Nesting: Round Two ("Faded Ink" It Is)

So in one of my baby books it has a list of things to do each month of pregnancy. Before we left on our "Babymoon," I felt a little slammed all of a sudden. The list items went from simple like "schedule a prental checkup" to serious like "register for baby" and "start thinking about the nursery set up." Well everyone knows I love a to do list so this month we have tackled making room for baby (clearing out the old guest room to be the baby's room) and, as of today, paint the nursery.

Last night we headed to Home Depot to pick out colors. Martha Stuart offers up a nice selection and we took 2 samples home. This morning we were still unsettled so we went back and painted 3 more different color swatches on the wall. After some serious deliberation (and consultation from Aunt Kara) we decided on "Faded Ink." I can't believe that in a few short hours we are finished with the next big step. We have already chosen furniture and will be picking it up later this month...it won't be long before things start coming together! Here's a sneak peak of Baby J's room:

P.S. John Mark is pretty much kicking all the time now. If I were on the show, "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant" I would chalk these subtle movements up to digestion or tummy troubles, but I'm pretty sure there's more than a big lunch in there :)

Here's the second one from this week:
