Oscar and his room (for Janae)

Oscar's new room was the first room repainted in his parents "new to them" home. The room was mostly put together before he was born.

Here are some photos going clockwise from the door and dresser on the east wall. The existing cabinets and counters made for a great changing station.

Unfortunately, his room has the only west facing window in the whole house. His parents may be shopping for a sun screen for this window.

I installed the crib bumper pads just before taking these pictures. Nichelle and I started work on them on Monday as she had regular contractions. I finished the sewing while they were checking out of the hospital yesterday.

Nichelle couldn't find the exact kind of plaid she was looking for, but she likes this one well enough. It made it really easy to cut out the pieces. We just measured and then cut along the lines. We used almost every bit of the 3 yards Nichelle had purchased. It's so convenient that bumper pad inserts can be purchased at JoAnn's.

And now for Oscar. Here he is meeting his Grandpa Glen for the first time.

Grandma Laurel also had some more bonding time the day after his birth.

Isn't he the sweetest, chunky little thing!

Don't you just love his hair?!
