Baby E’s room reveal | WW
I know it’s probably crazy to believe, but this is the first time we’ve really decorated and planned a baby room. Three kids, and only one intentional nursery room. (I just don’t like that word…don’t know why).
Part of it is we were renting a house with #1 and didn’t want to paint and decorate too much. And, with both #1 and #2, we didn’t find out they were girls until they were born, so nothing was gender specific.
This time was different. We found out we were having a girl (and had it confirmed multiple times) and decided she was going to have a room that was for a girl.
But, not too girly. No pinks. Subtly girl. Early on, I knew I wanted the room to be a very soft and gentle gray. It’s actually called calm. Here’s hoping it has that effect.
Then, I picked out the crib bedding, and the crib and things started coming together.
Now? Her room is ready for her to get here.
Along with a place for mommy or daddy to rest for a minute with her if necessary (or anybody else, really)…that dotted minky is so, so comfy.
Well, there’s a little hint, isn’t there? Her name starts with an ‘E’ but that’s all you get. And, that’s all anybody else has gotten either. This E (should have taken a before picture) was from Aunt Emily’s house, but was really dark. My friend and I (mostly the friend) painted it up to match the room and got it up with the pictures.
So, Baby E, we are ready and waiting. We hope you come sooner rather than later. We can’t wait to meet you!
I’m linking up here. Go and visit their Wordful and Wordless Wednesdays.
So cute, and I would wrap myself in minky every day if I could! Come on baby E! Make your appearance!
What is it about the minky? It’s so awesome!
I’m about ready to do jumping jacks to get her to vacate!
So pretty!!
Thanks. I’m very happy with the way it came together.
It’s lovely. I really like the photo canvases on the walls.
We’ve never done up a nursery either. I would like to with our next one if it’s a girl.
I’m loookng forward to meeting your new little one soon!
I’m sooo looking forward to meeting her, too!
The canvases were the final touch!
It looks great! I am so glad you and your friend were able to make the E match! I can’t wait to meet her! I am so excited about my visit in a few weeks! I double checked last night and the SB gift card is for $25…can’t wait to spoil my Blubs and Sampson!
Do I get to be spoiled, too?
The room looks great. The E from Emily looks totally different. I like your calm color choices. Maybe this will help E with any belly issues she might have like Iz and Nat did. Can’t wait to see you all at the end of the month.
I sure help “calm” has that effect on her…and me!
How exciting!! We’re STILL trying to sell our house so baby doesn’t have a room! 🙁 She’ll bunk with us until she sleeps through the night then I guess we’ll put her in Isabella’s room…OR maybe-just maybe, we might actually sell our house and buy a bigger one SOON!
We put the girls together in a room..our house isn’t huge, either, but the two rooms upstairs are pretty large.
Good luck with selling your house!
Beautiful, love all the pictures!
Thank you! I had so many vouchers/good deals on various sizes, so I just went for it!
It looks really great I am really excited to see the additional of your family..Love the color of the room..
Thank you!
E names … hmmm ….
Elizabeth
Estelle
Edna
Ella
Emma
So many possibilities. I’m excited to meet her.
Great room. Love it!
All good guesses, but none of them are right:)
I’m excited to meet her, too.
Thank you, I’m so glad at how it all came together.
Baby E will love her new room and her new family. Prayers are coming your way. Hugs
P.S. I have Emma, Elizabeth and Ellie granddaughters. And all off them are precious. If our David had been a girl he would have been Emily.
E makes great names.
Thank you! And, thank you for the prayers.
My sister is Emily, and my SIL’s middle name is Elizabeth! Lots of good E names.
Awaiting a new baby; what a fun and special time. Love the E picture with the yellow accents.
Yeah…it’s getting to be less “special” and more “uncomfortable!”
It’s actually a bright orange to match the pop on the bedding…but it’s fun, right?
Oh planning a baby room is such sweet joy. Love what you picked!
Thank you! I’m glad it came together in real life…instead of just my head.
Very nice! You have done much better than we have. We are still staring at 4 white walls and a crib!
But, remember, this is the first time we’ve done anything:)
Thank you.
Very nice! I love purple!!!
Thanks..purple wasn’t originally in my plans, but I think I really like it.
An ‘E’ name, huh? Join Edy and Etta, it’s all the rage 🙂
Tell that baby I’m tired of wait and that her room is adorable and she needs to come out and see it!
I know..it is, isn’t it? Didn’t even realize/think about those two sweet girls when we agreed on the name.
I’m tired, too! I’ll tell her immediately!
What a cozy, comfortable looking room! You did a great job! Best wishes to you and baby “E!” and the rest of the family, too. Emily???
Thank you!
Funny, so many people said “emily” I think it’s because I mentioned my sister (Emily) in the post…nope, not Emily:)
Love the room!! So pretty! Can’t believe she’s almost here! Can’t wait to “meet” her and hear her name!!
I can’t wait to meet her, either! She needs to get here!
And, thanks!
What a great room. Baby E is a lucky little girl!
Thank you! We are very lucky, too!
I LOVE IT! That is just gorgeous! Ya’ll did a fabulous job.
Thank you! I will take most of that compliment..hubby just okayed my ideas:)
baby e?!?!? are you naming her after your sister?!?!?
room looks great – so looking forward to seeing her in it soon!!
That has been a guess, but nope, not named after her aunt (or the other one, who’s middle name is Elizabeth)!
This is a great room for your new baby girl – what a beautiful crib. Such an exciting time for you and your family!
Thank you! It was hard to find the crib, but a friend recommended it, it got great reviews and it wasn’t too pricey!
What a nice room! 🙂 Visiting you here.

Thank you.
How are you liking having a Pinterest button? What plugin do you use for the social media icons at the end with an RSS reader link? Random questions, I know. I don’t know many WordPress users that are as nice as you and answer my questions, haha. I can’t believe I started following your blog like three years ago, before I even started making videos, took a big break, and then found you again! Thanks for still being here with your cute children and lovely blog =)
Kindness is the best accessory,
Rebecca
I think I emailed you..let me know if I only did it in my head!
Yeah, I’m not going anywhere.
i love the colors! and the spare bed, that is handy!
Thank you…I am so happy at how it all came together and the colors matched.
Wow! I love the framed letter
