney's obviously pretty talented. Todd was not as thrilled with the concept because Courtney left, Maddy went on bed rest and Todd got to finish and then touch up the 123 circles on the walls. Yes, 123! That's why 99% complete is good enough for right now.

Maddy cross stitched the blanket hanging above the crib. If you can't find the second crib, its because we're starting them out in the same one. We'll let them share a crib until they get big enough to kick each other and wake us up with crying. We don't want to deal with kicking until they're in their terrible two's.

You can see Todd's influence in the nursery with the Reveille mobile, the Dodger baseball cap on the teddy bear and the Twins hat on the white bunny rabbit. Yes, we really were corny enough to buy Minnesota Twins outfits for our Wylie Twins!
