Mikayla's Nursery!!

Some have described it as Ceasar's Palace..... others know it by Mikayla's Room!  The room is finally shaping up to be quite the Princess Room complete with 2 tone paint, crown molding, an incredible ceiling painted like the sky at sunset and lots of fun, bright colors.  I hope she loves her room so much and enjoys making many wishes looking at her ceiling from her little bed.  I love the first picture here showing Mitchy helping Daddy putting his sister's crib together.  He will be the best big brother!

The crib is so pretty and feminine and adds so much to the room with the pewter iron.  A good friend, Jen, is letting us borrow the crib as long as she needs it!  What a score.  The furniture was mine when I was little, but is so sturdy and in perfect condition.  It's nice to have so much storage space!  I picked out the fabric to make the window treatment and seat cushion on the toy box.  I loved all the bright colors, which really ties into the beautiful paintings.  You have to like lots of color for this room.  

After the walls were painted, Mi'Ma and Poppie helped us with the crown molding for the room.  What a difference this makes.  It did prompt, however, the absolute NEED for the ceiling to be painted like the sky with clouds of all colors (oranges, purples, pink and yellows!).  It HAD to be done.  I found an amazing lady, Diane, who exceeded my expectations and did a great job making this room very special!  The ceiling is so pretty when lit up by the crystal chandelier fan.  There is an abundance of lighting options in this room with the sconce I added in the corner, as well.  I love all the little things in her room and can't wait to show it to her very soon!  

Mitch is excited to have his sister right next door to his big boy room!

Mitch's First Round of Golf

Daddy took Mitch for his first round of golf expecting to last just a few holes.  Boy, did Mitch prove him wrong!  Mitch played a full 9 holes and enjoyed every moment.  He got to fill divots, hit bunker shots, rake the sand, drive the ball from the 30 yard line, chip and putt!  We are do proud of our little golf man!

Mikayla's Baby Shower!

Jen hosted a beautiful party for Mikayla and I today.  She had everything decorated so cute and the food was delicious.  Little Mikayla really is set up with so many nice things thanks to all our wonderful friends and family.  Mikayla's closet is really filling up and we can't believe she is almost here.  We are so lucky to have our Aunt Jenny..... thank you!
