I can understand- originally we weren't going to do more than a crib and dresser. In your situation it must be really hard not being able to settle in due to your move. Just give it time, it will all work out once you are in your new place.

Eventually things started coming together, we never really had a theme or plan in mind. We just started collecting what we liked and it ended up fitting together.

We never set up a nursery for #1. #2 won't be getting a nursery either.
Our kids will have REALLY fantastic rooms when they're older though

@pointybird: OT but I love your username.

@pointybird: It was also in LA Story! Must be a Steve Martin fave.

I'm definitely not anti-nursery (I DIEEEE at beautiful nursery photos) but it's not a huge priority for us. We kept the nursery super simple (just furniture, a few stuffed animals for decoration, and the only wall decorations are his baby shower cards hung on a string like a clothesline) and once our kids are little older (maybe 4?) we'll do some super cool kids' rooms. Wagon Jr. only spends time in his room for sleeping, so I figure the less distractions the better. I actually placed some baseball-themed stuff in his room on the shelves and stuff recently, and during his bedtime routine he's whining for them! Wagon Sr. was like, "big mistake..."

We have the standard stuff in our son's nursery...but it's nothing I am attached to and we'll sell it all in a few months anyway when we move.

I figured I can do his big boy room in something more interesting and fun when he has a preference.

I'm not creative, and wouldn't even know where to start! I love swooning over other's nurseries and get totally jealous of their work. Our kids won't have a fancy nursery. If I was more creative, I'd probably be more into it.

Honestly it took me a while to decide on what we wanted to do for the nursery. We actually only have a crib that's baby. The rest are pieces that will grow with her throughout the years.

I think you need to tell yourself that it's not permenant and that in a couple of years you will be switching it up to a toddler room anyway. Attack it like any other space in your home.

We moved when I was 8 months pregnant, but I still was obsessed with the nursery. That's the first room that I did. But really the baby had no idea anything in her nursery even existed for months.
