- Hi guys!
So yes, I am still pregnant.
With my baby shower video,
I loved that all of you guys had such great comments,
I was ready through all of them
and in the video I had asked you guys
if you wanted me to do a nursery reveal,
and guess what?
Today is your day!
So I am so excited to share with you guys
my nursery for my baby girl.
Our goal with our baby girl's nursery
was to make sure that the nursery
went along with the rest of the house,
and to help me set that goal
I worked along side with a great friend,
and designer, Jake Alexander.
He's so amazing and one thing that I love about him
is I could just tell him what I want,
tell him my ideas, and he just gets it.
My goal with this nursery
and just with nurseries in general
is I always like to start with a basic color scheme,
and I do this because I feel like
you don't really know what your baby is gonna be into
when the baby comes into the world right?
So as they get older,
you know I don't know if she's gonna be into butterflies,
I don't know if she's gonna be into fairies,
and once she gets older I can start adding on.
I know when people come into our home
the one that they always say is your house is so calming,
and that is definitely a goal of mine for my nursery.
I want the baby to feel comfortable,
I want the whole environment to be calming.
That's one of the main reasons why we chose these
kind of like earth-tone colors and not only that,
I feel like her name is very grounded
and very earthy, and I wanted her nursery to represent that.
This is my second baby and I feel like I've learned
a lot more in regards to you know,
what's the best thing for your baby,
and for me I love that you know
everything is organic in there.
We have organic sheets, organic toys,
you'll see that there's a lot of wood pieces
and that was really, really important for us,
to just make everything have some sort of organic feel
and if you think about my baby shower,
that was kind of like the same feeling.
You know everything is just really organic
and rustic, and just natural.
I feel like with our careers,
you know we are actors (laughs)
and this business can be extremely chaotic,
so we wanted it to be as calming as possible
cause when you have a baby in the house,
there's gonna be lots of chaos (laughs).
One thing that's important to me in the nursery
is the furniture right?
Number one, there's not a lot of stuff
and I had mentioned that in what's the difference
between my first pregnancy and my second pregnancy,
I've learned not to just buy so much stuff
and for things to be so overwhelming.
You don't need a lot of stuff.
But what I love about this furniture is
this furniture can grow with my daughter
as she gets older.
She can actually use this furniture like in her teens
if she wanted to.
So we have a bookshelf and then we have the changing table,
and what's so great about the changing table is
all those pieces on top you can actually take off,
and it could just be a dresser when she gets older;
I don't have to buy more furniture!
So she's gonna keep this furniture for a while.
But what I love about it again
is the furniture it's rustic, it's organic,
as if you're taking the outside
and bringing the outside in.
The bull.
You'll see a bull in her room
and you know, we don't really know exactly
when this baby is coming,
she's gonna come when she wants to come
but we know that it's gonna be in the month of May,
it has to be in the month of May,
and so she's a Taurus,
and the symbol for that is a bull,
and what that means is strength.
And her name it kind of you know,
means a little bit of that as well
so you can see there's some sort of thread there, tie ins.
I thought that that was a nice touch.
I mean I'm a Cancer and I'm a crab,
thank god my mom didn't put crabs around my room (laughs)
because I don't know if that would look nice.
You'll see there's kind of like two different types
of beds in there.
So there's one which is the crib.
You probably won't be able to tell
but her mattress up under there,
it's organic as well and it's pink.
I thought you know maybe I could add a little pink
but not that there's anything wrong
with throwing pinks in there,
but I'm just different,
I always like to go against the grain.
I want my child to figure out what they want.
I don't wanna just throw things on them
and say you're a girl, so you should love pink,
and you're a boy and you should love blue.
I want them to grow up
and make that decision for themselves.
So you have the crib, then you have this other gadget
that's in there and I'm so excited about this gadget.
I didn't have this for my son Cree
but one of my friends they just had a baby,
and he had texted and was like,
Tia you gotta get this thing called the SNOO.
He said it saved our lives and I was like, okay.
It's this really cool basinet
that looks very earthy so it matches
the theme of the room.
This is how it works.
You swaddle your baby, right,
and then you put your baby in the SNOO and it rocks.
So this basinet rocks on it's own.
(sings) Can we like put in heaven music?
(heavenly music)
Hopefully it'll work for us, fingers crossed.
My favorite part of her room is of course the closet!
The clothes
and shoes, glorious shoes!
That is one thing that I'm passing along
to my daughter already is her obsession with shoes,
I'm like I got that for you baby, I got that.
Organization is really important to me.
When you have a baby there's just so much going on,
I need to know where things are.
So as you can see, everything's kinda like nicely placed
and organized, it's color coordinated.
So on the right it's full blown dress-up clothes.
You know you have her tutus which oh my gosh, so cute.
You have her nice peacoats -
I think that one's one of my favorite.
She has like this red peacoat
and then she has this nice blue coat
that matches with this kind of blue sparkly dress
which I think is just adorable.
Then there's one outfit in particular
and I got this outfit because it reminded me
of a baby outfit that I wore when I was a baby.
It's this floral, cute, adorable outfit,
with pinks and yellows,
cute little white booties with yellow pom poms on it,
and that was what I used to wear as a baby all the time.
And so when I saw it I was like oh my gosh,
I definitely have to get this for her.
And then one of my favorite pieces in her closet is
a backpack that says the future is female.
(snaps fingers)
Okay?
I just love that you know?
I'm a huge believer in
women empowerment and women just you know,
believing in themselves,
and believing that they can do anything
that they put their mind to,
and that is what I want to instill in our daughter.
Also in my nursery you can see that
there's a lot of open space.
So I have this really nice soft rug
and I did that on purpose because I learned from
you know my son Cree that you know kids,
they're always on the move, they're crawling,
that's where you spend most of your time.
You know tummy time, they're learning how to crawl,
they're learning how to walk,
so it was really important for me to have some sort of
open space in the room where there
wasn't just too much furniture, and overcrowding that area.
We need room to grow!
Reading is really, really important to me.
I've been doing it with Cree ever since he was born.
Now that my son is older, he's now reading to me.
It's just so rewarding for me to see the growth
and he's doing so well,
and so books are really important for me
to introduce to my baby girl at a very young age.
So I wanted to make sure that there were some
you know books up there so before she goes to sleep,
or just when we have a little bit of you know
some time together whether I'm breastfeeding,
or putting her to sleep, I'm also reading to her.
It's a great way to bond with your baby,
it's a great way to just start educating your baby
about the world, and stimulating your baby
at such a young age.
Alright guys so I hoped you enjoyed coming
into my home and seeing our lovely baby girl's nursery.
Let me know what are some of your favorite pieces.
I think you're gonna say her clothes,
her shoes, and like her closet or something like that.
But no, let me know!
And you know what comes next,
make sure you subscribe and I'll see you next week!
I mean, unless if the baby decides she wants to come then
but anyway, I look forward to it.
Bye!
