baby room part one
Lately I find it hard to concentrate on much else other then this baby I carrying around everywhere in my huge belly! I am getting everything ready for him/her as if he/she is coming much sooner than will actually happen. I am afraid there will be nothing left to do and I will be bored for the two last months of pregnancy but nevertheless I’m charging and setting up the monitors, everything has been washed twice, folded, and now has a spot in either the baby room or bathroom and I’m running out of things to work on before the baby comes. I’m sure I’ll find things to do but I’m just not sure what that is yet. I’m sure most moms will tell me to enjoy this time because it’s soon to end for a very long time and whether or not that is the advice you’d give, I’m taking it!
I can’t wait to meet this babe! For now, I’ll just continue to busy myself with tasks here and there and I hope to get lots of reading done as my very full job ends soon (not to mention getting back into the swing of things photography related).
Here is a little craft I’ve been working on especially for baby. There is a slight owl/tree theme emerging in the baby room but in true form to the way Jordan and I are you better believe there will be plenty of color (since we don’t know the gender) and nature infused into the room… I thought for a week or two about having everything matching, color specific, and more trendy/polished look but then I realized how that wasn’t going to be natural for me so I’m going with the flow.
Stuffed owls for baby. Hand stitched. I’ve had this idea in my mind for a while and been waiting for the perfect project to use fabric I picked up at the Absolutely Art Re-art Swap and a little antique store in IL. They turned out exactly how I pictured them!
Then below are photos of the smaller stuffed owls (in process and still need to be hung) for the mobile above the crib.
Apparently I ran out of room for loading photos here on wordpress and I’m too tired to look into ways to post more of the owl photos.








oh my goodness, p. those owls are incredibly cute!!!! we have some owl stuff collected for baby collier, too, though these little darlings blow most of ‘em outta the water. nicely done!
