Oliver's Nursery Preview

Nathan enjoying our new bright orange glider (the dogs are obviously enjoying it as well)

The finished product. Nathan and Pawpaw Carbo put up the beautiful chair rail. And this is our crib, the side table, and some artwork we chose. That chair rail divides the room into an aqua blue wall and a chocolate brown wall. The chocolate brown is actually chalk board paint, so little Oliver can be a little artist when the mood strikes him. 


Here is Oliver's dresser and hutch. It took forever and a day to arrive, but it's so nice and well made I think he'll be using it through high school.

Baby Showers and Cake

 Adorable decorations by Jennifer at Alexandria baby shower


Nathan and I in front of our baby boy wreath at Baton Rouge baby shower

Gorgeous cake from Baton Rouge baby shower. Ambrosia bakery copied my nursery decor and colors onto the cake and put petit fours on top that looked like baby blocks. 

And lastly, my wonderful coworkers got these beautiful (and extremely tasty) petit fours for my last day at work. Those are baby booties and rattles on top.

Thanks everyone for the wonderful showers. We are now officially prepared for the arrival of little Oliver because of all your generous gifts. We can't wait for him to get here!
