This morning Calan and I said goodbye to our bedrooms and took off for the night at my father-in-law's house. Today we are having our bedrooms repainted and tomorrow we move bedrooms. Bob and I head upstairs; one floor away from Calan, one floor away from the bathroom (any pregnant lady can sympathize with that one). Calan moves into our bedroom. We will finally be able to set up our second crib that has been collecting dust in our basement. I will finally be able to start "nesting" for our latest addition.
It isn't easy for me to see my home in such a disarray. I like having everything organized and decorated. Like any newly wed when Bob and I moved into our home, pictures and memorabilia from our wedding decorated our bedroom walls. Our bedding is still the set we registered for 4 1/2 years ago. What will our new bedroom look like? A big mess! I know that one day it will be all organized again, and knowing me that will be sooner rather than later, but I am not looking forward to dealing with the mess in the meantime.
Calan's room should transfer over nicely. His old room and new room are both painted the same color. I am just hoping that once we start moving the furniture into his room that we have enough space. I am getting nervous that there won't be enough room for everything that I would like in there. The room should have 2 cribs, 2 dressers (one a dresser/changing table combo), rocking chair, and side table. The rocking chair and table will be my bonus if they get in. I just want a spot to sit and read to my children. A spot to cozy up with them before bed. Yes, I can live with out it, but it would be nice to keep it in there.
On the plus side, I am sure next week I will be able to go on a little shopping trip to get some things we need and things I want. I have been pretty exhausted lately as I head into my third trimester. I am hoping this "project" re-energizes me and I get a little more pep in my step.
I promise to post pictures once I feel like the nursery is nice enough to share.
