Lauren's Room

Last week Mom visited to help me with Lauren's nursery. As usual, she whipped everything into shape. I love how it's coming along! For now, I'm just sharing a photo of one side of the room - the one with the daybed and two bookcases. We hung framed photos and artwork above the daybed and organized books, toys, family photos and other miscellaneous baby items on the bookcases.

I love the wall of frames. We have several family photos, a couple of book covers and two custom pieces - one with Lauren's name and one a quote from Teddy Roosevelt (the current quote is a placeholder for now until we agree on the final quote we want to frame). The only near-term thing left to do is to print wedding photos from Mom and Dad and Jim and Lavonne for the frame that holds three photos. We put our wedding photo in the middle and will do our parents' wedding photos on either side.

On the left bookcase, we have a cousins photo area with photos of Stacy with Olivia and Graham, Whitney with Corey and Toby, and Claire with Emerson. We also have a framed photo of Dan's Grandma and Grandpa (dad's side) on their wedding day.

The right bookcase houses toys, books and baby care essentials. Tomorrow, our building engineer will be re-connecting the radiator in Lauren's room, so currently the glider is pushed up against the crib, hence why I didn't take photos of the other side of the room. Hopefully the radiator project will be quick and without any major issues...and then I'll take photos of the whole room to share!
