The Sweet Smell of Progress

After the deer episode, things in the world of Bungy have been relatively calm. We went hiking in Panther Canyon this afternoon and it was nice enough the whole weekend that we were able to leave the back door open during the day so Bungy could come and go as he pleased. I think we achieved happy dog this weekend.

While Bungy was outside protecting the backyard from the deer, Reagan and I were finally able to finish the walls in the nursery. We will probably still end up hanging some prints and whatnot and I definitely plan to hang a shelf of some sort to put all of the kinder toys on. But getting the decals on the wall was a BIG accomplishment.



Hopefully, Baby Chunn will enjoy the robots and elephants and giraffes as much as Reagan and I do. Our goal is to make the nursery as gender neutral as possible. I know once we find out the sex we will start accumulating certain types of things, but for the most part I want a boy or a girl to feel at home in the room. I think it will make for a more well rounded person :)

We also put decals on one of the walls in the guest room/game room.



All in all an eventful weekend for us. Next weekend we are off to Ikea to check out the different linens they have for the crib. From what I saw on their website, I think I just might find what I am looking for.

I am also glad to read that I am not the only expectant woman with killer breath. Thanks, ladies!

Ikea also has good shelves for nurseries. Both of the shelves we have are from Ikea. The standing bookshelf fits vertically or horizontally and braces to the wall (a must).

Those stickers are super cute. You guys did a nice job applying them.

The stickers look great! I really like the elephant and giraffe one. Where did you order them from?

We got Isla's drawers and Wardrobe from Ikea too. I love Ikea :)

We ordered the 'stickers' from www.whatisblik.com. I love this website. We had to practice some self control and not order everything we liked.

Ikea rocks!

That site is awesome. We've been looking for something for our front wall for five years...this may be the answer.
