Help!

I have been driving myself freaking crazy over Stockton's nursery. I know it really isn't a big deal, and I should be involving myself with more important things. I just can't make a decision, and so therefore I'm going crazy thinking about it all the time. 
For some reason I'm very anxious to get the room put together. I'm only 23 1/2 weeks, so I have TONS of time! I just want to get the crib and bedding quickly. I have looked and looked and looked some more for boy bedding that both Bryce and I like. In the process I've found tons of girl bedding that I like, of coarse. :) Anyway, I've narrowed it down to two choices. One I like, the other Bryce likes.  I'm hoping to get some help in choosing what bedding we should get.

This is my choice. I think it has clean lines and a classic feel. My problem with it is that I think it looks best with white furniture. And I think white furniture can be kind of girly.
Both nursery sets will have Stockton's name written out by a plane like it shows in this picture. The plane would just be a different color for the next nursery set.
Bryce likes this bedding. I think its cute, but it looks kind of like denim. Not that there is anything wrong with denim, I just don't like it. So I would buy different fabric and make a new bed skirt.  With chocolate colored furniture and bedding this is $45 more.

My vote is the first choice..the one you like. I do see what you mean by it looking better with white furniture. Totally understand the mood you are in though....glorious nesting phase. I was totally like that!!! The day we found out Peyton was a boy we started setting up his room!!!

I love the first choice! Second one is cute too, but I love the red! I wish I would have done a little bit of red in Ty's room. And I love the idea of having his name written in the "sky" with the plane. So cute!

I like both of them but would have to say the first one I like a little more. I really like the green and brown in the second one. Either way he is going to have such an adorable nursery.

OH the 1st one FOR SURE! They are both cute and I actually think the 1st one looks WAY cute with that dark crib, I agree..white crib is for sure too girlie!! I'm sure you will make the room so cute either way!! My neighbor makes the cutest stars you could get to match his room..put on a shelf or something?? It sounds girlie but I promise they are cute!

The first one is very cute, especially with the little pops of red!! Love it!!

Yeah, I'm going to go with the majority on this one too... the first one.
Try not to get too hung up on the nursery, though, to the point where you stress out.
Really, the only one who will get to admire it is you - baby won't even know what's going on.
Most important thing is that baby is loved and I'm sure you'll be great at that.

Jamie I like the first one. I also love white furniture. It goes with both boys and girls. And A crib is a one time investment so I would go with someting neutral. Have Fun. Oh and i can't believe that your that far along already.

EA said...

Oh, I think I'm going to have to agree with Marni. The more that I think about it and look at it, the more I realize that a white crib really is gender neutral. Say if you were to pick a beachy theme or a lighter colored theme like the airplane one. It really does go well together. In any case I'm sure whatever you choose will be precious. Let me know what I can do to help out. :)
