The Big Project



A huge goal this spring break was to do some moving around/rearranging of the kids' rooms. Initally, we had them each in their own rooms which you can check out here. Now the girls are sharing a room, Andrew has a Cubs room, and his old room is a playroom. We are so excited about the new arrangment. After painting, sorting, cleaning, arranging, wondering, second-guessing, organizing, tossing, repairing, (whew), I'm ready to enjoy the break and the new look!



Anika & Kathryn are so excited to share a room (for now). Kathryn is now out of her crib and sleeping in a "big girl" bed.


Andrew's Cubs Room (on a budget). We painted this old nursery with Cubbies "away gray" (since we're "away fans"), recycled a shelf and set out his momentos, purchased a (vintage) Wrigley Field print, and we're good to go:-) We still have paint to do a Cubs "C" on the wall somewhere, and I would like to buy/make a baseball pillow for his bed. So it is still a work in progress.And lastly, the new PLAYROOM. This mommy is so happy to have a place to put the toys and shut the door!!! (I think this might be more for me than the kids.)

WalMart had boys bedding that was sports themed for not a whole lot..... you could check and see if it is still available, even if it is just the sheets. My son LOVES them...of course he had floral ones prior to that from great-grandma.... :-)
