Our Nursery!

I can't believe it is already Friday...seems like I was just posting about our dining room! This week over at Kelly's Korner it is Show Us Your House Friday: Nursery/Children's room. This is the only room that actually have things hanging on the wall. When I started planning the Nursery, I knew that I did NOT want a theme. I'm not real big on theme nursery rooms like transportation or baseball. Now, there are some baseball and transportation things in the room but no theme. We used light blue and navy colors with a few spashes of RED (my favorite color)!
This is the sign that is on Trigger's door. Ladies in Waiting in Shreveport, LA made it for me. When I picked it up, they asked me if I had a western theme in the nursery. Ummm, no! For those of you that don't know, Trigger was my mom's name (her nickname). Her real name was Wilmoth Dewitt Stevens Hood. When she was very young, she was nicknamed "Trigger" because she was "fast as a trigger". And, can you blame her for wanting to go by Trigger...who would want to be Wilmoth. So, my son is named after his grandmother.

When you walk in the door, this is the view of the room.

Our bed is a convertible one but I don't think we will convert it. Instead, we will probably use all Trigger's furniture for another baby (hopefully) and get him new big boy furniture! Our bedding is from Pottery Barn and I LOVE IT!


This is Trigger's changing table.

His armoire and table and chairs.

These are the pictures above the table and chairs. My neices, Abby and Chelsea, and nephew, Corbin, painted these for Trigger. I LOVE THEM and they are probably my favorite thing in the room.

Our glider and ottoman. We have rocked many hours in this glider. I'm not sure if you can see it but the red pillow in the chair has a vintage baseball patch in the middle. It's an Astros baseball. We LOVE the astros! My MIL made this pillow for me and I love it!

Close-up of the bookcase. I'm a teacher so of course Trigger already has alot of books!!!!! And, these aren't even all of them.

And, Trigger's closet. These are his "mall" clothes. His play clothes are in his dresser. "MALL" clothes/shoes is a term my mom used. We always had "mall" shoes that we were allowed to wear on the weekend or to parties. When Liz and Daddy got married, Liz thought it was very funny that we had "mall" shoes!
