A Nursery in Progress

So, the nursery is a little slow going...especially since we don't know whether Baby Mitchell is a boy or girl. However, we have painted and chosen to go with black furniture. I know, it sounds bla, but it looks really cute with the green walls. I'm debating using black and white linens (toiles, ginghams, stripes, etc) and then filling in with blue or purple after the baby is born.

My Aunt Susan and Uncle Ed from Montgomery visited for a long weekend and took us baby shopping. It took all four of us to figure out how to fit the crib (and us) into the car. See the result below. Then, it only took 15 minutes to put 95% of the crib together. The last piece (the sliding side) took another 20-30! I just stayed out of the way (laughing and taking pictures) and Baker supervised the project
