The boy's room

Did a bunch of work yesterday fixing up Simon's room. Isabella's room still needs lots of work (I need to make a headboard and get new bedding) so I'll post that when it's looking half decent. Thank goodness I still have a few more weeks of maternity leave!

Right now I'm using the bed as a changetable. Simon is the length of his old changetable and the second you lay him on it he tries to roll and it just annoyed the crap out of me. Now I sit on the bed next to Simon and he can move a bit without falling. When he outgrows the crib, that bed will go on the wall where the crib is and the dresser will move down so that it is more centered under the art grouping. It's a tiny room so once the crib is out it'll be way less crowded. Ohhh...I just remembered, I bought two more paint by numbers on Etsy that will have to be added to the grouping once they arrive (or maybe just leaning on a shelf since I think I 'll have to buy frames).

  1. I love the tree! So cute. And the little bed. My favorite pictures that you have up are the two on the left. The pop of color and the way they go together so well just really catches the eye.

  2. Thanks Jacqui! I love the two prints on the left too. I have 3 more prints from that artist (ISO50) in the basement.

  3. His room is adorable! Still on maternity leave? How much leave do you get in Canada? I can't believe people in the U.S. are fighting health insurance reform.

  4. Thanks Peggy! I go back to work on Nov. 2. and I can't say I'm looking forward to it. We can collect unemployment for one year and because I work for the gov't, they top me up to almost my full salary for that year. It's not bad but I still think one year is too short...
