painting and decorating the nursery (things went wrong) | leighannsays weekend vlog 

The way Lucy looks at you is just the sweetest thing. You’re such an amazing mom, and the new baby will be so blessed to be a part of your family! So excited for y’all! ❤️

So happy for you guys! How sweet that Lucy will have a little sister 💜 I’m so grateful you still vlog and share with us!

“2x2 inches CRAZY” 😂😭 I love the authenticity and can’t wait to see the update! So sweet that you had a sunshine theme for Lucy and a star theme for this baby girl! Complimentary but both shine so bright.

I think the stars are adorable!!!

Congratulations 🩷👶🏼🩷 Lucy is going to be the best big sister!

Love the colour of the nursery! Congratulations!! ❤❤ You have the cutest family ever!

Another lucky baby girl!!! 🩷 Oh, I'm so happy, I also have two girls, younger is almost 6 months and sister love is the best thing ever! 🩷🩷 Congrats!

I LOVE the bedroom! The color and the stars...right up my alley. You guys did great, so far. ❤

I’m SO happy and excited for your new baby GIRL!!

So happy for you guys! LOVE the look of the new nursery, so creative!! ✨💜

I love the new nursery❤. Lucy looks so happy and so adorable. ×× end of video and you're not happy...it will come together. Maybe very soft colored stars ??? Can't wait to see what you come up with!

Boy o boy! Well can’t wait to see the new designs in your next video. Happy Mother’s Day! 💐

I absolutely love the concept of the stars but I agree that they were looking a bit harsh after Day 1. Too many of the big pointy ones clustered together, not enough tiny dispersed ones. It looks a LOT better at the end of the video ✨💜✨ I can't wait to see how it turns out in the end! I know it will be beautiful. Your new little girl is so lucky to have you as a mom!

I'm with you. I think the stars look more like a playroom/reading room. LOVE the purple though!!

Omg that is like the color I painted my sons nursery 20 years ago it was called fog hat lol loved the room so happy for your family Lucy is going to make a great big sis! And Grant you are amazing I know we don’t give you the appreciation that you deserve! And Leann you are an amazing mom!

Yay another girl! Lucy will be a great big sister 💕💕

Congratulations!! Everything is coming together, so exciting! 💕 I have to ask where is your living room rug from?! It is beautiful

The stars are great - okay take a few down but they look great!!!

Don't change the stars! I love them so much.

What a fun video! A cliff hanger 😄 Excited to see the changes.

I LOVE THE STARS!! 🌟 🌟 🌟 What a great idea!! Xo 💕 🤗

Try the new DQ ultimate cookie blizzard!!!! You will thank me later 😂

Hi Leighann! if you feel comfortable sharing the agency you used can you share please. As someone that needs to go through surrogacy as well I'd like to know your experience with the agency

Exciting

Congratulations 💖💖💖

Oh, this just occurred to me while watching this video and not the last one. Have you seen the RU-vid video of the father who was caught under a train and lost the lower half of his body? The point of the video was his determination to stay alive for his two young children who would’ve been total orphans had he passed away. There is a lot of power in the drive to be there for those you love, and I do believe, especially parental love.

💚💜💙

The stars are so whimsical and art deco vintage... I love it. It is like Tinkerbell has been flying around the room.

Omg the suspense of the paint color!!!

I call them mid century stars! I love the pixie dust look ✨

I absolutely love the color of the nursery and the twinkle theme. ✨ I love that Lucy’s nursery had the sun 🌅 and the new baby girl has the stars. 🌌 So perfect!

Another baby girl 🎀 I am just so happy for you, Grant, Lucy, and Luna Bean to welcome this new bundle of joy. Her nursery reminds me of the quote “Even through your hardest days, remember we are all made of stardust.” ✨

I love the stars! I couldn’t picture it in my head initially, but as soon as you guys started doing it, I knew what you were going for… seriously beautiful. Wishing you and your family all the best🩷🩷

Project manager Lucy out here working hard!

Oh gosh! I love the stars! I don't think they feel harsh at all.... They make me think of like super cute whimsical like Christmas decorations from the 50s. Like the cute deers and stuff.

Oh you guys...I'm just elated for you all. Lucy will LOVE being a big sister. My younger sister is 2 and a half years younger than me and she is my best friend. It's been one of the greatest gifts of my life. Congratulations! Also, I just think the nursery color is beautiful.

Congratulations with another Girl joining the family 😍 mabye im overthibking but im getting the Vibe of Luna being the Moon,lucy the sun leighann the Earth and new baby Girl is the stars 💜

The guy that invented Dr. Pepper noticed sales went down in the winter. So he tried to make it a winter fall drink by warming Dr Pepper adding a cinnamon stick! It didn't really go over well. But it was invented Texas.

I am guilty of skipping ahead to see the color😂 but now I’m re-watching the whole thing! So excited for you all!

