The Room

I have been meaning to put up some pics of Oliver's room, but as it turns out, time flies when you have a new kiddo around.  We went for an international-ish theme.  Stuff we have collected over the years from trips, safari kind of animals, maps, world attractions - you know.

That decal on the wall took a surprisingly long time to put on... We like it though.  Sara's sister made the quilted wall hanging and her mom made the quilt on the bed.  We refinished and re-upholstered the rocking chair and stained the dresser there, which I really like.  The stain is a really light, semi-clear/grey finish so you can see the grain through it.  Sara sewed the changing pad cover.  The room is fun because it is for him, but packed with a lot of our memories from over the years.

It's not nesting

Sara began some sewing for Franklin Maverick tonight and was pumped about it. I asked if this was the start of nesting, to which she said no. She was just enjoying making something for Franklin Felix Maverick (insert other names he has/had(but won't have))...
