You might be wondering where I am on the workings for the nursery... I hate to admit it, but I decided not to do anything until we return with the new baby. I know, kinda disappointing BUT, I'm hoping that by just taking my time looking at fabrics, art, etc the room will be more of what I envision, rather than a room I threw together in a fast, furious few weeks.
Here's a basic mood board of where I'm at right now, but, I reserve the right to continue to be indecisive - so the finished room may end up looking nothing like this. Guess we'll ALL have to wait and see!

Secondly, a few of you have asked if I've heard from the midwife group in Houston with a "verdict" on whether or not they'd take me as a patient. I have, and they will. Great news. However, after A LOT of inquiries to multiple practitioners, I've decided to let Nature and The Man Upstairs handle this - I'll stay in my hometown for the delivery of Baby #2.
I've had a lot of reassurance as to the type of care I can expect, and I'll have a slew of support - not to mention having an aunt who is a head RN in Labor & Delivery at the hospital. Taking every logistical, health, and sanity issue into account, I feel this is the best way to go this time round. Yes, I'll miss my first midwife horribly, but all will be fine, I trust. Thank you all for the sweet and supportive comments you left me regarding this decision - it has not been easy.
Lastly, I'm super-excited to have a potential design project to work on when I get to Texas! It's a clean slate so-to-speak, and looks to be challenging but fun. Here's a few of the idea pics the "client" is liking...

Can't wait to keep you posted!
I'm a decorator, wife, and busy mom of three. I believe in elevating the average space, and bridging the great design divide. I love homes, and aspire beyond builder-grade blah. This blog chronicles our own home projects, what inspires me, and sometimes, just what's on my design-track mind. Taking ordinary homes to higher levels is my little happy place.

Gorgeous picts for clients inspiration. Can not wait to see what you come up with. I love babies rooms I am trying to get up enough energy to do a play room for 2 boys and a girl. My mind is spinning also. I like the right to be indecisive I am going to use that line if you don't mind, Have a great day!! Kathysue

So much excitement in your life! Congratulations on all of your wonderful news. Those are beautiful inspiration pix your client sent you. What fun! laurie
Well good on ya! You'll do beautifully! The nursery will be lovely...Best to you in these coming weeks!
I love the nursery choices so far -- very chic. And I also love that you're taking on a design project while you're in the States. And I'm guessing from the inspiration shots you'll be given free reign to incorporate some zebra print? :)
Can't wait to see what you do with your projects!
congrats on your prospective project! the nursery sounds like it will turn out great — especially if you wind up including one of those poufs. i'm obsessed!
I LOVE those big antlers. I want some! Can't wait to see what you do! Good luck with your home stretch of pregnancy!
Hi Alison, congrats on your delivery decision. Iara and I wish you the very best!
As for the nursery, I would like to offer you any and every seamless pattern or graphic set I have designed as a gift, in case you find any use to them. Just let me know.

Your client to be has great taste, I can't wait to see what you do! Good luck with everything - I know that everything will go beautifully.
Sounds like you have a great plan and a wonderful support system in place for this little one! and CONGRATS on the new job, sounds great so far!
Love the nursery so far! I love that you're taking your time and completing upon return. No reason to stress and hurry. Praying for a great experience on Baby #2. So excited Aunt Cindy will be there...what I would give for that.
Whatever direction you go, I can't wait to see the nursery! Love your ideas so far!
wow, i love that first one!
It's all so exciting!
Love the nursery inspiration. Did you see that Jonathan Adler has "kiddie" zebra rugs now?
congrats on the new job!! i am pregnant myself with our 2nd and i'm loving these ideas. thanks for the inspiration! good luck with everything!
You know, I don't know why everybody doesn't just wait until the baby is born to do the nursery. It's not like the baby actually sleeps in there for a while, right? :) And, I personally make much better decisions when I'm not hormonally crazy and carrying 30+ extra pounds. Good luck with everything!
