This is what we do at our house instead of decorating a nursery.

Climbing walls in the basement!

Check out the hinges on the side of that overhang, so we can use it for storage space.  (No, the hinges are not weight-bearing.  The triangular "door" is screwed shut -- it won't be for frequently accessed storage space).  

Next job is polyurethane on everything.  Then the floor mats, parts of which we are buying used (from a local climbing gym).  Then those boxes of jumbled climbing holds that have been gathering dust in Mark's shop will finally start getting put to use...

Wow, that is fantastic!! Baby nurseries always make me chuckle - not that I didn't do one myself back with my first!! - but right now were are more in the, "where on earth are we going to put this baby's clothes" than "oh, let's decorate this room in baby cuteness." I guess baby nurseries are one of those things many families outgrow once they decide to have more than one or two kids! (not that this always happens... But it sure has in our family!)
