Her room waits

much more patiently than i. I just love the way it looks. I love hanging out in there i love the colors and i can't wait for her to see it. Just thought i would post some pictures of it so you can enjoy it with me. it inspires me so much to make things i never thought of making before. It isn't extravagant or really baby like but it's simple and it's totally me. She can decorate her room the way she wants when she can tell me what she wants.. for now.. it's my room and she'll sleep and play in it :)

Here is her great dresser. I painted it, before pictures here and i just love the colors. It is stocked with every kind of cloths she could possibly need. i even lined the drawers. The basket with the flowers on it is a bag i got on our cruise trip in 2004 when mom, kim and i were in Jamaica.


Here is the green wall with with tile top table that doubles as my sewing and changing table. i love the hanging basket from Ikea. I've got every kind of diaper in there right handy for her 8 or more diapers a day...


The divider covers up the TV and this is her foam mattress Montessori bed. After she is able to roll over and no longer fits in her bassinet we will move her to her floor bed. Mary Torrence made the quilt and mom made the fleece blanket. i love them both!


Closet full of goodies. another sweet hanging basket from Ikea. This child will never be in need!



Here's the orange chair. With my knitting on it. I painted the coat rack and i just use it for all our bags, knitting and soon the diaper bag. i love it! The hat is also from our cruise trip when we were in mexico. I love that hat. It was so crazy to bring on the plane with me but i wanted it so bad. Now Lucy can enjoy it.



I can't wait for this little girl to get here. The Lord is truly teaching me patience and i have never been more ready for anything in my whole life! It kind of feels like a kid ready to go to college for the first time. New cloths, new books, not sure about his choice of major, doesn't know his roomate yet but, soo excited to get started! That's me. I'm ready to get this show on the road. I want to find out what i'm going to love and what i'm going to hate and make a way to love what i hate and keep loving what i love about being a mom to my precious Lucy.
Bring it on! I'm ready..

Oh Joy, I am just waiting by the phone to get the call you are going in! I can't wait to hear your birth story...you are going to do great! Keep positive, be open...we will never forget this time together. Can't wait for Lucy/Chloe swim dates together. Love you!

Love the color! You're right-it is totally an expression of you. Good job, Joy! Everything looks so lively and fun-what little girl wouldn't love that room and be happy living in it?? I'm sure this part of the waiting must be really tough. I check my phone and email pretty much non stop waiting for the word that your time has come. It will be any day now!
