Project Nursery!

As promised, here's our little boy. I just adore the first picture of him, sucking on his little fingers. So cute!

Saturday we started the nursery. We painted the walls a tan color, though we saw once we added our blue stripes that the tan has an orange undertone in it. But, we weren't going to repaint it! So, below you can see the blue double stripes to try get the nursery look from the Disney movie Peter Pan. The view below is right when you walk in the room. We believe the best place for the room arrangement is to have the crib on that wall on the right, even though it's right there at the hallway. The rocking chair that my MIL used with Jason is the one item that FIL says must stay in the family, so it's where Jason is, the closet is in front of him on the wall. Our thought is that the changing table/dresser combo (which we just heard came in today) will be centered on the window and off to the right of the window will be the diaper genie. (Side note - I may also spell out Hunter down vertically along the right side of the window due to Jason forgetting to add in the second stripe of blue there).

Here you can see the crib nestled against the corner.

Now, for the rest. We think the steps involved to actually trace and then paint a shadow of Peter Pan on the window will be too difficult and that it would just look like a grey blob. So, we've gone this route:

This is actually a wallpaper decal, not vinyl, that we can stick on. It's about 4 feet in length. So, instead of his shadow being stuck in the room, he'll be in there, ready to take Hunter to the place where time stands still. We also want to put up the words "Second star to the right and straight on 'til morning" above the window, as you're leaving the nursery, ready to start the journey to Neverland. This one below is not the exact one we ordered, I am currently unable to locate it, Jason found it. But, it's the basic idea. Just no Peter with it.

And, lastly, we may add a Tinkerbell somewhere too, even though Hunter is a boy, so she can give the Pixie Dust needed to fly. Well, that's the plan for now!
