Family Dreams

We are keeping this little blog to let our friends and family know of our experiences as we journey towards building our family through adoption. We are hoping to adopt from China, and plan on posting any information we can to keep everyone up to date, as well as any pictures that are important. We welcome any questions or comments, and they can be left by clicking the "comments" link at the end of each post. No question is a dumb question!!! We hope you enjoy our journey as much as we plan to.

The Nursery Continued...


Lots of posts today, mostly because I finally have the pictures downloaded from the camera, and because I have time to sit at the computer and not do paperwork! :) Dan thinks it is silly to keep this blog, but I am doing it for myself as much as for our friends and family that are far away and don't always hear what is going on.

So, a little more about the nursery. I am on the hunt for a few panda bears for the room and a lamp. We bought the lampshade that matches the bedding, so the hard part is done. This picture is what the bedding looks like. In the picture, it has a purple shade to it instead of the blue, but it is just the lighting at the store. It has NO purple in it as we wanted it to be very neutral. Unfortunately, the bedding has been dicontinued from the company that makes it (Sweet Kyla in Kitchener, Ont.). But, we were able to contact them and they do have some fabric left and are able to make us a few of the pieces we wanted. We just have to decide which ones. Right now, we are leaning towards the basket covers, a couple of decorative pillows and the dragon fly wall hangings. Ok, can you tell this is our first? Gone just a little crazy, and overboard, but hey, we are excited! Originally, we were going to do a black and white bedding with a hint of pink and green, but it just didn't suit what we were thinking, and really wanted to keep a theme to it.
