Baby Room Pictures



If you'll check the baby countdown to d-day, we're a mere 36 days and counting away from meeting our child.

In full nesting mode, the room is finally complete- we've been working on this particular room for over a year (though origianlly it was going to be a guest bedroom). Now we have a guest for the next 18 years minimum.

My interior decorator tells me that despite the fact that there is blue in the room, that the blue is an aqua-ish tint, and therefore acceptable for either gender... so don't read into that, people. My guess is still boy on Jan. 16. Mom, could you post the official guesses?

Wow! Nice place - I'm going to have to ask Christian Alex Gesch if I can stay over.

You are so much more organized than we were. When Rudi was born, he rested on the couch until Grandpa and Grandma Van Drunen arrived with the van and set up his crib, etc.

The room looks great. Grandpa is still saying December ? for a tax deduction.

Kristin DeVries said...

The room looks GREAT! I love the dark crib. One month - woo hoo!

Karen said...

I love the room. The striping is a lot of work, you did a great job. The dark furniture with white doors & trim, excellent choice. And I love the aqua-ish color for Isabella, she'll love it too. Steph, I think you & Karyl should go into the decorating business together.

Kelly Richards said...

Nice job on the room. It looks like something out of a magazine.
