[Before] Black out curtains were one of those things that I was just too overwhelmed to think about pre-baby. Like breast pumps. Both I just felt the need to save for later – when I really wanted to drop money on them. The pump has been purchased and I am so glad I bought one. [...]

Nursery updates are my favorite BERF posts to write : ) Those and bumps, of course! With the closet painting I did on Sunday, the space has a whole new look. Thanks to those of you who suggested we remove the closet door after this happened to the rug: The closet before was beige and [...]
