Plans for the Nursery/Girls' Room

In the couple of months, not only will we have a brand new baby to hold and love, but Ginny will have a new playmate, eventually. A few months after the baby arrives, she will be sharing a room with Ginny (first she will stay in our room). 

While we do have time until the nursery technically needs to be ready, I am in the nesting mood and want it done now!! As you can see at a previous post of mine:  Prepping for Peanut.  

Recently I discovered that it should be easy for my husband to move the toy chest (which is very heavy to lift) just by pushing it around.  So, once he gets a day off again (he often works 7 days in a row), he will be moving that as well as the changing table/dresser.  That will leave us with not much more to do regarding furniture movement for a while.  

However, I have been planning, via Pinterest, what to do in terms of decorating the room.  Here are a few things that I think will work:
Dream on Me toddler sleigh bed for Ginny, found at Babies R Us
Part of the reason I like the bedding set below is that it is pink, but without being outrageously pink! Also, the owls are so darn cute!!
Nursery-To-Go Sweet Dreams Owls 10-piece bedding set, Babies R Us.
ABC Toddler quilt for Ginny, Pottery Barn Kids
I think the quilt for Ginny would blend nicely with the bedding set for Peanut. I hope. LOL!  I just with they had an owl toddler set but can't find it.  They have it for a twin bedding set, but not toddler. Sigh.

Additionally, we would love to add a bookcase, but until we get the toddler bed, we aren't sure how well that will work. The room isn't very large, and we will likely run out of wall space.  

Luckily, Chris has the day off at the end of this week, so I will put him to work and update our progress then. :)
