I’m gonna get a pen and put it on top of your head and see if it rolls off.

All summer I have been driving Jeremy crazy about getting the nursery set up.  He keeps reminding me that our baby girl isn't showing up until October. He is right, but he let me win anyway.  Here are some pictures of the nursery.  It is pretty much done. All I want now is to get the curtains hung, but I figure I'll give Jeremy a break for a bit.

The changing table and baskets are from IKEA. I made the artwork on the walls. We got the mirror from Tai-Pan awhile ago, but I thought it would look great in the nursery

. 

Jeremy owned that giant chair before we got married.  Words cannot describe how comfortable that chair is.  I'll tell you right now though, it is really hard to get out of when you have a giant stomach that likes to get in the way. I was beyond excited when Jeremy set up the crib.  I LOVE white cribs.  I think they are adorable.

I bought the mobile on Amazon.  It was my big splurge.  I couldn't help it though; it is simply adorable.  I made the pennant banner out of left over fabric from the crib quilt.

I put my sewing skills to the test with this room.  I made the crib quilt and the elephant pillow.

This cute rocking chair was given to us by Jeremy's mom.  It was her's when she was a little girl.  I absolutely love it, and I know that baby girl will too!

The rocking chair was a garage sale find for only $8.  I spray painted it because it had definitely seen better days. The hamper I got from TJ Maxx, and the elephant mask I made in high school.

I love how the nursery turned out!  Now I just need my little girl to show up and we will be good to go.  Only 2 months left!

You do know, honey, that garbage doesn’t actually talk at all unless it’s on Sesame Street.

Jeremy and I went to a yard sale and scored this beauty:

I was so excited to find such a cute chair.  The seat of the chair was not is great shape though, so I decided to cover it. Here's how I did it.  It was crazy simple!

At Walmart they sell a pack of foam that works perfect for chair cushions.  I put the seat of the chair on the foam and cut the foam to size.

After, I draped the adorable fabric on top of the foam and the seat of the chair.

I turned it all upside down and stapled away, making sure that I pulled the fabric tight as I went.

Here's the finished project.  It took me about a total of 15 minutes.  Talk about a great/easy project!

I think internships are a Communist plot.

Today was my first day of Spring Break.  To celebrate I headed down to St. George to hang out with my family for a couple of days.  One of my favorite things to do when I visit home is to go run errands with my mom.  Today she took me to a Habitat for Humanity Restore.

I had heard about Habitat for Humanity, but I had never heard of their Restores.  Basically they are stores where businesses, schools, people, etc.  donate their old stuff, and they resell it.  This place had some pretty cool stuff.  It had a bunch of old furniture, building supplies, and other nick-nacks.  I was super jealous that St. George had one of these stores, but come to find out there is one in Orem and Salt Lake.  There are more all over the country, and in Canada!  Here's a short video about the stores and how they help Habitat for Humanity.  Check it out if there is one close to you!
