Baby Killebrew Nursery Reveal

What a whirlwind of a month it’s been! Nick and I have welcomed our little baby girl into the world and we’re adjusting to life as a family of four. (That’s right, can’t forget about our original baby girl, Roux!) We recently got our photos back from our newborn session (thanks Shayna Yates Photography), so I figured I’d show off our daughters nursery and a few sweet shots of our family that I love!

First of all, the crib! I had to go with the PBK x Rifle Paper Company bedding, of course. (Pro Tip: Make a Pottery Barn Kids baby registry so you can save 15% on bedding from here!) Shop the fitted sheet here. We decided to go with a white crib skirt to match the bed and furniture. The artwork is from Etsy  (Find the bunny print here, owl print here, and deer print here!)– we wanted to get three pieces that we felt would match the floral PBK x Rifle Paper Company bedding.

This little toy holder was once a magazine stand made by Nick’s Pop. We were lucky enough to add two custom “Pop Made” pieces in our daughter’s nursery and they are some of my favorite touches.

Our changing table is one of our most-used areas of the nursery! Instead of just purchasing a changing table, I found this piece of furniture locally on Facebook Marketplace and painted in white to match the room. I added the bow drawer pulls as an extra custom touch. (Mine are from Crate & Barrel, but here’s some similar ones on Amazon.) We also lined the drawers with some gold liner to give them new life!

My changing table essentials? Keekaroo Changing Pad — trust me! We also love this Comfy Cubs Diaper Caddy. We decided not to go with a wipes warmer, but we have been so happy with this Ubbi Wipes Dispenser (ours is in the color Taupe). Another Ubbi favorite is our Diaper Pail — I went with pale blue, but there are so many great shades. What’s most important is that you won’t smell those diapers! We also use the Ubbi Diaper Pail Trash Bags, but one perk of this diaper pail is that you can use ANY 13 oz trash bag. Last but not least, we love our Foam Hand Sanitizer Dispenser and we keep it stocked with Babyganics Foam Hand Sanitzer

This dollhouse bookshelf was a passion project of mine for my daughter’s nursery! I found this one on Pottery Barn Kids, but couldn’t justify the price tag. I stalked Facebook Marketplace for weeks and eventually found a custom one for sale that I went ahead and added my own touches to. We even brought the empty bookshelf to my baby shower and filled it with my daughter’s books as I opened them at the party. It was so fun to finally place this special piece in her nursery. If you’re looking for Disney books to add to your baby’s registry, I have a whole list right here!

This very special sitting area is filled with decades of family memories from both sides of the family. The rocking chair was my mom’s from when she had her first baby — me! I repainted it white to match the rest of the fruity in my daughter’s nursery. A family friend redid the rocker cushions and created a special custom pillow from the PBK x Rifle Paper Company bedding. I also purchased the PBK x Rifle Paper Company muslin blanket for her nursery. I look forward to playing with her on this blanket in her room, but for now it rests of the back of the rocker!

Our rocker’s special end table is another “Pop Made” piece from Nick’s Pop. We love being able to turn on her lamp, feed her bottles, and read to her in this special little nook.

Nick, Roux, and I are so excited for this next chapter of our lives as a family of four.

Our sweet baby girl made her arrival a few weeks early, but she’s still perfect in every way!

Since baby girl sleeps in our room these days, we aren’t using her nursery very much yet — but I can’t wait to see what memories we make together in this special room.

I tried to link everything from our Nursery in case you’re looking for some inspiration for you baby girl! I know I spent hours trying to find pieces to make our room complete, so hopefully this helps some mamas out there.

What theme did you go with for you first baby’s nursery?
