Fry Sauce & Grits: It's a girl!!

It's a girl!!

We found out on Friday, that we will be having a baby girl in December!  I am delighted to be able to share all girly things with this baby.

We've been holding out on buying anything, thinking of names, and how to decorate the nursery until we found out what the sex was.  So, it has been fun the past couple of days to begin to think more seriously about the future!



Now that we know she's a girl, I put together a mood board for the nursery.  I have always loved mermaids, and used to love to pretend to be one in the pool every time I went swimming.  

I adore this inspiration from Laybabylay


I have been using olioboard.com to create my own mood board because although I want the nursery to be girly, I'm not the hugest fan of pink everywhere, so I want to put my own twist on it.  It's a work in progress, but this is what I have so far.


Any advice to a new mom on the nursery?  I want it to be clean and peaceful, but have some fun, quirky twists.
