And we shall call him GriFFin . . .

Well our giraffe decal has officially made his debut in the nursery. I have to admit, I really like it. That being said, it was not nearly as easy to install as our first vinyl experience, seen here. I don't know if it was the quality of the vinyl that made it an issue or what, but if felt significantly thinner than the trees and birds that we installed. Not to mention those hash lines. Yes, we had to stick each one of those individually to the wall. Cute, yes. Worth it, yes. I just had to add my disclaimer in case any of you decide you want one just like it. Apparently, the manufacturer's materials are all different. If you click on the picture below, it will take you to the one we purchased. Be sure you ask for a discount from the seller. We did, and she gave us a great deal. It never hurts to ask! 

And in case you are not very familiar with Etsy, there are thousands of different growth charts to choose from! Click on the link below to browse some of their options, or tweak the search for what you are specifically looking for (i.e. a giraffe). Etsy uses Paypal, just like Ebay, which is really convenient.

So here is how, let's call him Griffin the Giraffe, now looks in Mason's room. Welcome Griffin!

(We ordered him in light brown and facing the left.
And yes it measures right- has me correctly pinned at 5'3" and a half.)


Last things to do in the nursery before the big reveal include buying and installing curtains, receiving the bedding (should be here in the next couple of weeks), and of course getting and setting up the crib and mattress. So close! Stay tuned.
