As promised, I am posting pics of the nursery and sharing a few of our favorite nursery items.
In the below picture you can see beloved item #1- crocheted mobile from Emily. This is hands down the most helpful thing next to another human holding Eden. It is one of the handful (yes, these can be counted using just 5 fingers) of things that make Eden really happy- like smiley, giddy happy. She is particularly in love with the butterfly. Next to the window you can glimpse a couple of nursery rhyme art boards. These were hand me downs from a friend of a friend and are originally from a gallery in New York, New York. They are dated from the 40's and are perfect in her nursery.

The monogram artwork above the bookshelf was a handmade present from Melissa for Christmas and totally made some of the pictures Jill took of Eden (well Eden made the pictures, the artwork helped :) ). It's hard to tell how great it is in this photo, but the lamp was a vintage hand-me-down from Abigail (from the Kinnairds, from their friend....) that I was tickled to receive.

Well, that's the nursery!

Speaking of babies - I can't seem to get off that subject lately - if you need a baby fix go check out the submissions for best newborn photo at The Babble. WARNING- Some of the pictures show newborns first attempts at nursing and some show babies before the nurses had a chance to clean them. Anyway, they're mostly cute, but don't say I didn't warn ya if you see something you wish you hadn't.
