We had two last unpainted rooms in this place, and after our weeks long painting marathon, I could not get back up and finish those last two rooms. Ug. Even the thought was exhausting.
But then I volunteered to host a get together with my friends from church, and my pride kicked in to get me over that last hump.
Since we’re renting this place, I didn’t want to buy more vinyl letters to just leave them behind again, so I couldn’t replicate my alphabet border. We also figured that it would be safer to just paint one color since we’re painting without permission and gambling with our security deposit.
Now that my baby is 2 1/2, a mobile over his crib really doesn’t do much for him, but I loved how it looked over the chair. We also had to upgrade to a much bigger bookshelf for my little bookworm.
After my successful hanging of a vertical line of pictures, I brought the masking tape back out to hang a horizontal row and it worked like a dream. I’ll have a post next week going into that in more detail.
It’s really exciting to me to see Atti responding more and more to his environment. He loves having his own space, and he’s so excited that he can play in here, and that it’s not just a room covered in stuff to step over on the way to the crib. Although I think he does miss having all his books in piles to chew on as his little heart desired.
