Newest Additions to the Nursery...

We received our bookshelf for Addison's nursery this past week and couldn't wait to put it together. Well, David put it together...I just supervised :)


The directions were LONG and tedious, but David was patient and followed them step by step.

Check out the finished product...


Then it was my turn to fill up the shelves :)


The bookshelf doesn't look bright white in this pic, but it matches the nursery beautifully! We used those frames on the top of the shelf for our Gender Reveal Party...one said girl and the other said boy. So thankful for our little GIRL! I can't wait to put some of Addi Kate's photos in them now. 

We only have a few books for her at the moment, but we plan on getting all the fun children's classics to read to her when she arrives.

We also finally hung up the two shelves on either side of the window. Here is one of them...


I LOVE the initials...so perfect! The shadow box has our Gender Reveal Invitation inside it right now, but I plan to display her footprints from the hospital when she decides it's time to arrive. Again, check out that paneling and trim...David and Pops did a great job, I'm so amazed at how pretty it looks every time I walk in the room :)

The nursery is almost complete!! We are waiting on her glider/rocker (which should arrive THIS week) and another piece of artwork. The only thing left after those two items will be her curtains. 

I'll share the entire room and all the details once everything is in place.

It looks beautiful. My son in law is a teacher and when Kohl's comes out with a new set of books, I get several of those. This quarter is Dr. Seuss. A lot of Skippy Jon Jones for the grandkids. For the triplets, You are All My Favorite.

The nursery is coming along so beautifully! I absolutely LOVE the shelves and that canvas painting with her name just COMPLETES the room!

I am super excited that she is coming soon! I can't wait to snuggle kisses on those sweet munchkin cheeks! I just can't believe these 9 months have gone by so fast and she will be here SOON!

Love you, David (aka Daddy Knight) and Addison Kate,