A sister for Lucy!! How wonderful! I have three girls all grown women, now, still each other's best friends! Congratulations!! And the nursery is going to be beautiful!!!

I like the stars! Reminds me of tinker bell flying around with stars behind her🧚💜💜💜

Oh you sneaky minx! filming in Black&White! :D :D yes, I highly recommend getting the paint sample cards in multiples and blue tacking those to all walls and seeing the different lighting etc, it took us 3 tries for my hubbies office and I am still debating our bedroom lol I want a calming peachy coral but not too washed out.

What a way to start my day! This is exciting! ♥️🥰

I don’t understand the Cheesecake Factory drama. I love Cheesecake Factory and I would have no problem going there on a first date. Heck I’d be happy going to wingstop on a first date. The way I see it is we need food to survive so anytime someone feeds me, regardless of what or where it’s from, they are literally keeping me alive lol and I’m extremely grateful for that. Maybe I’m just weird. I also HATE to think someone is hungry. I don’t care if you’re my worst enemy, if you tell me you’re hungry I will feed you. On another note.. I was certain baby was going to be a boy lol. So excited for baby girl and this new chapter in your lives!

Edit! WAIT, WHAT LEIGHANN... YOU'RE CHANGING IT, LOL?! You and your mom's hours of star sticking and planning... lol, it is what it is, YOU ARE THE ONE with the vision and you'll be using the room SO GO WITH YOUR HEART ON IT! I'm here for it all! PLEASE VLOG THE CHANGES! It's a GIRL! Yay, Congratulations to you both and to Lucy! What an amazing vlog! The nursery looks so cute and the star idea came out wonderfully! It's honestly like a little fairy has been sprinkling them around as the flew around from the main star! SO VERY CUTE!

So lovely to see Lucy sitting up on her own ♡ ♡ ♡

I would wait to take stars down until all of the furniture is in the room. They stand out right now because they're the only focal point in the room. Once you have curtains, bedding, a rug if you're getting one, and the color of the furniture you may find that they recede a bit.

The stars just take down the gold ones.. See waht you think.. Or else use mix the silver starts with light light light blue & light light grey

Love the stars!!! All you need are larger prints

I love the stars; it is beautiful, every little girls dream!

Maybe only remove the gold stars I think the silver goes with the purple.

I agree with your morning after room assessment. GO BIGGER! Spread the flow of stars out more up and down in the stream of magic. 🥰 pull it apart like cotton candy. You know what I mean. 😉

She bamboozled us with the matching blue outfits on Instagram! I was so sure she was painting the nursery a light orange for a boy! Hahah the purple is gorgeous, congrats! Thats how love works 💕

Lucy will be blessed to have a little sister. My sister and I are 16 months apart. We are in our 50's now. She is my best friend, and I adore her so much. The soft lilac shade of the nursery is so pretty. I think once the furniture and curtains are placed, the stars will blend in just fine. I also think the cluster of little stars would look nicer if they are consistent with the rest of the stars. I hope and pray all your plans come together ❤️

I miss Luna's little face. Can we have a mini update on how her life as a big sister is going?

Aaww I knew it was another girl ♥♥ I love the idea of the stars!! Such a cute family. So happy to see Luna ♥♥

You two make the best partners!!! I’m so happy that you found each other and are living your very best life!!! Congratulations on building your family

I thought Lucy was the spitting image of Grant but does she favor your Mom a little too? Either way she is gorgeous! I always wanted a red headed girl but ended up with 2 mean tail boys. One with super dark hair and the other a little blonde with a little strawberry mixed in. I could not imagine my life any different with them not being them.

I see yall are establishing early who is the “pink sister” or the “purple sister”.

Oh my ✨ stars!! Can’t wait!!

So excited to meet your new baby girl! Another sweet Lucy's face :)

Lucy is gonna be the best big sister!! I love the nursery!!!💜

I know what you mean with the stars. I see the vision but agree they were too...crowded? Saturated? I think some just need to be removed to make it look more sparse and delicate. Like a delicate little trail of Tinkerbell stars

On camera (at least on my phone) that paint color is just magical! It seems to shift in the nuance of every beam of sunlight. I had to laugh at post-bottle Lucy. Leanne: oh she’s so sleepy… Lucy: big eyes 👀 So toddler! 😂

Congrats on the new baby girl!!! Thanks for letting us know the gender!!!

That coke spiced is a hard NO for me !! It tastes like coke and whiskey and anything whiskey flavor kills me since I got sick off of it 😂😂 so I can't stand the taste or smell of whiskey no more and that coke spiced tastes just like whiskey and raspberry flavored coke 🤢🤢

I fell off watching these videos for a while (since Leigh Ann was pregnant with Lucy). Seeing the clips with Lucy and in my mind I can’t stop calling her “MISS BABY!”

Leanne, you are such a beautiful family. Cannot wait to meet your new addition! One question though. I'm wondering I'd you have moved house from the house you did have when you were expecting Lucy? Have i missed a massive portion of your life????

