Project #1 - Check! 

1/1/2016

0 Comments

 
Waiting.  Waiting.  Waiting.  All this waiting can really start to get you down and drive you crazy.  Really.  Crazy.  

So Jonathan and I talked about how to make this wait a little easier for ourselves.  We decided to sign up for a couple of social media accounts that connect us with other adoptive families as well as with potential Expectant Mothers (they're called Adoptimist and Your Adoption Gateway - but more on those in a future post)

I've also decided that I am going to work on 2 projects a month for either the baby, or the nursery.  With that in mind, I picked up a project I started last year, but never actually finished!  I present to you ...... (drum roll) ...... the over the crib mobile!

​Ugh - I just realized that it's hanging crooked - so now I'm going to have to go upstairs and fix it.

Close up.  Look at those elephants!  

Coming up next ... painting the nursery!  Maybe ... or maybe the alphabet project for over the dresser.  We'll see.

In the meantime, enjoy this slideshow of the process I followed to make this project.
Love, 
Nikisha

Not flesh of my flesh, nor bone of my bone, but still miraculously my own.
Never forget for a single minute,you didn't grow under my heart, but in it.
