And the day has arrived!!! Thank you to everyone who submitted their beautiful nurseries and adorable babies! There were so many adorable rooms and designs…I had too hard of a time narrowing it down to just 5 so I included 7 of my favorites.

Now it’s your turn to vote on your favorite!

The winner will receive:
1 hour complimentary session from Shey Marin Photography focusing on nursery, baby and/or family, and your choice of (1) 8×10, (2) 5×7 prints and one set of (8) wallet prints. Additional prints and digital images may be purchased at 15% off a-la-carte.

Voting starts right now! Each nursery is numbered 1-7 on the photograph.
Vote for your favorite nursery below the 7th photo. Only one vote per person.
The voting will end at 11:59pm EST on Saturday March 13th and the winner will be revealed on Monday the 15th.

Very impressive! gave me some good ideas!

Today is the last day to enter for the awesome nursery contest!!

Voting will begin on Sunday March 7th - so tune back in to see the top 5 nursery picks and begin to VOTE!!!!!!

And because it’s Friday, and I occasionally remember to do this post, let’s do a condensed 5 on Friday!!

1. I am sooooooo excited for this weekend because my amazing friends and family are throwing me a baby shower! I cant wait to see everyone! I seriously feel like the luckiest girl in the world.

2. Can we just pretend February never existed? We lost so many days of working business due to the snow, plus I still can see the snow outside and it’s never going to melt…I want Spring.

3. I’m at 32 weeks now and am definitely in the nesting stage. Oh and cloth diaper purchasing can become an addiction…so many cute designs and fabrics, so little time.

4. Why do cats seem to throw up hairballs on exactly the piece of furniture (newly washed couch cushions or the pool table for instance) that is the most inconvenient to clean?

5. I have to do our taxes today. Enough said.

Have a great weekend you guys!

I completely and utterly adore your work - Thank you for the inspiration and joy:) (and have to add: my cat threw up on a King Size Quilt….)

Just had to share these today, as I work on proofing this beautiful newborn session. I just love this family!!

I am just loving your bw conversions. Beautiful!

Eeeeek!!! I’ve received some adorable nursery pics and I’m so so so excited to show everyone and start the voting!!! The last day to submit your nursery photos is next Friday March 5th - so keep ‘em coming!!!

And if you didnt see the update on facebook - due to popular demand I’ve expanded the age range for babies able to enter from newborn up to 2 years! So if you have a cute nursery and an adorable baby (which I know you all do!) then send in your pics!

And since no post is great without a photo - here is one that I am working on today that just makes me happy.

Woah there…how did I make it to 30 weeks already!? Actually I’m technically at 31 tomorrow…the countdown has basically hit single digit weeks. I am (like probably every expectant mom thinks) totally and completely not prepared. But I’m sure over these next few weeks I’ll figure out the ins and outs of cloth diapering, what laundry detergent I should get and wash all the little clothes (and crib sheets that our cat keeps enjoying as her nap spot - not cool minnie, not cool), and finally read all of these baby books I keep renting from the library and using as paper weights.

I’m feeling him kick all the time now, and I love feeling his little arms and legs move around. I cant wait to meet him!!!
