Lydie's Bedroom



I took some pictures of Lydie's room, but my lack of interior photography skills is apparent once again. We had a professional photographer come and take our family pictures. Some of them were taken in her room. They are beautiful, and I will add them to this post. It will be painfully obvious which photos were taken by the professional, and which were taken by me!
Oh well! These photos were taken on many different days over the past month.

I must admit that I have not been good about training Lydie to sleep well in her crib yet. We are visiting family as I type this, and the goal when we get back is to sleep train her to spend the night in her room. So far it has just been about whatever method gives us the most sleep!
We used a woman named Liz from Coachhouse Pictures out of Chicago for our photos this year. She was so great, and we loved her!
The only baby item we had kept after Walker was the crib. We were starting over with everything else. I tried to buy things for Lydie's nursery that she could use all the way through her teenage years. We will see if my decor addiction allows that to happen! I admit it, I love to change things up!

I did save a couple of little outfits from when Georgia was a baby, but not many. The sleeveless white sundress in the pictures is one of them. The other white dress is Lydie's blessing dress.  My dear friend Susan made the quilt hanging over the side of the crib.  Just as I was thinking about how Lydie didn't have a handmade quilt and all my other babies did, Susan told me she was working on this. All my kids have been given a quilt made by someone we love. Susan's quilt turned out so beautiful, and we love it!

Lydie turns her head to the picture above her changing pad and smiles at it so big every morning. I think all the color makes her happy! Her room is a bright, sweet spot, where I love to rock her, she loves to coo on her changing pad, and the kids love to come and look around at her baby things.
