Nursery Decor

When I found out I was pregnant with Gianna we were still living in our old home. It was then that we decided that we were quickly outgrowing our "starter house" real fast. So we listed our very first home on the market. That was in December 2011, after months of being on the market and very little action it came time to realize that we most likely were going to become a family of 5 in our town house. This meant that Ava and Gianna would be sharing a room. We went ahead and started making plans for a "shared" girls room, but then out of no where in the end of May we got an offer. With this out went the plans of sharing a room. The sale was on pins and needles for months, we were hoping to close sometime in the end of July but that didn't happen, something else did though. Miss Gianna Grace decided to come 5 weeks early and was born July 24th. We had NOTHING prepared for her but Frank got to work and unpacked and set up the baby gear and we were good to go. Then came August, we literally found out on a Tuesday night that we were not only closing but moving into our new home the sane Friday!!! It was a whirlwind, we actually moved on Gigi's 1 month birthday!!
Well long story short but now almost 1 1/2 months later we are finally starting to feel more settled in and at home. We moved to a larger house with more rooms and more to decorate!! And as far as decorating goes, I really haven't done much!! There just hasn't been time, between getting back into good health, the kiddos starting pre school and doctors appointments for upcoming surgery (I'll post separate about this, but Ava is heading back into the OR for her hand this month .
I decided I'm going to take it nice and slow as far as decorating, and do it one room at a time. The room I'm starting with is Gianna's Nursery! Since the girls no longer need to share a room, I decided to take one of our 4 bedrooms and give it to the baby. Since we have a boy and girl, I get to enjoy also decorating a girly and boy room so I wanted to do this room as a true nursery!!  I actually had bedding that we bought a while ago and never used. It is the "Stork Bedding" by Pottery Barn Kids. It is no where near ready being set up, but I'm posting pictures and going to sort of show this as a work in process.

So here goes:

 The bedding and curtains.
 Her crib, I need to figure out what to put over the crib, I'm thinking some sort of decal, but not sure what.
 The glider which all 3 of my babies have been rocked in.
 View from the door
I didn't get a great shot, but you can kind of see her 3 big huge windows and 1/2 moon

 her dresser which I need to find more decorative items for
Awesome double closets which I'm hoping to add some sort of organizer too. I know Gianna will LOVE these in the teenage years! lol
I'm thinking some sort of bow/hair clip holder for that area between the 2 closets.
So there you have it, the beginning's of Gianna's Nursery!
I will be posting pictures of the rest of the house as the weeks go on too.I'm in desperate need of lots of decorating advice!!
Have a great weekend everyone!
