Grady's Sweet Room

Grady's nursery is finally coming together! It's about time since I've had his crib since oh...Octoberish? I got started on his nursery really early and have been working on it since and it's still not 100% complete - but complete enough to bring our little guy home next week! The curtains are on backorder and there is art to be hung, but I'm sure Grady's not gonna care.

I picked out Grady's bedding before I was ever pregnant with him. As most of you know, I was adamant about not finding out the sex of my baby when I did get pregnant 'one day'. Since I didn't want to find out, I found this aqua and beige bedding that I thought would be perfect for either a baby boy or a girl. Well, the pregnancy hormones changed my mind about most things, including finding out. However, when shopping for bedding, I kept going back to the same one so I finally just ordered it!

Chris and I got super lucky to find the red rocker from Pottery Barn Kids after Christmas. I love the color red and I'm quite convinced that Grady will too, so I was tickled to find it. Red is my favorite color and it was also my Papa's favorite color (who was also named Grady) so I'm convinced it will be my Grady's fav too :) It took some talent tying in the red chair with the rest of the room, but with Mom's help, I think it all works now!

When Chris and I saw the beach bathroom at Pottery Barn Kids, we knew we had to have it for Grady's bathroom. We both think his bathroom is so much fun.

Grady's room is all I could have ever imagined. I wanted something different that didn't look like a picture straight from a catalog, but then again, I'm sure everyone says that. The only thing I didn't get to do is put up a chandelier. Chris said no way Jose to the chandelier because that was 'girly'. I didn't agree, but needless to say, I lost that argument...

Here are some pics of my almost finished nursery and bathroom.

Grady's Room when you first walk in - aren't the shoes precious?? I'm so glad my friend Courtney made Grady "I am fearfully and wonderfully made". We know that he is :)
