Good things come to those who wait...

Holy smokes, yesterday was a design success!  My seven and a half month, pregnant friend finally decided she's ready to get started on her nursery! About time, right?

So here's what we're up against:

Want to know what else I love about Katie? She's totally cool with me showing off her "lived-in" room. No way would she make me promise to let you guys know what an amazing mom, friend, sister, wife, neighbor, etc. she is despite her teeny tiny tendency to be a bit messy!
