Over the last few months we have started working on her room. Her room was once my office and junk room but, it is definitely NOT anymore. I saw a room on Pottery Barn Kids and we have been trying to copy it. Here is a picture from Pottery Barn:
We were actually able to get the exact paint color. Pottery Barn uses Benjamin Moore paint but it is $45 per gallon. We were able go to Home Depot and get the paint for 1/2 of that...they didn't even need to color match. Home Depot amazingly has a record of all their competitors' paint formulas in their computer.
Our neighbors gave us their old white crib and then we have been VERY slowly getting other things. Here are a few pictures. The color does not quite look the same as the picture above. I took these picture in the late afternoon and the sun was not shining into the window.
Look at this great lamp, Jim picked it out...
As you can see we have a lot more work to do but it is a start. Abby even has her own terrible towel...
We went our friends Bernie and Tony's house last weekend to watch the Steelers game and they had the towel for her. We already knew that she was a Steelers fan but this makes it official.Happy Birthday Dad! We wish we were with you today, see you soon!!

I love it! Abby is a great name (and my cousin Abigail/Abby would agree). :) Good luck on finishing the nursery - it looks great!
