Nursery Plans

I spoke too soon! I was really bummed about them discontinuing the sleigh changing table that I wanted, but at the urging of my mother I checked their website. They have the same changing table on there as the one I wanted-it is just a different brand. YEAH! And it is also $10 cheaper than the one I picked out in the store. My only concern was that the shipping would be as much or almost as much as the actual item because that often is the case. However, to my surprise, the shipping is only like $19. So, I am really happy about that. All my stressing was for nothing! God once again provided for my every need! Now maybe you believe me about the power of prayer. I should have been a professional shopper! Ha!

I am also excited to report that I have found some boy crib bedding that I actually like. It is a miracle! So, I think we are going to do an old world theme with ships and sailboats. As you can see from the picture, the bedding has lots of neutral colors in it. It has a whale on it so I thought it might be cute to incorporate that into the room somehow-maybe the Bible story Jonah and the Whale. I have a picture that I bought for Scott for Father's Day that I think we are going to use as the big piece in the room-it will probably hang above the crib or changing table. I absolutely love it, and it has been my inspiration for this room. Below are a couple of pictures of the framed picture as well as a picture of the crib bedding I like. There are a few others I like also. I have not completely decided on the crib bedding, but at least I have some ideas of what I might like to do if we have a boy. I am sure that Tanner really will appreciate not having to have a pink room with pink crib bedding! Ha!

Now if it is a girl, we are all set! I am doing a shabby chic room with pink, white, and mint green. The crib bedding is a combination of stripes, polka dots, and flowers. I am accenting the room with bunnies. I also want to have a tea table in the room with a tea set on the table and bunnies seated at the table. This room is 100% girl; it is very soft and sweet.
