I’ve been a bit hesitant to prepare our house for kids. I guess it is because I am not really sure what age they will be, or if there will be more than one, or when exactly they will be coming. But, per the encouragement of a sweet friend, I am trying to put myself in the mind set of any first time parent. I have been doing that somewhat, mostly by dwelling in the “oh-my-gosh-what-is-going-on?” part of becoming a parent (I guess this would also be known as panic). But the other part – the fun part – is getting to be excited for the addition that is coming to our family.

We have collected a few toys but I’ve sort of written that off in my brain as something for when my nieces and nephews or friends with kids are visiting. Recently though, I decided to take the plunge and I bough this print from Etsy. I think it is sweet and childish.  I love the city theme and the colors so it will be my “inspiration piece” for the kids’ room.  So, that is my first step.
