It should come as a surprise to no one that I didn’t quite finish Emma’s nursery before she was born. (Hey, I thought I had 8 more days! And a couple of those were weekend days!) I still have a couple sewing projects that are half-finished, and some photo frames to fill. I still plan to post a ton of nursery photos when everything does get finished, hopefully by the end of maternity leave if not earlier. But today I’m happy to report that I finished putting up the cute wall decals I ordered from Graphic Spaces on Etsy. We had to wait until after she was born to order the name portion, so that just arrived last week.
Here’s what else I’ve done today as of about 6:30 — in addition to the wall decals:
- Slept from 6:00 until 10:00 (!) after Jose volunteered for the 7 a.m. feeding
- Given Emma a bottle 4 times (and Jose’s fed her twice)
- Took Emma to the moms group at the hospital, where we had one semi-successful (!?) nursing session
- Stopped at Sonic on the way home from mom’s group for a cream slush!
- Changed 6 diapers
- Pumped 5 times
- Took a shower
- Made coffee and ate both breakfast and lunch
- Talked to Melissa on the phone for way longer than she probably wanted to talk to me
- Cooked a pasta casserole for recipe club
- Wrote this blog entry
And in about 20 minutes, I’m leaving Emma for some more daddy/daughter time and going to recipe club! All in all I’d say it’s been a pretty banner day, probably my most productive yet! Even if I get nothing done for the rest of the week, I’ll still consider it a success!

I absolutely love the wall decal!
It was nice to talk to you – especially since Erin was out, so the office seemed empty. Hoa even commented that it was super quiet in our office since I didn’t have anyone to chat with! 😉

So cute. What cute design 🙂
