Our Finished Nursery
I love to decorate! While working a full time job as an instructional designer, I worked on this mood board of the nursery. I then went from there creating the baby registry, then taking all the amazing gifts people bought us to decorate the nursery. I hope you enjoy! Please comment and tell us what you think! Here is more baby stuff on Lisa's pinterest page.

- Changing Station to keep your diapers/wipes organized.
- Bottle Station to keep your feeding organized.

These rings use to fit...
I miss wearing my wedding rings. You can put them on a necklace while they are too tight to fit. When did your rings get too tight to wear when you were pregnant?

Nesting
The baby is coming soon! When we purchased the house we were passed down a washer and dryer that worked great, but the dryer made a loud squeaking noise. This noise would have been too much for the baby. Last weekend my husband and I went on the search for a new washer and dryer. I have been looking for sales for weeks and veterans days sale were where it was at! They were delivered and set up yesterday. We tried a load last night watching the close wash and dry in the windows. These LG models even sing a song when they are done.
We also made our first craigs list sale! We put the old washer and dryer on the site Saturday night and made a sale Sunday afternoon. When we put that money towards the new set, we are very happy with our purchase!!
