We are in the process of slowly moving things around in Maddox's room. That way when we bring a crib in there it won't be a sudden transition of this was your room and now it is not. We still need to remove a chair (the one that has been the time out chair, I've been trying to get him to sit on his bed), and move some stuff around on the walls. I'm not ready to purchase a crib yet. I'm thinking March will be a good time for that purchase. I know what I want, I'm just not ready to buy.
I've been rolling around in my brain all sorts of different decorating ideas. We are using a quilt made by Vicki's late cousin Ethel as the basis of colors and such. It is a beautiful bunny quilt and I've loved it ever since it came in the mail for Max. I'm planning on making some cute pieces of art for the walls and I'm thinking her name will be above her crib.
I go back and forth on whether to make her a mobile. I've seen several ideas that I've LOVED that I think would be easily replicated. But, Max was addicted to his Winnie the Pooh mobile and part of me thinks that I should just use it again, even if it isn't quite the look I want.
I have a short list of "need to gets" before she arrives.... there really isn't that much she needs. I showed off my clothing purchases earlier this week, but those certainly weren't needs, that was just fun!
Slowly I'm becoming organized. I even put pen to paper and wrote out all the thoughts that have been tumbling around. I keep telling myself there is a long time till May, but I just don't want to put everything off and be sitting there at the end of April with a list a mile long. Plus it is fun to prepare for our new little bundle!
