Oh, in the captions below I allude to the baby's name (depending on the gender, obviously). We are definite on Emery Catherine but I am not certain if Bodie James is absolutely the boy name. I like it a lot and I think it suits a Slagel boy, but I think Ben is maybe a little on the fence. We've tossed around Bodie Matthew, Justin Matthew, Logan James, etc. But we keep coming back to Bodie.
Me at almost 20 weeks. Dayum! Only going to get bigger!
New high chair I bought today so that our nephew has a place to eat.
Curtains that Daddy just finished hanging. I took a close up so that the polka dots are visible.
Toddler quilt that matches the crib bumper--I know, I know....can't have that in there once the baby comes! The cute frog snuggy blanket is from Aunt Paige.
The pram is hanging out in the nursery until Emery Catherine/Bodie James decides to join the family. The plan is to hang the baby's name in those big white wooden letters once he or she arrives (on either pink or blue ribbon). The baskets underneath the crib are full of teethers and rattles--people are so nice!
The mobile and some bunny friends. The white bunny snuggy is from Grandma Slagel and the brown stuffed bunny is from Grandma Heinz. Alison and Brian have already decided that little Hayes will call our mom "Oma," which is grandma is German. I have a feeling our child will adopt that as well. Dad will be "Opa." Alison, did I spell those correctly?
The changing table--stocked and ready to go, although I am not terribly excited about using it.
Another view of the curtains and some toy baskets
The rocker I used to have in our family room and just had it reupholstered for the nursery. The footstool is OLD--it was in my grandparents' house in San Antonio when I was little. Grandmom emroidered a floral design on the cushion. I had it reupholstered in the same fabric as the chair and although the wood is dark, I just really like the idea of having some heirlooms in the baby's room. Alison bought the bunny print at a craft show at The Lovett School several months ago and surprised me with it. It's perfect! I love it. The baby already has stacks and stacks of books--gotta start grooming for Notre Dame ASAP. Right, Ben?
