& baby makes.. seven?

if you count brewsky, bailey, benson & roar we're about to become a household of seven come november!

tyler and i found out we were expecting on march 5th and our lives have been a whirlwind of excitement and anticipation ever since! our little boy, cohen ryder, is set to arrive around novemeber 11th.. just in time for the holidays!

between work, summer projects, and baseball tournaments we've been doing our best to get cohen's room ready before the school year starts. of course, we happen to have the shortest summer break ever in cabell county this year so its definitely crunch time!

i designed the bedding at babybedding.com and i highly recommend it to any expectant mommas! they have a great selection of bedding options and fabrics. you can make changes to any bedding set they've designed or you can design a bedding set from scratch from the massive selection of fabrics. i loved the brown modern zoo print so i built the set around it. tyler and i wanted something fun that worked for a nursery but also could grow with him.
this is stock photo of the bedding from the website

i got a lot of nursery decor ideas from this blog. you can filter and search by gender, color, theme, etc. its where i got the idea to paint the wall where the crib would go...

the squares turned out better than i ever could have imagined; even up close they look like a decal and not hand painted. the whole process only took about 3 hours; measuring for symmetry and putting up the tape was the most time consuming part.

next up: new hardwood floor and furniture. both of which, should be finished this week. tyler just came back from a baseball tournament in indianapolis so he's taking a day of R&R before starting to lay the new floor tomorrow. so progess is being made!

baby countdown:
17 weeks 4 days to go!
