The Debut of Little B's Room

Here's how Little B's room is shaping up.... Take a peek for yourself! Granted, there's a lot more to do, but the basics are in place and I just love it. We'ved decided to keep the room the same bright, light, "Naples Blue" that we painted it a few years ago. Some people think that blue equates to boy, but we really don't feel that way. Blue is one of my favorite colors...especially blues of the bright, light, springy variety. And I just love this color matched with brown. It might just be my favorite combination. One might look at the room and think it looks like it teeters a little towards a boys room than a girls, but truth be told, I've never been a pinky-girly-girl. If Little B is a girl, there are some things we'll do to add some more "girliness" into the room. As it is now, we feel its pretty neutral....and I love it!

We'll be keeping the full size bed in the room, both for the future and for convenience during the occasional (wishful thinking, I know) long night that will be in our future. So, I swapped out the comforter for one that matches the room (and that I got at such a great price). Mike's mom found us the rocking chair which also looks cute for decoration in the room. Its quite cute.

As for the dresser, its really sturdy and beautiful. And it doubles as a changing table (thats the stuff in the box to the left that we'll put together when Mike gets back). A little later on, should we want, there's a hutch that can be purchased to go on top of the dresser. Its really nice, so we'll see if we want to add that in after the days of diaper changing have past. I'm really glad that we opted to get this set, which was a little more expensive that our original choice. Now that its here, its clear we made the right choice.

As you can see, somone totally approves of the crib...and that someone is Boomer. He made himself quite comfortable in the room, laying on the full-size bed and supervising me putting the bedding set together. Then, where I was done, we both sat on the bet looking at my work approvingly. I'm glad that he's pretty comfortable in the room as that's important to us. I ran out for some errands today and when I came in the front door, I heard a thump as Boomer jumped off the bed in Litle B's room and came down to greet me. Pretty neat! Can't wait for Mike to see it when he gets home this afternoon!
