Nursery Update


It has been a pretty neat experience, transforming an ordinary room in to a nursery! Yes that's right, a nursery for our little boy Nathan. Just the sound of that, sends chills up my spine. This room will not just be a spare bedroom, but instead it will be Nathan's room! 

We are still pretty far from finishing everything. We still need most of the furniture but we have gotten a lot of the little things.

It can be a little overwhelming for mama. Her nesting instinct has been kicking in, and with that, is not only the desire to have everything clean, but the desire to see Nathan's nursery complete. 

We (ME) have not begun to panic...yet. Samantha's baby shower is coming up soon, and many people have already told us they plan to get us things for the baby. Each time we hear someone say that it makes us feel really grateful and blessed. God has placed some wonderful people in our lives.

Over and over God has proven to us, that if we "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Matthew 6:33" that He will provide our needs. (as one preacher put it, "our needs, not our greeds!)

Turning a Grey Room, Blue!




Mom Leeder and I decided to tackle this project head on!

Being daddy, and Mom Leeder being grandma, we were drafted to this project, by "General Mama!" She said it was our duty! All kidding aside it was a lot of work, but a lot of fun at the same time. It gave Mom Leeder and I time to bond and talk. :-)



Here we go! Opening the Paint

Sweet Baby Boy


No turing back now!

Mom Leeder , was a great help! She painted all the base boards and all the trim that she could reach. Couldn't of done it without you!


We tried to keep Mama out of the room, but "General Mama" keep trying to inspect our work, so I pulled out my respirator so she could peak in and not worry about the fumes.

Can't let Mama and Baby smell the fumes!



Painting Complete!








The original trim for this closet was black and the doors were  an off white
