Theo’s Nursery Tour

Home· Motherhood

After writing my recent post about the DIY Giant Ruler Wall Art, I decided that I should probably share some photos of Theo’s nursery. The idea was to do with a jungle animals theme, but to keep it relatively minimal and simple overall. It all started with finding this cute jungle animals mobile, and we kind of went from there!

We are loving these bookshelves! They clearly actually hold a decent amount of books and are not too hard to put up!

Big fan of this IKEA dresser that we are using as a changing table and this changing pad. I love that the dresser has a built in edge so that things can’t fall off the back or sides. And we love this changing pad because there is no washable cover required. So when it gets messy, we just wipe it down.

This lamp was a 3 am Amazon purchase when I realized that having some softer light in the nursery, rather than the harsh overhead light, would be especially helpful for middle of the night diaper changes. I specifically got this one because of the built in table to be able to put drinks, bottles, books, phones, etc. when we are rocking Theo in the glider.

Also, this watercolor painting was done by my Grandmother back in the 90s! It’s a painting of me as a newborn and my mom. It feels so special to now have it in the nursery of my own child!

LOVE this giraffe basket from Pottery Barn Kids! It’s a little pricey, so we put it on our registry. But I think adds so much character to the room!

Sometimes, boys have childhoods that are centered Sometimes, boys have childhoods that are centered around traditionally boy-ish things like trucks and sports, and while my son LOVES those things, I think boys don’t always get all the whimsy that girls get.

DIY No-Sew Fabric Birthday Banner!! 🥳🎉🎈 This is a DIY No-Sew Fabric Birthday Banner!! 🥳🎉🎈
This is a great project to use up fabric scraps and an old bed sheet with no sewing machine required.
You will need an iron, fabric, fabric scissors, a printer, Heat N Bond, and hem adhesive. Hopefully this tutorial is helpful to anyone trying to make a similar birthday banner without sewing experience. It’s fun to make and I love knowing that we can use this banner for all the birthdays to come! 🥹❤️ #whimsy #birthdaycrafts #toddlermom #whimsicalchildhood

Fighting some kind of respiratory virus while preg Fighting some kind of respiratory virus while pregnant, parenting a toddler, and trying to maintain a carb-conscious diet is not for the weak! Here’s what I ate in a day pregnant: SICK EDITION 🤧 my dietician had told me back with my first pregnancy that your blood sugars are going to be naturally higher when you are sick, so if you are checking blood sugars while sick and with gestational diabetes, it may be harder to keep them in range. Take care of yourself and try your best ❤️ #pregnant #gestationaldiabetes #whatieatinadayrealistic

Because I had gestational diabetes in my pregnancy Because I had gestational diabetes in my pregnancy with my son, I’m being carb-conscious while I wait to take my glucose test at about 24 weeks pregnant. I’m roughly following the guidelines I was given back in 2022, but obviously not monitoring blood sugars at this time since I don’t officially have a diagnosis at this time. Hopefully this gives you some meal and snack ideas if you are being carb-conscious or have gestational diabetes! #gestationaldiabetes #pregnancy #whatiatetoday
