I've officially hit the third trimester, so it's time to make some progress on the nursery. I posted some early inspiration boards, but we've made a few decisions on colors since then.

I'm a huge fan of bookhou products. I need the laser cut alphabet, the abstract bird mobile, the benches, the kid-sized chairs, and the textiles. Yeah--pretty much everything.

Sorry for the delay on this post. I meant to get it up yesterday, but it didn't happen. Hopefully it's worth the wait. Thanks to baboo design for this nursery inspiration. I don't usually love pink, but this works for me.

Michelle of screamy*mimi created this nursery for her daughter Maeve. I love the rainbow colors, and you can find lots of inspiration here even if you're having a boy.

Check back on Monday for a completely different take on a girl's room.

What do you think? Anything you'd add or subtract?
