Finishing the Nursery

We spent most of this weekend running errands and finishing up the nursery.   Here’s the photo play-by-play of the nursery projects…
Night 1 – Bookcase – We bought a bookcase at Target and Ryan let me help put it together!

Then I guess he needed a beer break while I was hard at work with the screwdriver.

Putting my feet up after all that hard work!

Finished Bookcase loaded with Cason’s books and toys.

We’ve had this monkey for a long time, I think I gave it to Ryan before we were married.  His hands Velcro together and since he doesn’t sit up well on his own, I thought he was best suited hanging on the lamp.

Night 2 – Walls! – Ryan’s brother Kevin painted canvases to spell out Cason.  We finally got the ribbon to hang them on the wall, along with the puzzles we’d been waiting to hang.
We did lots of math and put the laser level to good use!

Starting in the middle.  One Down, 4 to go!

Hanging the last one.

All done! They look great!  Thanks Kev!

And now a view around the room.

I just love this little area of the room.
