Isabella's Nursery finished

 Tree painted by Daddy with love

Dresser and Changing table made by Daddy with love (and lots of work!)


Ever since we found out we were going to have a baby, my mind immediately began thinking of all the things I want to build for her. My first project is a dresser/changing table. As she grows this piece of furniture will stay with her. Once she is old enough to not wear diapers, the top bed will be removed and she will still be able to use it as a dresser. When she is older I want to share with her that I made that dresser for her and how excited I was while making it the whole time. I hope that she will keep this with her when she gets older and perhaps pass it on to her daughter. I also painted a tree in the corner of the room for her to look at while she is being changed. No matter how tired I was from work I would always get all excited to finish her room. Monica painted the letters that spell her name on the wall above her crib. It was the finishing touch for a very special room. This room has taken a lot of time, but every time I walk in there I am happy to see the room that will soon have our baby girl in it.

Last Christmas just the two of us


This Christmas will be our last Christmas and holiday before we welcome our baby girl Isabella to our family. A part of us wants her here already, but then we are greatful for just one last month alone, before our world will change. We almost have her nursery complete, so we will post pictures soon! At 31 weeks baby Bella and mommy are doing well, but this last trimester is a lot harder than expected. Read more on Mommy Moni's Pregnancy Blog on left tab. As we prepare for our Christmas, we hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday season so far!
