Ben's Finished Nursery

The nursery is FINALLY finished- other than a missing window treatment that is still in the works! Everything is clean and smells like sweet Dreft baby- if that stuff wasn't so expensive, I would wash my own clothes in it!!! Thanks to Nana and Pop for all of their hard work a few weeks ago helping to get everything hung and organized!


These canvases were custom made by one of my most favorite stores in Montgomery- Say It So! They used the pillow sham from his bedding to create them and they turned out better than I could have ever expected!



All of his little Lovies in the crib (yes, I know they can't stay in there once he gets here, but they are so cute!) Every sweet baby needs a binkie (blanket) and buddah (pillow)- thanks sweet Hollyn :)

This was made by Craig's Grandmother Bowman and hung in his nursery- I just updated the frame. So sweet!

Canvas totes and baskets hold bibs, burp cloths, baby socks, hats, ets.- thanks Susie for the GREAT idea! The baby book on top was a gift from Craig- he had it made just for Ben by our good friend Jenny- it was the best surprise!


I LOVE this corner of the room- and it's a good thing I think- because I can see myself spending many hours sitting in it in the very near future! The BEN photo was a gift from Aunt Ellen- so fun! The bookshelf was a gift from Ben's cousins Shelton and Hughston.

The changing table piece was also passed down from Scott, Jen, Shelton and Hughston- it fits perfectly in this part of the room and gives even more great storage! The black and white picture on top is of my Grandaddy, Benjamin Milton Stevens, in his uniform.


So, tomorrow marks week 36 of this journey and we go to the doctor bright and early at 8:15. Well, bright and early for me during summer :) We will find out about how big Baby Ben is right now and get a little better idea of when he might be making his grand arrival!
Another update coming soon with pictures from several of our wonderful showers...
