Photo Update!

I finally took a few shots this morning, so instead of my normal updates/rantings, you get to see the crazy nursery! After 2 showers and very generous friends and family... Especially Meri, Annie and Laura... we are getting quite stocked. Still need things like bottles and sheets, but I have another shower in Charleston next weekend, so I'm sure I'll be more than set then. Needless to say, for now, we have a ton of awesome decorations and clothes that are sure to keep Baby Dean in high style.

First up:

Hand knitted blanket from Laura, burp cloths from SB and sweater from Max with the beautiful handmade pillow from Annie (Grandmother nickname TBD).

Next, a corner of the crib:

Sports stuff from friends and family. Notice only 1 Redskins item among all of the Steelers stuff... Thank you Nina and Pete :-) And yes, we have even more Steelers items, but they are in the closet, haha.

UPS delivery from Pat & Nancy:

Swanky Pack-n-play all set up... Will come in handy for our Christmas in Erie this year!

A corner of the nursery:

Toy chest which is rapidly filling with musical toys, lots of awesome books... Including the Shel Silverstein's from Laura & Nate and 'One Love' from Fred & Tami :-), Baby swing with a few ugly dolls and a beautiful hand painted 'Baby Dean' sign from Aunt Mary!

And finally, the closet:

Just a glimpse at the organized chaos that is the baby room. The closet is surprisingly packed, but thanks to Gigi it is in working order for now. Pack-n-play, bouncy seat from Matt & Skip and Annie's nautical decorations are all in there too!

On a totally unrelated note... I am kinda sick of facebook. Hearing about the election and Chick-fil-a is what it is, but does everyone need to post some kind of smart-ass picture/quote about it!? Ugh.

I shall continue to post baby crap that no one cares about instead... Enjoy :-)
