Isaac's Nursery

My favorite things about Isaac's nursery...

* The huge stuffed bear that my brother David purchased for his 2-year-old niece (Elaina) in Sri Lanka and hauled back to Saudi Arabia as his carry-on luggage and then on to Las Vegas

* The cute wallpaper that the previous owners had in the room for their baby son. I never took it down when we used this room as our office because secretly I hoped to have a son sleep in this room someday.

* The wooden toy cars that my Grandpa made, which are displayed on the bookshelf

*The books and stuffed toys that Grandma, Nana, and my Nana have given us through the years

*The adorable "Dream" banner that my friend Kristin made for me and displayed at my baby shower, which she hosted

* The quilts that relatives (Deanna & Andrea) and friends (Kimberlee) have made

* The cradle that my Grandpa made, which I slept in as a baby, all of my siblings slept in as babies, and all of my children have slept in as babies. Soon Isaac will outgrow it and move into the crib

I often sit in this room nursing Isaac or rocking him to sleep and think about how blessed we are to have such loving family and friends. We have so much support and I'm glad my children will grow up knowing that they have so many people who love them

Sadly this is the first time I have ever seen your nursery. I am a terrible friend. Sorry:( It is VERY cute though. It looks magazinish. Nice job. I am sure Mike was sad to get his office taken from him:)...but to put a baby boy.. it is totally worth it!!!!
