Totally ridiculous....

I have been awake since 3:00!!!  (It's 7:24 am right this very second..)  I woke up because Sam was snoring, or something very much like it, and because he continued to snore (which always makes me mad) I couldn't get back to sleep and finally just gave up.  Lucky me...

SOO - I've been planning the nursery every since.  Sam decided last night that he wants to do some nursery project this weekend - and he picked the dresser.  And we though that since all the other furniture is so very traditional wood that the dresser could be the one very fun piece in the room.  That involved many "suggestions" from Sam while I thought about how to do it that would make me happy and maybe him too...  The final decision was simple green bunnies with the dragonfly on the drawer fronts and the pretty grasses on the side panels with a green top.  I'm sure I'll post pictures when it's done - unless we aren't nearly as crafty as I think - in which case - we will just end up painting it one color and who really needs to see that?! ha!

But that was actually planned before I went to bed...  

When we went to the Biltmore House, Daddy & Sara took us to their favorite art gallery in town and there were  THE COOLEST metal tree wall sculptures - which we desperately wanted for the nursery - but seeing as how our favorite one was $1,100 - that wasn't going to happen - and we've been brainstorming ever since.  I did find a metal sculpture online that's pretty darn cool but definitely not a tree - but for 1/10 of the price (I know that fraction isn't exactly right - but whatever - it's close) and then very early morning I came across this website, www.rompstore.com, off a random crafting blog I ended up on...it's been a long morning.  And it's REALLY cool - and much larger - which is always better.
NOT $1,100!!Super Cool & BIG!


I wish I had a scanner - I would upload my rough sketch of the nursery that I did around the 6 o'clock hour...haha - it's pretty cool looking - now hopefully Sam will approve all the pretty things I've decided to do on the walls.  He says I can do whatever I want - but I don't believe him.  I think he thinks that he still gets a veto power - but that's not exactly how I would interpret "do whatever you want" - just me...

And what do you know - when you're awake this early - you can see the sunrise out the window - huh.  Pretty pink sky.
