The only thing missing, is a baby. Now if Melissa would just stop procrastinating... Actually, it's not her fault I'm sure. More likely, our boy takes after his good old dad. I have mastered the art of procrastination for many, many years, but really, who am I kidding, it's just in my DNA.
We were given the most wonderful gift by the builder of our house, Barbara Parker, and her family. She hired a professional artist to paint the nursery for us. Her name is Jessica Rollins, and let me tell you - she is an amazing artist and a perfectionist-she made sure everything was just perfect for our little boy. We had the basic idea of what we wanted, and she took those ideas and made a beautiful room. If anyone would like her contact info just let us know. We would wholeheartedly recommend her.
As you will notice in the pictures, we have finally decided on a name. We wanted to put it up on the wall, and I wanted it to be unique and playful, so I just started cutting up some bamboo and made the letters. I think it turned out pretty cool.

Oh my goodness! Looks so perfect and I would love to bring home a baby, rock him to sleep, and change him, etc. in that room! Enjoy!!!
Wow, guys! Some editor from a big home decorating magazine has got to get pictures of that room! It just needs to be featured in "BH&G" or "Southern Living" or SOMETHING! It's awesome! It's just so unique and beautiful.
