So Long, Farewell

We no longer own our Rancho Domingo house. So we went to fix up a few things and say goodbye. I was surprised about how unemotional I was about the whole thing. We are officially settled in our new house and our new life and I recognized this old house for what it was--four walls and carpet. Except for this room: The kid's room. The one that went from storage, to an exercise space, to a guest room, to finally fulfilling its purpose: hosting sleeping babies. The paint color is different, but the feeling was the same. And I will never forget it.

It's been bugging me that I have had "blog pics of nursery" on my To Do list for weeks now, so-here you go...this is mostly for posterity's sake, so I understand if you don't care about this, but I do just happen to think that this is one of the cutest rooms ever :)

view from the door

I'm not quite done with the curtain...still need to iron it and add cute buttons and fix the ribbon, but you get the idea

eventually there will be two of these. but hopefully not for several months because it is a small room!
The left hand wall...I am most proud of this one!

pics hanging above the bed mostly because I had extra pegs and needed something to fill the space. Somebody more artistic could probably have done a better job, but it's good enough for me!
everything on this shelf is something I owned as a baby.

on the right wall. if anyone has any ideas for book ends I would appreciate it :)

as you can tell, Rachel has a lot more stuff than Adam so far-poor guy.

This is the port-a-crib in our room where they will sleep most of the time when they come home. We're not really supposed to use those cushion things, but for right now it helps me imagine what it will be like when there are 2 bundles sleeping in there. And they say "a" and "b" which reminds me of the good ol pregnancy days :)

So there you go-hope you enjoyed the tour!
