You've Got Mail {always brightens my day}

A few days ago I was having a rough morning. It was just one of those days and nothing seemed to be going good. At all. Until... I came home from my appointments and found this on my doorstep.

It was Lilly's glider for the nursery! It was a definite pick-me-up. Mail always brightens my day! Obviously I couldn't carry it into the house myself so I had to wait for Billy to get off work for the big reveal...

I was very excited because I wanted to see the glider in person before officially confirming the nursery paint color. We've decided to paint the nursery yellow with the dark cranberry red, shades of green, yellow, white and damask being used throughout the room. Here's just a brief idea of my vision...

These items were also on my doorstep that same afternoon! These packages knew just the moment to arrive at the Bird residence. ;)

Damask stencil for Lilly's Nursery, very excited about this! We won't be using this color of course. I'm thinking a pearlized paint or white on the yellow wall.

And, A Christmas outfit for next year...Lilly HAD to have it. :)
