Jacob's Nursery!

We have been getting lots of requests asking to see Jacob's nursery. As we have been getting unpacked and everything organized, we have finished his room for now. We are still waiting on a dresser we ordered so we can put that on the empty wall and hang a darling airplane quilt that we received as a gift on the wall over the dresser. In our last shipment, we finally got some of the details we were waiting for to put in the nursery.

Jacob's bookshelf is now full of all his books, decorations, nick-nacks and sentimental tokens we have received or bought for him. He even has his first set of golf clubs from his Grandpa Massengill. All of the blankets that so many wonderful people have made him all have their own special basket as do all the toys and stuffed animals. Mr. Bear now has his own special chair to sit next to Jacob's crib while he sleeps. Mr. Bear was a gift from Susan's parents. He is the second generation of stuffed animals to be used as the control subject in monthly pictures next to Jacob to gauge how much he is growing for all to track back home. We hung the chandelier that Suzy bought from Arhaus before we left that even Jason now admits, looks perfect in the corner. Above his crib hangs the special map of the world we received from the Barnett's. The mobile over the crib is full of lovely pictures of Jacob's extended family who can't be here to watch him sleep. The needle point "Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep" prayer which hung in Jason's room as a boy is now in Jacob's room along with the parrot and "I LOVE YOU" blocks that once hung in Suzy's baby room. Jacob has a great view of the Base with the Flight Line in clear view so when he gets older....he will have a fabulous time watching the F-16's take off. The curtains bordering the window came from a Japanese version of Home Depo and they are beige and blue with teddy bears. Enjoy the pics!
