Our Fixer Upper: Baby Riddle Nursery Design
Time is flying by and I already feel like I'm so behind on getting the nursery ready for baby Riddle! I have made some progress over the last couple of weeks, narrowing down crib options and paint colors for the room though. I have a good idea of the overall style of the room that I am going for and have already started collecting a few cute accessories and vintage decor items. I really am leaning toward a more traditional, Americana style overall and this first inspiration below is one that I keep coming back to.
Our Fixer Upper: Nursery Design Inspo
Now that we know the gender of baby Riddle, I'm ready to start designing and decorating the nursery ASAP! I've been working over the past month to get my former office cleared out which we will be using as the nursery since it's right next to our bedroom and super convenient from all parts of the house. We will be moving my office to the bonus room space over our garage, so it will be bigger and more spacious (with room for a little play area for the baby too)! The future nursery is one of those spaces of our house that I have done absolutely nothing to since moving in, so it's really a blank slate.
Baby Riddle is a BOY!
The secret is out and on Monday we found out that baby Riddle is a boy! Alex called it from the beginning, and has been calling him "baby Woodford" for months now. I thought deep down it was a girl just because he was being way too overconfident! The ultrasound appointment was quite eventful because I woke up at 3 AM the night before with an awful stomach virus! I was still so sick when it was time to leave for our appointment but I was determined not to miss it, so we headed to the doctor with a barf bag in tow (not a joke!). I made it through the appointment and was so relieved to hear the baby's heartbeat again.
We're Having a Baby!
Surprise! The secret it officially out that Alex and I will be expecting our first baby later this year around Thanksgiving. We are so excited and a little surprised too! This definitely wasn't something we sat down and planned but we couldn't be happier nonetheless. Let's be honest, with how busy we are, we never would have felt like "it was time," but God knew that and we trust that HIS timing is perfect.
