Dreamin.....

Ok...so this whole "having a baby" thing has got me thinking of nurseries!! I really do dream about it alot, the only problem is that all this designing and dreamin' should really be holding off until we go home because realistically I can't do much with our house here. This poor baby might just have to share a nursery with daddy's desk, but at the same time, I hope to incorporate a few little lovlies to make it a cute haven for baby. Oh, well, doesn't hurt a girl to dream a little does it? Here are just a few of my inspiration rooms....

I am thinking a little chandalier would be the perfect accent for a little girls nursery. Love this room, although it may be a little too uniform for me & I am not really big into PINK!!! Thinking gray neturals with pops of yellow or coral & blue..........

Lots of color in this one...a little too much for me, but I do like the color palette




These next three images are from Aimee at My Pink Life These are her nursery pics and I seriously LOVE this room so much. Not sure that I would ever attempt painting that tree but maybe some vinyl stick-ons could help me out in that area. And those wide stripes...yup!! I am seriously gonna try that sometime!! Tissue Paper Pom Poms.... actual branch curtain rods.....those adorable diaper basket things that she got from IKEA.....and that amazing changing pad cover which is currently sold out at Diapers.com, cuz I checked & was THAT disappointed cuz I have not seen any that cute anywhere.

And for those of you who care to see a current picture of me with my "slighty-there" baby bump...here ya go.

This is actually at 17 weeks & I am almost 19 weeks so not a whole lot has changed, except after I eat a big meal, then I think I about double in size!! I haven't felt any movement that I can definitely say was baby moving. Little twinges here and there but nothing definite. It will be so reassuring to feel that first kick!! And I seriously cannot wait for my 20 week ultrasound just to make sure that baby is moving around, even if I can't feel it & hopefully if he/she cooperates we will find out what we are having...boy...girl...twins...j/k about the twins part. Pretty positive there is just one in there!!! :)  Been busy sewing maternity dresses...sewed two this past week and I think it is high time to give it a break. I have this love/hate relationship with sewing. I can get so frustrated in the process but I love seeing the final results and of course having another dress to wear.  And once I start..you can forget trying to get me to do anything else....I pretty much have a one track mind until it is done, which can be scary, esp. from the kitchen's point of view!! :(  Speaking of the kitchen's point of view, well....really the house in general (it's not lookin' so good) & since the motivation isn't coming I need to make it happen or it never will. So off to scrubbing floors, cleaning windows, painting screen doors (so we can finally keep those nasty mosquitos out), scrubbing the toilet & organizing the refrigerator (blech...why do I dread that one so much??) I go!!!
