Baby's Room

We think it's done...


Here's the crib my parents bought us!!! It goes from a baby crib, to a toddler bed, day bed, and a full size bed! Talk about extending a dollar! The bedding we purchased from JC Penny's with a gift card from our wedding...Thanks to Aunt Sandy, Jim, Julie and family.


Although it's not a great picture of the dresser, it matches the crib. After looking ALL OVER UTAH and on-line for this dresser, Mark and I found the *last one* in the state! The gorgeous pink outfit was knitted for us by my God Father's wife, Joanne. By parents sent us the baby book for my birthday and all the goodies in the basket came from Jon and MarKey who also by the way painted the room for us...Thanks Guys!!!


As you can see, we kept the room fairly neutral in terms of paint. Mark's worried "she" will turn into a "he" when the baby's born. With that being said, the car seat/stroller is neutral, and we'd just have to change the bedding and curtains.

I've Learned That...

I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance. And you need to take it.

I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision.

I've learned that every day, you should reach out and touch someone. People love that human touch, holding hands, a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.

I've learned that no matter what happens or how bad it seems today, life goes on, and it will be better tomorrow.

I've learned that, regardless of your relationship with your parents, you will miss them when they are gone from your life.

I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and a late friend.
I've learned that making a living is not the same as making a life!

I've learned that if you pursue happiness, it will elude you. But, if you focus on your family, your friends, the needs of others, your work, and doing the very best you can, happiness will find you.

I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands. You need to be able to throw something back.

I've learned that I still have a lot to learn.
