Mattie Anne's Nursery

Mattie Anne's cribDaybed
Kinda of a tight spot for the rocking chair, but it actually works a lot better than you would think from the picture!Framed picture of the dress that my mom and all of her siblings wore home from the hospital, as well as, Jon and me. It wasn't in a condition for Mattie Anne to wear home but we are going to get a picture of her in it!
Shelf on the wall, with Mattie Anne's dedication dress hanging on it.
We haven't set a date for the dedication yet!
Mammaw Goldman's vanity from the bedroom set in the "back bedroom." Momma, Daddy, Jon and Matt all helped and refinished it! It looks absolutely beautiful. Momma and Daddy refinished the chest of drawers and the bed whenthey were here after Mattie Anne's birth.
(And yes that is me with the camera taking the picture in the mirror, Ha ha!)
Isn't it adorable!


Here are the pictures of Mattie Anne's Nursery! I think all that was missing in these photos was the rug...A green 4x4 round rug came in 4 days before Mattie Anne arrived! Just just in time! The daybed is in the nursery because we figured that with all the guests and only a 2-bed room house this would solve some housing issues. Matt and I could stay in the nursery with Mattie Anne (the day bed has a trundle) and our guests could stay in our bedroom. Well, in preparation for 2 sets of parents we put a bed up down stairs in Matt's study. Matt decided that the bed could stay because now that he is in clinical rotations he doesn't spend much time down there studying (it used to be 4-5 hours a day) and that it would be ok to boot the couch! It ended up that when my mom was here along with Matt's parents, the reason we needed another bed downstairs; they ended up staying in a hotel. We ended up staying in our room and Momma stayed downstairs. Then we stayed downstairs when daddy came into town and Momma and Daddy stayed upstairs (only a full bed downstairs!). So, needless to say, the daybed hasn't been used, except by Matt's brother and sister in law one weekend when Matt still thought that setting a bed up downstairs was a bad idea! Ha! Well, if nothing else the day bed has come in handy as a place to swaddle Mattie Anne and to fold clothes!
