I would get a light weight Ryker name sign to put above the crib. It would be cool if it lit up ( softly) so you could use it as a night light, when do 2 am feedings!!! Super adorable!!

[@eveblack5643]

His name over the crib would be cute. Mini cribs are great! I had one for my granddaughter. Perfect size for small rooms.

[@kirstylecouilliard1132]

Such a cute Nursery. I think you should hang his newborn/family photos above the crib once he is here. Maybe get a wee lamp for beside the chair for evening/night time.

[@deniseminin3993]

A big flat mirror above the crib would make the room appear even more spacious and bright and fun looking into for everyone

[@kristengrimm7340]

There are supposed to be special bags for the diaper pail, well usually there are special bags. The room looks good!! 😊

[@nodaknorskie1486]

I agree or get the lavender scented small bags just for a bit of extra protection.

[@SJPLilac]

It would be cute to put the baby's name above the crib. You can actually get large letter stickers that go on walls. There are all types of fonts and colors. That way it won't be too heavy above the crib.

[@srudy1958]

A small light by the chair to use when you feed the baby. Not enough to wake them up but enough to see what’s before you. Love the crib!

[@TraceandLydia]

Yes we have one but for now it’s in my bedroom since he’ll be in our room for the first couple months:)

[@kremmiz1]

Also a really narrow table of some kind for a water bottle, phone, whatever you might need for yourself.

[@truthmomEmma]

I used a salt lamp for mine! Just enough light, but very calming and dim.

[@donnacoker7716]

You actually want to wake them up, because feeding them always lulls them back to sleep and they need to eat enough so they are consistently gaining weight. When breastfeeding my babies, I always had to change their diaper or take off their Jammie’s between sides, because they would want to sleep when they actually needed to eat 🤗

[@rileyporterfield3857]

@donnacoker7716 not necessarily. I breastfed four babies and never woke them. Their “dream feeding” was more than enough. All four were always 90-99th percentile on their growth charts

[@kcotjo]

My suggestion for above the crib is to simply paint either some polka dots or stripes or get some type of wall sticker that can be removed. You could also paint his name on the wall above the crib in a color to match your other color scheme. I always get nervous when people hang something above the crib in case it should fall. Will you use a sound machine? Also perhaps a floor type lamp that you could have by your chair for reading or just a night light of some sort. The room looks so cute. Great job pulling it all together!!

[@machellebird2415]

When you get his newborn photos done, hang some prints over the crib. Of course, high enough he can’t reach them when standing and very secure on the wall. Congratulations on baby Ryker!🍼😊

[@autumnhoward1276]

The nursery looks so sweet and cozy!💙 I’d put some Scriptures above his crib, maybe in a decal, or framed nicely. Decals don’t have the possibility of falling onto the baby and there’s a lot of really nice looking ones out there, especially with beautiful Scriptures. I’d also add a small light over by your chair to have for night feedings and when you’re putting him to sleep. Plus I’d either return my one big curtain or cut it in half and sew it into two panels. Just some suggestions, it all really looks great as is! Blessings to y’all as you are counting down the days until Ryker is in your arms, it’s coming up so fast!

[@rondastothers472]

Neutral is so calming. It’s my choice too. I added in some soft greens for my granddaughter. I would put his name on that wall.

[@melissagillis991]

The nursery is so calm and cozy! Y’all did a great job!!

[@berrygeri]

I have been in to interior design for years, & your nursery is beautiful. The one thing I would definitely put above the crib is a mirror, to give the illusion that the room is way larger than it is. Many ways to anchor it safely! Love it

[@lwhite3485]

Way too risky to put anything heavy above a crib. Even anchored into studs- why risk it

[@marjoleinx5285]

You have created a beautiful nursery! Idea for the wall: perhaps three large illustrations, for example in the theme of the baby shower? On Etsy, they often have very cute illustrations like a surfing giraffe, or animals in a Volkswagen van.

[@Sunnydreamer1470]

Love that idea!

[@wildflower008]

Love how Lydia has the vision and Trace has the ability to make it happen. You two make a great team.❤

[@shawnfactor3284]

You two are going to be FANTASTIC parents!

