Rooms and Cribs!

Yay! We're done painting! Now our house is beautiful instead of ghetto! I'm so glad to have it done - now we can sell it a lot easier. Anyway, here's some pictures of the finished product:
Jon helping me scrape wallpaper even though he was supposed to be working on his truck. What a sweety!
Just finishing painting on the gold/tan (Jon's really excited for his BYU room...)

And the finished product! (I forgot to take a picture before we crammed all of the car parts and stuff in there, so you can also see the front seats to our new truck!)

Here's a few from a corner that wasn't cluttered - I think it turned out pretty good if I say so myself. :)

The other exciting thing is that my mom bought us a crib! It was on display at the Wal-Mart she works at and I told her that if she saw any sales on that type of crib to let me know so I could get it, but instead they had to get rid of the display on short notice and sold it to her for $50 off! Then of course she wouldn't let me pay her back, or moreso my dad wouldn't let me, saying that this was baby girl's birthday and Christmas present. I have such great parents! So they brought it up for me, but until today I haven't been able to set it up because the nursery was full of car parts and the weight set from the other room! This morning Jon and I cleared it out and put it together and I just love it! Of course I was so excited that I forgot to take pictures of us putting it together, but that's okay because those would probably be boring anyway. :) Anyway, here it is!

Here's the crib - we don't have any bedding yet, but still - I think it's pretty. :)

Oh, maybe I forgot to mention it came with this awesome changing table!

AND a dresser!

So there's the whole set - it looks like a small area for all of that, but babies are small too so she won't mind. Plus I want to keep the extra bed in there so if we do have her in this house and I need to be in her room in the middle of the night I can take a nap too. :)

So that's it! That's our cute little nursery with our cute little baby furniture! I'm very excited to start getting more stuff. Who knows, maybe I'll even let people play cheesy games at my baby showers if I'm still in this type of mood when they come around! :)

Speaking of which, my side of the family people - Julie is throwing me a shower on Sept 19 at her apartment. She put the invite on Facebook and I'm not sure how else she's doing it, but if you'd like to go then let me know!

Hunter side of the family - Amber and Mary are doing a shower for your side in October (crap, I can't remember the date!) but we're going to try and send out actual invites for this I think. So yeah. I'll probably invite some friends to this one as well, but I know that my friend Katie wanted to throw a shower too (so many showers!), so I might have one for just friends then, but I'm not sure. I'll keep you all updated. :)

I love your new crib and changing table and dresser! That's so fun that they all came together!!! Jas never did have a changing table and his drawers are those plastic kind... He doesn't mind.
Your set is super cute. :)

Man you guys are on top of this whole baby thing. When are you due again? We have 7 weeks left and still dont even have a crib yet. (you put us to shame)

Yeah, we were so lucky that everything came together! I love that it's the only matching furniture in our house! lol.

Sharece: We need to go fishing soon! The only problem is our truck will take a while to fix so we can't really go in the boat. :(

Jen: Come on over! :)

Heather: Yeah I'm glad we're keeping it in there the more I think about it - it was actually Jon's idea to keep it there! Genious!

Jay: I'm due December 21 - and don't worry, we definitely wouldn't have a crib if my parents hadn't got it for us. I can't believe you're only 7 weeks away!!! You guys must be so excited! Any names picked out? I don't!
