I say get some of those wall-cling things (like wall-paper, but not, you know? just characater cut outs) and be done with it. I think the room looks great - LOVING the baby clothes hanging in the closet! You already know this, I’m sure, but babies don’t really CARE what their nurseries look like.

Still call the bank and get the help! You haven't done it for a while and honestly they will work with you. No reason to waste the money. Second: I LOVE the color on the wall for the baby's room. That would make for a really cute jungle/animal theme. Third: YAY, you are back. I have missed not having you to read!!! Okay so few things…

It was YEARS ago, but I did use it, so I pretty much deserve the icky consequences. I will just start saving again and eventually it will happen. I did find one check that I hadn't deposited so I still have some of my savings for it. YAY! Also, I know my nursery isn't horrible and I am really grateful for what I do have. But this was going to be the very first nursery I have been able to have for any of my babies and this is my fourth kid. Just once I wanted a cute baby room. With my first two we were so.freaking.poor. We were in school, in tiny rented apartments. I have done cramped, squished, white walled, shag carpet rooms that suck, frankly. When Matthew died we were in a house but he didn't even HAVE a room because my husband had his business (and inventory) in the spare bedroom and we were trying to finish our basement for Jon's office so Matthew could have a room. He was three weeks early so it really threw us behind schedule. He slept on the floor on a pallet by our bed while we worked to get him a room. Might as well have had the kid in a damn drawer like a depression-era baby. :S I still feel horrible about it. So, I do know it's not terrible, really. I'm just a little bummed and hopefully the above explaination will tell you why. BUT. It's nothing I won't get over. I have a lot of really good things in my life. :) I don’t feel right about calling the bank because I have used my one “get out of jail” card with them already.
