Vivienne's nursery

Vivienne Joy...
you're so darn cute
& sweet
& lovable.

All throughout the Fall you loved pulling yourself up & playing with your standing toys.

You started to stand up in your crib, which meant is was time to lower the mattress.

But before that happened,

I had to take a few pictures of your room

so I could always remember what it looked like!

You have a silk & velvet Pottery Barn crib set.

I love that it's off-white & so soft.

You love to snuggle up to the side of the bumper.

When you were born Grandma Yvonne gave you a lamb blankie

to snuggle up with, Harnack's gave you a bunny blankie with your name on it,

Camy & Ang gave you a pink bird blanket,

The Geers gifted you the purple crochet blanket,

& I made you a big horse blanket with silk edging.

(those baby blankets only last for a few months & then it becomes harder to swaddle

so I knew I had to make a blanket!).

We bought "The Best" rocker & ottoman before Adler was born

& we love it to this day.  It's so big & comfy!

A newborn picture of all 4 of our babies hang on the wall

& there is just enough room to fit a changing table.

It's a tiny room, full of love!

I'm just so thankful that the room has a large closet with built-in shelving.

Everything goes in the closet, including toys & books!

Football season for the boys means lots of playtime on the sidelines.

Viv absolutley, completely loved going to football 3 nights a week.

We brought a blanket & a basket of toys 

& Vance & Viv played outside with beautiful weather every night.

She found the books in the boys' room.

I came in to find her reading & removing them all from their shelves!
