Five Fabrics...

Coordinating five pink fabrics has be tougher than I thought it would be for the baby's quilt. I have four, but it is the last one that has been hard to find what is just right. I decided to go with the fabrics all in the same collection so the shades of pink will be right- but I just can't decide on that fifth fabric.

Option 1
Option 2
Option 3

We're Wallpapering!

Thanks for your comments! I decided on the last one, Princess Pink Damask. Wallpaper takes 2-3 weeks to come in...so now we are just waiting.

Wallpaper is back- but maybe in smaller doses than you might have grown up with... A couple of blogs I read have featured some gorgeous damask wallpapers- and I think this is just what our sweet baby nursery needs to make an impact! I'm only planning on doing one wall (behind the crib). Since the crib is white and the bedding is brown and white- it needs some contrast. Here are the three I've narrowed it down to... Florence (cottage prints)- in pink (show in a room in green above)Damask also by cottage prints (this is my favorite- but it is really cream, and I don't think it will work with the "true white" crib and bedding)

Princess (yes, as in DISNEY!) Pink Damask- This probably works the best- but the thought of doing Disney princesses already has turned me against it. However, have no fear, I have no intention of using the matching cinderella boarder!

I'm deciding today- so please, place your vote quick. I only will need 2-3 rolls and with free labor (thanks Dad!) this should be a reasonable project!

Wedding Flowers

Bridesmaids Bouquets- Pink Hydrangeas with green ribbons

Kris' Bouquet- (Ivory Roses from Bel Fiore Florist)

The centerpieces- limes with fern

Favors (monogrammed white chocolates from Aunt Pam)

Hurricanes with Hydrangeas (from mine and my parents' yard) used in the front of the church and again in the reception-

And last, but not least- Sam's fingerprint in the cake (which he touched immediately after entering the reception).

No one seemed to notice.

Some favorite pictures from the big day...

I'm so glad I had my camera- the photographer didn't take many shots with Sam other than a family and groom/groomsmen pose.

Both of the boys had colds this weekend. Sam's worst day was Saturday- he wasn't himself at all. But he hung in there and did better than I could have asked.

He did it!

Sam made it down the aisle- and through the ceremony! Above is a sneak peak- more wedding pictures coming soon (I've got over 200 to sort through!).

Bunk Beds!

These are the bunk beds I really liked for the boys. But for about 700.00 less- we bought a set unfinished and painted them navy with $18 worth of paint. Most surprisingly- the boys are doing great in their beds! They are even sleeping in later in the morning and falling asleep faster at night. I think they love sharing a room and being together! Also, it speeds up our bedtime routine- only one "story time"! We are really surprised how well the transition has been and are hoping this isn't just a "bunk bed honeymoon"! And best of all- no one has fallen (or jumped!) out of bed so far.

More pictures of their room to come soon!
