Girl's Room Redo!

While preparations for the new baby were being finished, I had to switch Eden from the crib to a big girl bed.  I really wanted to start new with the girl's room, but was a little overwhelmed with how much time and money it would take.  Damien was right in the middle of the busiest time of year for him, and I was ginormously pregnant, so I just didn't feel up to it.   Plus, I am super indecisive when it comes to what I want to do, so a lot of the times I just do nothing.  I had talked to Amber about their room lots of times, but one conversation she offered to come and help me.  So I decided to just jump in and take her help!  I really wanted to do bead board in the room, since it already had the trim up.  I measured the room and figured out how much it would cost and figured out how to fit it in our budget.  :)  I was lucky enough to find the bedding at TJ Maxx that was a really good price and just what I was looking for.   My mom did hours and hours and hours of sewing for me, and I seriously wouldn't have done it with out her help.  She has so many amazing talents-if I could have like 10%  of Susan in me I would be good!  :)

Spence was so good to come and spend a whole day putting bead board up, painting, and getting bossed around be me and Ams! :)  Damien was gone most of the day but helped when he got home. 

Amber basically painted the whole thing by herself and I tried to entertain the girls and keep them out of the way.

Spence-hard at work!

This is what the room looked like BEFORE:
And this is AFTER!


The girls LOVE it, and so do I!  It wouldn't have happened with out Amber and Spence and my mom!