Next time buy small samples of different colors. You just make me laugh. Lowe's and Home Depot do this well. I'm so so happy for the three of you!! Thank you for the video. The room is looking beautiful.

I think if you make the band of stars wider it will look softer

Just catching up. Do hope all the rain hasn't bothered you or your family. I've been a remote member of Berachah Church in Houston since the late 1960s (I'm an older viewer in many ways) and know that you all have had a rough time the last several weeks. Prayers have been said for weather and health angel protection. As someone who has autoimmune issues and wasn't able to have kids I'm very happy for you and Grant, and think your choices are logical. I look at what you are both doing and absolutely marvel at your energy, patience and stamina. God and I had a talk once about kids and He answered. I realize that even though I don't have "my own" through my life He's sent me many kids that as a result I had the time and emotional space for when they needed it. I know His grace had a special plan for me even though there have been times when I wish I'd had the ability to hold my own baby or kid and watch them grow. I feel so blessed to have kids from their 50s to early teens who see me as special in their lives because God had a different purpose for me. I'm really glad He gave you and Grant the gift of children, I wanted that for you. Stay safe.

🌹Love this vlog LeighAnn! I am so excited that you are going to have two little girls! Love seeing Luna bean! You have great taste and style. Continued Blessings and Support. ~Love&Light♥️Carli xx

The room is amazing! But.. My OCD (yes I have a diagnosis) is going crazy.. I have to tell you.. I would put the picture a little bit lower so its some space between the stars & the picture.

Oh no Leighann!! Waking up not loving it, what a crazy bummer! I think it looks amazing but I get it. Hope you've gotten it where you envisioned

Would you be willing to share how you and Grant decided to have another baby and how you're dealing with any residual trauma from Lucy's birth. I had a pretty intense delivery followed by a NICU stay with my baby and it makes me so nervous about having another baby.

If you’re upset that your date takes you to the Cheesecake Factory, you need to re-evaluate your priorities.

I love watching your videos because I can see what an alternate life would look like if I married a doctor. I would totally pay another woman to have a baby for me. That is so awesome .. seriously. lol Wealthy people are so fun to watch. Thanks for letting us live vicariously through you!!

Oh lord, the guy at Sherwin-Williams had to be super new because the people at my local store are color magicians. They absolutely can just lighten an existing shade that they have a swatch for.

24:18 i had to rewind and pause. I thought your body dislocated lol. Omg 🤣. Anyway. Congratulations!

I like the stars but I think that the way that it almost looks like a zig-zagging line… maybe like there should be more variation in widths along the path of the stars… if that makes sense. I think that’s what’s throwing me.

I don't see a single problem with going to the cheesecake factory for a first date! I think that list that went around was the stupidest thing ever and only for the most ungrateful, bougiest, spoiled brats out there! Just my two cents, lol! 😂

Yeah I was not a fan of the Spiced Coke. Have you tried the Creamy Coconut Dr Pepper? Yummmm

I was not prepared for the news that Lucy is getting a sister!! My heart! 🥹

Maybe this is a dumb question but why didn't you do a patch test before painting the entire room? Besides that, love your videos and how enthusiastic you are.

Can't wait to watch this after work! So happy for you and your sweet growing family ❤

ugh that purple colour looks so pretty. was planning to repaint my bedroom and was hesitating on lavender but now i want the purple marshmallow cloud colour too !!

Maybe you wanted more glittery, ethereal stars? Cannot wait to see the final product. 👶🏼

That is just the sweetest nursery! Hope you guys are enjoying all of the sweet time with your baby!

I don’t understand the whole ‘no Cheesecake Factory on a first date’; does anyone know the reasoning behind this opinion?

Are yall going with another L name? Because Lucy and Luella would be so pretty!

What is the picture of art? I can't seem to get a paused still of it to see what it is... I'm assuming it matches your vision with the stars but I just can't tell what it is currently.

What if the stars didnt go onto the 4th big wall and just ended by the closet? Maybe having a big neutral wall would soften the effect

Goooood Morning!! Happy to see your smiling faces!

Happy Mother’s Day and congratulations on new baby girl :)❤❤❤

I’m so excited for you all ❤ the color of the room is so beautiful. I wish it were a real color we could buy 😂 but I’m so happy your paint guy was able to finally get you what you wanted.

The stars looked better and more “calming” when their was fewer on the wall. Also congratulations on another baby girl ❤

I thought it was a girl after I saw the pink teethers in the drawers on IG the other day!! Yay for sisters!!!!! 💕💗💓

Your problem with the color is light nothing to do with the color itself, I have done diferentes shades of the same color in the same room, now wait when you start introducing other colors in the room, it will start pulling different shades, you could ask what are the undertones on the color, that would get you closer to the vibe your color will end up giving

Lucy looks so much like her dad!

Looks like the same color as my childhood room that I picked out myself! 🫶 Yay!
