Nursery is mostly ready, now we just need a baby!

The nursery has been a work in progress for a little while now, but we think we are now mostly done! Since Duane only ever has Sundays off, it's been going in bits and pieces, but we are feeling so blessed with all the lovely gifts and particularly all the wonderful bibs, burpers, wraps, quilts and nursery items that Kim has been busy making!

Here are just some of the items, The Lemon and white nappy stacker and matching change table organiser also has a matching mosquito net and cot quilt! This is our ebay bargain change table as well, only $15 and it is even the same colour wood as our lovely cot!

The nappies have all been pre-washed several times, and are stacked ready to go. Duane still wants another nappy changing demo lesson, but other than that we are all set! They are much easier than traditional terry squares, so he is feeling pretty confident. :-)

The teddy chain has a special corner hook, and there is sure to be some more soft toys and teddies added to it soon.

The bassinet is going to be in our room for the first little while, as the nursery is a bit of a distance away, and is shown here with one of the beautiful cross stitches that Kellie has been making for us.


And here is the little (but getting bigger so quickly!) kitty who would LOVE to claim the nursery as her own... hmmm...
She is particularly fond of the change table, but I'm sure once she has the smells associated with it as well, she will not be as keen! She is very well behaved around our friends little baby, so we are hoping she will cope quite well to the new arrival!
All the small sized clothes and bassinet linen are washed and put away ready for a little one, and as Duane is taking a full month of leave, he should have a few days in which he can get the capsule installed in the car, and other such last minute jobs.
So we are very excited that it is only a matter of weeks until we will have our very own Green Baby!
We hope you are all well, please feel free to leave us messages in the comments section, and there should be quite a few new photos soon! Just waiting to get them off the camera and onto something that Rae can use on the laptop, so that posts can come much more often!
Duane and Rae xox