[@user-or6br7yt4p]

Love the nursery and your neutral palette that can grow and change with age and growing family. I second the peel and stick wallpaper or they have fun decals that would work well with Ryker’s name above the crib. Thank you for sharing.❤

[@erinshannonandjonathanmich3932]

It would be fun to see a video where Evan and Carlin stop by to see what you’ve done with the place ☺️

[@morrisdiary3401]

i was thinking this too

[@amynotbohm1626]

That's a great idea!!

[@mariellemansfield6815]

Love the nursery set up. Maybe above his crib you could have a nice framed Bible verse?

[@sgajsgaj]

Your nursery looks nice! May I suggest pushing the curtain panel to the wall (where the dresser is). It will visually make the room larger rather than cut in 1/2 when keeping it in the middle of the window.

[@shaina2]

Yes, and bring the curtain rod to the ceiling. (You may need to buy longer curtains.) Bonus tip: buy 4 panels, 2 for each side. Doing all of this will make that room pitch dark at night! You block out light from all sides. And it’ll really make the room look cozy :)

[@Angela-ks1pm]

The wall behind the crib would look amazing with a light green paint color or paint a mural on the wall. Beautiful nursery!🙂

[@tammyrockhold6111]

I so agree!

[@donnarapp7699]

The wall behind the crib would look cute with a set of 6 framed prints. Also, a peel and stick wallpaper and then you could put his name over that. Nursery is so cute!

[@kimbaxter6135]

Your pregnancy photos would look good over his crib. And I love the way you did the nursery. Your so talented Lydia. Love y’all

[@lowryfamily06fe]

Love it 💚💙 The wall above his crib needs a name display with a splash of color (green, browns, and blue maybe) and then maybe some pictures if it’s not big enough. If you do it a little smaller you can add a second beside it later down the line for the next baby

[@jodytigges1830]

Lots of the toys could be stored in baskets in the living room. Toys for much older could be stored in the shed. A small lamp on top of the shelves under the window for night time feedings would be nice. Some bold animal pictures on the wall above his crib or his name in bold primary colors would break up the neutral a bit. Don’t forget a baby monitor. There is one called lollipop that you can bend the “stick” portion to wrap around a crib rail, book shelf on the wall etc. it pairs with your phone. Such a lovely nursery in a just-right size room.

[@mbz9057]

You definitely make a great team with Lydia’s creative ideas, and Trace being able to accomplish it! When your children are older, you could definitely make money doing that for others! The room is just beautiful! Cannot wait to meet baby Ryker♥️🙏🏼✝️‼️

[@teresaamlin9066]

I would put a small, dimness light over the chair so when your feeding Riker, changing him. With a dimness light it won't wake him up like a bright one. The nursery is so cute!! Any little boy would love to have a room like the one you designed for him. I love the soft colors.

[@karenseay2225]

Y'all need his name up there on the wall and a couple of cute little boy things to either side of his name. I absolutely love the nursery.

[@OceansideAuthor]

Oh it’s so darling ✨ Y’all are so sweet. I think a wooden sign with his name (painted the same grey color as the wall molding) would be sooo cute! You could even add some lights so it could shine at night and create an ambiance. Love y’all, byeeee. 😉

[@carolwhisenhunt7504]

So sweet, cozy and comfy looking. I love the neutrals. Love the Bates.

[@patfudala4745]

Nursery is cute. I think a light in the room on top of the book shelf or behind the chair for nighttime feeding. Baby usually sleeps in your room for a few months.

[@karenhoehn1897]

Beautifully decorated! You’re a talented photographer, a black and white of Ryker would look so good! Cutest couple!☺️💫

[@jorozco5560]

Above the crib, I'd wait until he's born and get some photos of the three of you! 💙 Everything looks absolutely beautiful! I love everything!!

[@adomaa86]

You've utilized the small space very efficiently. Love how simple and bright it is. Such exciting times it is for you guys. ❤️

[@kimwilliams1812]

Beautiful baby room. I always worry about pictures over cribs. It is scary to think that a picture would fall into the crib. I think it is dangerous, although that just me. Great team work.

[@kandacekirsch]

We used a mini crib at first too due to space! A great thing is that the mattress also fits perfectly in most pack n plays so for trips and such it’s so nice to have a safe comfy mattress :)

[@crownofsplendor2023]

Cute room, love the parents, can’t wait to see the baby! If you paint, or know anyone who does.. have them paint something specifically for him.

