Beaner's Nursery



Thank you again to Uncle Mike Smith for an awesome job painting our nursery. The color (iceberg) came out great and really brightens up the room.

Gigi and I had fun applying the multi-color circular decals from Gigi's friend Carolyn. Kind of like giant Color Forms (for those of you that remember).

I like this picture below a lot.



On the left is the hope chest my dad built for my mom before they were married (37 years ago). Very well-built and long-lasting...the chest AND their relationship.
On the right is the bassinet that my great-grandmother bought when my grandmother was born (81 years ago). She spent her first few months in it as did her sister, her cousins, my mom and her sisters and their cousins, my sister and I and some of our cousins, my sister's kids... And soon our little Beaner will have the honor of sleeping where so many loved ones have slept before. We'll be sure to take real good care of it so Beaner's cousins and kids can enjoy it too.

Gigi and I couldn't be more blessed with our friends and families. We're so grateful everyday for all of the love we've received over the last 9 months. Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for everything you've done and continue to do for us.

Love you all!
