2010, The year of Miss Elizabeth Cohn Phillips

Can you believe that we only have 2 and 1/2 months before Libby is born? It's hard for us to believe and we have a lot to do before then! The nursery is really starting to take shape. My mother in law and Josh found a Hoosier cabinet that we're going to use as the changing table. It's really the neatest piece. It needs some work, but other than needing some new paint, it looks fantastic. We have our chair and ottoman ordered and it should be here in February. We're in search of a rug if anyone knows of a really great place to buy nursery rugs. We're thinking of a cream shag rug from West Elm. Something that is soft on our feet when we go in there at all hours of the night. I am very excited about a little project that I am working on for Libby. We bought a white IKEA lamp and I'm going to glue artificial pink and cream peonies to the shade. I am still in search of the perfect flowers, but have a lead so I may be able to start this project soon.
My last day of school is February 26th. I'm counting down the days. 38 days of school to go! Josh and I are very excited about having a baby in the house to love. He is so good with Colston and Phillips, I can just imagine how good he'll be with his precious little girl.
