Nesting

Here is a sneak peak into Baby Caden's new room. We have decided to put him downstairs with Blayne. The two will be across the hall from one another and share a bathroom which should alleviate some of the potential up and down action with a three story house.

Notice Mommy isn't completely crazy- she did put a little bed in here so she can just stay here and sleep in the middle of the night if and when necessary...as well as monitor Ms. Blayne's "helping" with the baby.

NOTE: climbing into the crib in the middle of the night does not qualify as helping...and don't think we haven't found her in there already...


And while we absolutely needed to prepare a room for young Caden, "nesting" this time did somehow translate into the need to also re-paint the entire house before the baby gets here.

What? It needed to be done.

Luckily, we have enough construction work going right now that Mommy worked a good deal to have it done for us!
So, needless to say, Ms. Blayne's room also got a face lift- I don't think we've actually posted any pics of it since she moved downstairs herself, last January. She had a really cool bunk bed, but like the crib, when the climbing started, we had to split it and do a quick remodel.

The rest of the house is still somewhat 'under construction' but with any luck we will have things 'under control' in the next few weeks. We'll see...as much as we want to have everything in order, Mommy is losing momentum.

Momma Ash- the rooms look beautiful, love the colors. Take full advantage of the "I'm nesting" line you only have a few days left then you can use the "I just had a baby" line. xoxoxoxo

I can't believe how great these rooms look! You guys are way ahead of us! We didn't change anything in the nursery yet and Margaret's room isn't even finished yet either. It is almost as if we are ignoring the fact that we are having a baby in two weeks!
