Week 24 - Starting the Nursery

 

Baby Charlotte is the size of an eggplant this week and my uterus is now the size of a soccer ball (according to my What to Expect App on my phone).  My belly area is feeling very stretched.

 

We started on the nursery over the weekend.  We picked out paint colors and got after it on Saturday and finished up on Sunday:

 

Before:

 

First Color:

Second Color:

The bottom color is called "Cement Gray" and the top color is called "Chinchilla".  We will be painting and installing a white chair rail between the colors later this week.  We have decided to leave the closet doors off and will be installing a custom closet organizer and doing either a curtain rod with some sort of curtains in place of doors or just leaving it wide open.  The furniture arrives on Friday and the new carpet gets installed on August 5th!  The nursery will be all wrapped up before we know it!  I can't wait to see it all finished!
