Decorating Dilemma

Since we are renting the house we live in, my decorating options for Lincoln’s nursery are limited. So, I decided I wanted to do some vinyl lettering on the wall(s). I thought it would be fun to do something to keep with the theme of his bedding, stars & moons. Everything I mention to Dan he thinks is cheesy. So, I need input from more than just him. Some ideas:
*Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star (Dan says boys don’t twinkle!)
* Sweet dreams, sleep tight, we love you, good night
*Worth the wait.
*I’m a Dream Come True
*A bundle of joy...our little boy
*Babies are bits of stardust blown from the hands of God.
* Dreams come true, Prayers are answered, Miracles happen

What do you guys think? Any wonderfully brilliant ideas?

    I really like "Dreams Come True" It is simple... yet says so much! And it goes with the theme.

    Jordan, yeah, Lincoln is his name--Lincoln Daniel.

    Thanks for your input, guys! I didn't know if Dan was going to like any of the ones I posted, but much to my surprise, he likes "Sweet bundle of joy, our baby boy" and "Sweet dreams, sleep tight, we love you, good night". So, at least there's something we agree on. We're finally making progress!

    I laughed so hard at the boys don't twinkle. I like them all and think any will be fine.

    I dont think I've ever commented on your blog before, but Im Tim's wife. I've always thought that that part from Peter Pan, "second star to the right, and straight on til morning" would be really cute with a star/moon boys theme. I'm really excited for you guys, soon you will have your little boy!!

    I think Dan's right, boys don't twinkle. I think they tinkle. Maybe you should say tinkle tinkle little star! You know that Lincoln is the capitol of Nebraska. I like the name!

    I also like, "I'm a dream come true." Cute.

    In Sammy's room I have "When they placed you in my arms, you slipped into my heart." Its around the frame of Sammy's birthparents. I need some other vinyl so thanks for the ideas. I'm excited to hear what you choose!

    I had a sing in our apartment in Logan that said..."You are what happened when I wished upon a star" at least I think that is what it said-