[@janetlrye1742]

The nursery is beautiful! Maui is an angel!! I love him. I’m a cat lover and y’all are the only people on KZbin who have a cat!!! Thank u for loving him ♥️

[@ashleighburroughs3581]

Absolutely love the nursery!! I think you should put above the crib a sign with his name, or once he's here some newborn photos.

[@mrkid3363]

Maybe put a cresecent moon and stars on the wall to match the mobile! Very cute nursery, can't wait to see videos with him in it!

[@lisabray3699]

You two have done such a beautiful job on your sweet boy’s nursery! It’s easy to see he is so loved already! For over the crib, how about wallpaper or a wallpaper mural? They have lots on Etsy & IG & make them proportionally to the size of your wall.

[@susanwine4804]

Hi there Sweet Lydia and Trace. You Both did an Awesome Job on Little Rykers Room. I Love the Cute Baby Bed and how You decorated Everything. I think His name in different colors would look good up above the Bed and a Little Lamp near the Changing Stand. God Bless You Both Always ❤💙❤

[@chessyharris6200]

I think a Canvas Family Photo would look good over the crib. The Nursery looks amazing. You two did a great job.❤

[@ruthfoss8463]

The nursery is perfect! I love how you have natural elements and the soft sage color. I’m so excited for y’all! If you put a dust ruffle around the crib you could put things under there in nice storage boxes. That will work for a good while. You could just do Rykers initials on the wall above his crib. RBC? Maybe in the natural wood like the shelves and crib.

[@mirandacooper1159]

I LOVE the nursery!!! Lydia has incredible vision for ideas.

[@melissanorfleet5268]

Ryker’s room is so adorable! I would put his newborn photo shoot pictures above is crib or his name.

[@tammygonzalez9027]

Beautiful nursery!!! I think if you paint a mural or use wall decals you won’t have to worry about anything ever falling into crib. Many cute ideas on Amazon. Can’t wait to see baby Ryker. God bless!

[@robinnieto2703]

What a beautiful room for Ryker. He’s already so loved. I think it would be nice to have a picture of the two of you at your wedding above his bed and then one of Trace with Lydia pregnant, then add one of the three of you after he’s born.

[@CheapsKate77]

I’ve never seen such a tiny crib, but it’s perfect for a tiny room!

[@rosethornbury1221]

You may want to use the top shelf basket closest to the chair for nursing essentials, burp cloths, water, cream, hoka. Anything you need to easily grab while nursing.

[@Carebear-hw3jr]

Hobby Lobby has some VERY cute options for nursery decor!!!

[@cindland]

Lydia, you make everything look lovely and put together. Enjoy your new little guy!

[@lealuby884]

Ryker's room looks adorable. Can't wait to see Maui seeing Ryker for the first time!

[@randomroz545]

Take pictures of things in nature or outdoors architecture that naturally are shapes of letters in alphabet to spell out his name. Or create your own art on 3 or so 8x8 canvasses. There's always wall decals that are peel and stick that can easily come off no affect to the wall and are inexpensive. Like a cute character or animals for little bits of color pops to the room. Looks great!

[@joannwood183]

The nursery is so cute !!!! Love it !!! I would put his name behind the crib , but I wouldn't hang anything heavy . I just fear something falling down on baby .

[@user-oz4yu6su9q]

Yes that happened to my necessary baby.

[@deelong2862]

That almost happened to my baby, and he could have EASILY DIED!!!! GOD, I TRULY THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! Even something light falling on baby could scare or smother the baby!

[@amandamendoza4181]

I would do a peel and stick decal on the wall above crib. Easy to put up and change or take down. I’m imagining a mountain scene. Love his sweet nursery!❤

[@sheilasmith4922]

Love the nursery you did a great job can’t wait until he gets here

[@leslielousma7913]

Beautiful nursery! Back when I had my four kids, no showers and had hand me down crib, rocking chair, etc from my husband’s family. We still have that rocker that is now 60 years old as it was my hubby’s.

[@isabelmorgan9941]

Guys you look so adorable, first time parents to be, excited and scare of not knowing what you need to do at the same time. Lydia it is so sweet to see how you have read about and thought of everything. Book shelf, cube organizer, chair….you are a very nice young lady and I wish you both the best. May God bless you and baby Ryker. I am excited when you guys will film the birth of the little guy. Thanks for sharing your journey with us.

