Adventurous Little Lad: Nursery Board

Okay, so I thought I’d watch a girly, girly movie on Friday night and veg out.  Instead, I sat at my computer in my office and came up with nursery mood boards.  I couldn’t help myself.

I’m 100% certain that we’re having a boy which still leaves me with a 50% chance of being correct. I set up a no holds barred nursery.  Didn’t look at prices.  Ignored dimensions.  Dismissed the fact that certain items were discontinued or sold.  I guess this is a bit of a dream nursery.  But a true dream nursery would include wallpaper, which has been ixneighed by the hubby due to the whole rental factor.

Rationale – This particular nursery seems to nod towards an old world, outdoorsy, farmey type of a little lad.  Old world – Graham loves more old worldy items in decor and I think baby will be like his dad.  We both like the outdoors and clearly the baby will have no other choice but to like it.  Farmy – well, cause animals are cute.  The 4H Leader sign?  My dad was a 4H Leader for my brothers and I have such great childhood memories of all of our pigs and goats around our home.  Plus, my fondest memory of my dad and Graham was a night when we came up with an elaborate scheme to one up 4H with the 5Fers club.  A night we all laughed until it hurt.  A night our baby will surely one day hear about when we tell him stories about Grandfather.
