Girliness

I'm pretty sure Chris knew what he was getting in to when he married me. He knows I'm a girly girl. He knows I desire to do (and be!) all things homemaker. He knows pink is my favorite color. So, in my defense, should he really have been surprised when I came home with a sack full of fabrics that look like this?

I don't think so. His daughter is after all at least 50% of me. Certainly she will be so glad that the first years of her life were spent in a pink-zebra print room :)

But all joking aside, I really think this room will end up being super cute! I'm planning on sewing and crafting almost everything on my own. Here are a few of those things:

• paint the crib
• paint the cradle
• make crib sheets
• make bedskirt
• make crib bumper
• sew a shabby quilt
• blankets
• curtain swags
• new lampshades
• crib mobile

Oh, did I mention she's due in 4 short months? And that I work 40 hours a week? And that the holidays are coming up? I may or may not be nuts. We'll see! Anyway, I found a pretty awesome blog with patterns for almost everything that I don't know how to sew, and also some pretty cute patterns for burp cloths and other such things. This will be fun!
