Bailey's Room

As mentioned in the "About Me" section, Mel and I have a new addition, a baby girl named Bailey Edith Williams, on the way. She's not due to arrive until June 18th so we obviously can't share pictures of her with anyone. Instead, I decided I would share pictures of the next best thing...the nursery! 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!
