Hello! My name is Scott Williams and this is my family...so far. (I say "so far", because in approximately three weeks we will have a wonderful new addition who will go by the name of Bailey Edith Williams.) Pictured are my wife, Melanie, and our dogs, Duncan and Molly (Molly has the scary-looking eyes). We currently live in Greenville, SC, but are both originally from the North Alabama area. I graduated from Auburn University in '01 and '02 and, while she graduated from Birmingham Southern University, Melanie holds a strong allegiance to the University of Alabama. Needless to say, things get interesting at our house every football season.
This truly is my inaugural blog. Technology hasn't quite passed me by yet, but no one is going to accuse me of being on the cutting edge either (I don't even have a MySpace page!!!). However, at the urging of my mom for more pictures, I am going to attempt to keep a semi-interesting, semi-current blog running.
So, for my family and friends, who I know will be checking this blog (mainly my mom and sister), and for those random bloggers who happen upon my postings...Welcome!!! I hope you enjoy.
View of the nursery from the doorway. I have to give special props to Mel and her mom for the curtains and bumper pads in the crib. Mel designed them and helped her mom make them.
This is the other side of the nursery. You can’t really tell from the above two pictures, but the walls are painted a light yellow color. They look pink in these two pics.
The two parents-to-be waiting patiently for a reason to actually use the crib.
Here’s a better shot of the crib sheet and bumper pads that Mel and her mom made.
In addition to the curtains and crib items, Mel made a number of other items for the nursery using nothing but her imagination. The bookends with Bailey’s initials on them are really cool.
She also designed every detail on the lamp shade shown here and painted the butterflies to put on the walls.
She also took a few pictures of flowers that she or I had previously taken with our digital camera and came up with this cool design to go over the changing table. Maybe if I concentrate really hard on the pretty flowers I’ll survive the diaper changing.
This is the nursery closet. I had to build shelves inside it just to be able to store some of Bailey’s stuff. She’s not even born yet and her closet is already packed!
