LittLe MaN'S RoOm

Now that we only have a few weeks left until our due date we're starting to put the finishing touches on our little man's room. There are a few things that I would still like to do to but I figured it was done enough to share. 

When we were trying to decide on the theme of his room all I knew is that I didn't want it to be a "baby" room. I really wanted it to be a little boys room that he wouldn't grow out of too fast. 
So when Cory and his mom came home with this picture, it kind of became the inspiration of the whole room.
I thought it was SO sweet that when Cory saw this picture he just HAD to buy it for the baby's room!
The view from the doorway.

View from the other angle.

We found this dresser for $20 dollars at the antique store in town and Cory & his mom refinished it for me! I am absolutely in love with it! 

A HUGE thank you to Cory's sister Sheri for giving us this amazing crib! 

I feel like me and the little man will spend many sleepless nights in this chair :]

I had to get a good picture of the curtains! My mom made these out of dark brown burlap. I LOVE them! 


Just a few of the little details. I love this quote SO much! His Grandma Shelly had it made for me to put in his room. These are his first pair of boots! His Grandma Janet bought them for him and Cory pulled them out and is just waiting for the day he can wear them! 
Like I said before...it's not completely finished but it's pretty close! We are getting so anxious to show him his room. I couldn't have done it without a ton of help from Cory, Janet, and my mom! 
Thanks everyone!

ANdeRson UpDatE...

I feel like I haven't blogged in ages. We've been pretty busy with getting things ready to meet our little man! First of all we got a "Family" vehicle! Turns out the trusty old Malibu might not cut it with a baby on board, so we got a 2013 Jeep Compass! It was really hard for me to stop driving the Malibu. That car has been awesome & kind of became a part of me. But it's nice knowing that I have a reliable car for me and the baby to travel in.
Here's a picture of what it looks like....

We've also been getting the little man's room ready! We've had SO much help from both of our mom's. They've helped refinish furniture and make bumper pads, quilts, and curtains. Hopefully we'll have it done soon! I'll post pictures as soon as we do.

We are on our final countdown now!!! We are both getting SO SO excited. I can't believe we're this close. We will keep everyone posted! :]
