Naomi's Crib


Over the past few months I have had a lot of fun creating spaces for Naomi. This weekend I put finishing touches on a lot of her spaces and took several things out of their packages finally! It is a mix of old and new. We did it very economically for the look we got, I'm actually pretty proud of it. We have been very blessed to have many special people give us and her so many wonderful things over the past few weeks to help us start our life with her. Trust me, those thank yous are coming! So on this very special episode of Cribs (what happened to that show, I loved it?) we show you where Miss Naomi will chill.




She is still sleeping in a crib according to the updates we received. The front comes off of ours and we have a little guard rail to replace so either way we are set. Many people think I got the crib from Ikea, it actually came from walmart.com and was a very good deal. Also a little deerhead hook to hang a bag with her stuff on or her jacket. The print above her bed is her Chinese name. The little mushroom on the bookcase is a night light.

Last Naomi Update

We received what will likely be our last update on Naomi before we travel! We received four photos, I had to significantly crop at least two because her foster mom and foster sister were in them, the quality on those two was a little lower. We are lucky to have some of her foster parents however to show her later. She is still rocking her hair and her attitude. She hasn't grown too much, still going to be a shorty. They described her personality as smart, outgoing, and lovely. She is talking and is good at expressing herself. She likes attaching to others, not sure if they said that because they thought that is what we wanted to hear, hoping it is true. We asked if there were things she did not like. She does not like eating birthday cake. I found that pretty hilarious as the first thing listed. Adam is thinking maybe ice cream cake she will be game for. She doesn't like thunder or setting off firecrackers. Not sure if they are letting her light firecrackers or she doesn't like the sound of them, I'm thinking its the latter. She also likes animals and there are currently cats and dogs in the house it sounds like, and she likes them. Looks like Ester, Timmy, and Baxter are safe. We should be letting everyone know when we are traveling very soon!




Places to go, people to see



Can you handle this much cuteness? I doubt it.
