Big Boy Room!

A few weeks ago Jeff and I started putting together Landon's big boy room. I was hesitant for a long time - he still slept so well in his crib and was so contained! But with a new baby on the way we didn't want him to feel displaced and we just knew it was time. I have wanted to do wainscoting in his room for forever but we never had ... so it was now or never! 

We (and by we I mean Jeff and my dad) put up the wainscoting and then we had it painted. We put it all together and decided on a random Monday night to put the bedding on since we had just finished purchasing it. We wanted to let Landon help in hopes of it getting him excited for the big move. 

He was thrilled! Here he is working really hard at bringing in all his blankies.

And he slept in there that night like it was no big deal! He LOVES his new room! Nap time proved to be a little more of a challenge (ah that containment issue) ... but Landon is apparently very motivated by stickers and a treat after nap time! So for now that is working!

Here he is with bear showing off his (their!) new room!

 

Since moving in that first night we have added curtains and his fish tank ... we still have a bit of actual decorating to go (another pillow or two and his finished nightstand), but we're close enough. And he loves it! Such a big boy!!
