The never ending nursery project

I really wanted to wait until we were completely done with the nursery to post pictures...but it is so close now. Last weekend we put up the curtains and hung up some pictures. Now we just really need a rug. We have been looking but just haven't found the right one for the right price. We were at building 19 looking and I found a really nice rug, but apparently even at building 19 prices the handmade orientals are still a couple thousand dollars...oops I guess I should have been looking in the machine made factory reject piles! Hard to justify spending a few thousand dollars on what will inevitably serve as Tobi's burp cloth :)

It is officially Tobi's bedroom now. She has slept in her own room all night since Sunday. I thought it would be a much harder transition since she as spent every night in our room sleeping right next to me in her carseat/bucket perched in the co-sleeper. Apparently the transition was harder on me since I didn't sleep well for the first two nights. It was a little strange even thought I can see her crib from where I sleep. Man if I'm having this much separation anxiety about a hallway what's going to happen when she goes off to college???

So here are a few pics of the nursery minus the rug and rocking chair.
