Spring Cleaning

We began this week with the intention to do some deep spring cleaning around the house, just get rid of that dust buildup on the plant shelves and all the sticky fingerprints on the doors.  Sometime in the first half hour or so nesting set in, at least for me, I don't think Jeff ever gets excited to start moving around furniture and setting up things we don't need for many weeks at least.  I am thankful he will not deny me when I just want to change things up a little, though he would like to sit and watch some basketball instead.  He really should put that on the family calendar, how am I supposed to know that there are important games happening?  Anyway, we are so hoping to have our referral soon and since we were already moving furniture around the room to clean under and behind, why not put up the crib and while we are doing that we really should paint the wall behind it first, am I wrong?  So, we did all that and we are excited to have the nursery all set up.

Our son, Jacob, the future paleontologist, has wanted us to do a dinosaur nursery forever, but with 2 little girls we just didn't feel that fit.  So, we are now meeting his request and have our little dino bed all set up, hopefully our referral is for a boy :)  Jacob even donated a couple stuffed dinos to the decor. 

We also had to purchase a stuffed Ty Baby Frog to match the others in the house.  Jacob has an elephant, Elliot, since he was born, Camryn a puppy, Penny, and Bailey a hippo, Hannah.  We named our new edition Franklin and the kids just can't keep their hands off him, here he is:

This nursey area is on one side of Bailey's room, she is so excited to share her room.  So, one half is dinosaurs and one half is The Frog Prince.  Here is Bailey's little girly side:

It is so fun to see things all set up in the room, now we are ready to see the little boy who will live there, hopefully soon!
