22 Mar Big Boy Room – Phase I
Well, Keegan’s “big boy room” is coming along. Two weeks ago, Gray and his parents removed all the guest room furnishings and painted the room two shades of blue, a pale blue on the walls and brighter blue on the ceiling. Last weekend, I put his bed and nightstand together. This weekend, we installed a black-out shade behind the shutters for naptime (the room faces the front of our house with no shade, whereas his nursery has a tiny window completely shaded by cedar trees), found a boxspring for the bed (LONG, frustrating story), and finished the guardrail. But the most fun was had installing the new “road” on Keegan’s wall! See! (Once again, sorry for the phone pictures…still no camera.)
This was fairly easy and so fun to do! It was a great way to take up a big wall safely above his bed.
It’s all vinyl decals, like you put on your car!
Keegan still LOVES cars, and he seemed to get a kick out his new road.
The guardrail works, Big Daddy! 😉
We scattered a few extra cars around the room – along the window and door frames and on the mirror above his dresser. His bedding should be finished in a week or so and will be so cute. He seems to like going in the room now…let’s hope that doesn’t change! We’ll see what fun things we can get done next weekend, and we’ll post a “Phase II” pic. Our goal is still to start napping in the new room by the end of the month. I think we’re on target so far! Please leave a comment, and let us know what you think of Keegan’s new room so far!
Tomorrow is cardiac clinic – a full day of heart fun! Better get to bed since we have to be off super early. Since it SNOWED 7 INCHES in Plano today (yeah, you read that right! On the first day of spring!), I’m sure traffic will be crazy. We’ll update again tomorrow with news from clinic. Prayers would be greatly appreciated for it to be nothing but good news. Thanks so much.
