Finn's Nursery

Finley's nursery has been painted in Chocolate Froth and the chandelier has been ordered. Next step...crown molding and purchasing her furniture. Below is the chandelier that will illuminate her room.

Baby Gender Celebration Dinner

Last evening, our neighbors Kerri and Traye hosted a Baby Gender Celebration Dinner for us. We had the most FABULOUS time and feel extremely lucky to have such wonderful friends and neighbors in our lives. I had to post a photo of Finley's beautifully monogrammed cake so that she can appreciate it when she's older.



















Thanks Kerri and Traye for hosting such a fantastic dinner party. To everyone who attended...thanks for coming to celebrate with us. Much Love + Hugs!!!

The Registry

I have to admit...Babies R Us has always been a bit intimidating to me. So intimidating in fact, that I would try to avoid it at ALL cost. When it came to buying for baby showers, clicking and shipping or "how much do I need to give you" was the way for me! Needless to say...registering was not something I was looking forward to.

Fortunately for me, I had two wonderful girlfriends (Kerri and Melissa) who took time out of their Saturday mornings (7.12.2008) to go with me. They were absolutely amazing! Walking me up and down each aisle with their advice and motherly expertise. Thanks to these girls...my registering experience at Babies R Us was a pleasant one. I would highly suggest taking someone with you when you go to register!!!

Thanks Kerri + Melissa!!! Finley is going to be one happy lil' bambino!! Love + Hugs!

Choosing Color for Finley's Nursery

J and I are currently in the process of choosing a color to paint Finley's nursery. I just finished taping all the paint swatches on the wall so that we can narrow down our choices.

As for furniture, we have decided to go with white. Crown molding and a crystal chandelier might also be added to the room. That's about all we have so far... We'll keep you posted!!


















July 14, 2008 - I think we have a color! Chocolate Froth by Behr. I absolutely love it!! It's a velvety neutral color that will go well with all her "yummy" pastels. The "yummy" look has been inspired by our wedding cake, cupcakes, petit fours and Parisian macarons (who would imagine me being inspired by food?).


J and I are going to the Mart tomorrow morning to check out the children's floor. Keeping our fingers crossed that we find cute furniture and bedding....
