This weekend was a very exciting one for a certain 3 year old in our house. We started painting her new big girl room!
This project has been a long time coming and I should probably preface this by letting you know that last July we started an addition to our house of new master bed/bath and a small office. We hired a contractor to do the shell or exterior of the house, plumbing and electric but the rest was done by my super talented and handy husband, Matt. Our timeline to complete the addition was last October but Matt was still hard at work on the house when Lily arrived in early November. Needless to say this slowed things down slightly but the majority of the work was completed by early this year. We finally moved into our new room and with life settling into somewhat of a routine we have finally begun the process of making our old master bedroom into Hannah's new room.
Hannah and I ventured out to buy paint and some supplies on a very rainy Saturday morning. By the time we arrived home the rain had slowed down and Hannah took some time to twirl outside with her new paintbrush...
After lunch and a nap Hannah joined us to finish up painting her room (and do a little singing too)...
We still have some trim left to paint but now starts the fun part of decorating and building some new built-ins for the room. Matt is going to tackle this job the first week of June so it will be a little while before it is all complete. I hope to move Hannah in once the built-ins are in place so I will post finished pictures then. Until then I will leave you with one more hint....

Sister...love the pics of sweet Hannah with a paintbrush! She's a natural. I'm uber excited to see the finished product!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to need you to post pics of both girls each time you make a new entry. They grow so fast and this is the only way I can "watch" them.
Much love to you all!!!--B