[@angelabrockman7816]

The room looks so good and I love the mobile and crib. 💙

[@jannwilkins3774]

It’s looking great. Can’t wait for your little guy to get here. You both are going to make amazing parents.❤️

[@rhondafloyd1728]

Y’all are amazing to watch work together trace you are the kind of man that little boys need in there life to teach them

[@debralines7232]

What a cute nursery. It’s a small room but you did a great job. A suggestion for over the crib, don’t hang items that might fall in to crib. I think a small mural. Something with his name. In my grandson’s room they actually got sticker with his name. Xander in a baseball theme.

[@lovegrows7814]

Love the nursery!! You’re so talented. I would either go with his name, or a beautiful large photo of him, or all three of you when he makes his entrance into the world ☺️

[@kimbaxter6135]

Your pregnancy photos would look nice over his crib. Y’all did such a great job on the nursery! Love it. 💙💙💙

[@Martlin]

Love that nursery. Lydia sure has a sense of style and function. Trace did an awesome job putting it all together.

[@theresamcclure7333]

It’s so lovely watching you grow as a family ❤❤❤ watching took me back to when I was first pregnant.. it’s such an exciting and beautiful experience… just wait until Ryker is here.. the euphoria, love and just awe at the miracle you created!! ❤❤❤ from Australia 🇦🇺 😘

[@casandrazyph1754]

The nursery is perfect and adorable..Only thing is you have to get a different blind for the window without string..I know the baby won't be mobile for a while..Just best to be prepared..You guys are doing great.

Yes! I had no idea until I saw the Oprah episode where the little boy what had it around his neck.

Looks so cute! I would put a splash of colour with his name above the cot!

Definitely his name over the crib!!! Everything is BEAUTIFUL!! ❤

Sweet nursery! Baby Rykers name I think would look nice there and maybe some of Lydia’s pictures or family pictures.

It's beautiful Lydia and Trace ❤ I think his name would look really good there or when you get your pictures done you can put a black and white of you Trace and Baby Ryker both would look so good💙💙💙 Im so excited 😁 I sure do love y'all your going to be such beautiful parent's...💙👶💙💥🙏💥 🤗🙋‍♀️

[@kimberlywhitehurst8656]

Loved all your choices. Maybe add a surf board like one on the car above the crib. I know whatever you decide will be great. 😊

[@peggysuegiggles9383]

love the nursey. i would not be in such a hurry most little kids sleep with parents until they are around 5 months. thanks for sharing.

[@cynthiadavis5515]

The nursery turned out so beautiful! Ya'll make a beautiful couple I can't wait for your video introducing baby Ryker to his nursery. ❤

[@bobbijeffries1748]

You need to continue the theme from the mobile and look for “wallies” or self stick wallpaper that have blue skies, clouds and sun. ❤️👍

[@shannonreilly1118]

You could put the crib where the short end is on the wall so you have more room for the chair.

[@TexasbyStorm]

Adorable! One of those little baskets would be handy to put burp cloths and snacks for mama for when you're sitting there feeding.

[@kimberlywilliams9866]

Perfect ideas!!

[@TeressaJ1960]

🙋‍♀️❤ You're right, Lydia! So cute! Good job , both of you. Maybe put something fun to dream about on the wall, like animals, or boats!

Beautiful job! Love the wainscoting, it really adds charm to a small room !

I have never seen such a tiny crib. It does fit good in that small room. The baby will outgrow that crib before you know it. Baby grows fast the first year.

[@333nanette]

I’d run an air purifier in there since you’ve got two months. All these new products need to “off gas” from the factory paints, glues, etc. they work pretty well.

[@anitafreeman9845]

I would put pictures above the bed! It will be so classy. Also a basket with books beside the chair will be handy. It is all looking so cute and cozy!

[@judithparshall2077]

[@tamarafricke2672]

Super cute! You could always do a Bible verse above the crib. Could be decals that you can take off later without damaging the walls. Also you need maybe a small shelve/ storage next to the diaper pail to put extra diapers, wipes when you need it. Something they surprise you and dirty a lot of diapers in a short amount of time.
