And His Name Is ...



Well after all of the suspense. Here you go!

His middle name "Jerome" is in honor of his Grandpa, Joe's dad.

You can call him "Coop" for short!

Finishing Touches to the Nursery!



The mobile is in place and good to go!



We FINALLY got the bed skirt for the crib.



And we got the changing pad cover for the changing table!



All of the toys are ready for the arrival of their new friend!







We got these cool stacking toy boxes from Land of Nod. And those animals guarding the toys were my nephew's Ryan and Brady and they so generously donated them so that Baby Boeckman could have them for his nursery! Thanks boys, I know he will love them and they have a good home!





We finally got a frame for the alphabet poster and we painted it white! Looks great next to the lamp.




Well we broke down and decided to go ahead and purchase a rocker/glider. Its pretty comfy, and we figured it will be something that we use a whole lot! It isn't part of our furniture set, but is ended up matching pretty perfect.





And the final piece of 'artwork' is in place. I decided a long time ago that I wanted to have something with the name hanging on the wall. I found these letters at Hobby Lobby months ago. They were just brown paper material. So I painted them to match the room and added some dashes to match the stitching on the bedding. Just painted them last week, had to have them hidden until we revealed the name. But the secret is out now!

Special Delivery from Land of Nod!





Last week we came home from Lamaze class to a pretty cool surprise. A big box sitting outside from Land of Nod. My parents had been in Chicago visiting my brother Dan and made a special trip to the Land of Nod store to buy some things off of my baby registry.



I love knitted animals and was so excited when I opened this box to find this cute stuffed panda. Who knows maybe this will the baby's best buddy one day : )





Some pretty cool stuff to add to Baby B's nursery!
