One down, a lot more to go!




We have lived in our house for about 8 months now and with three kids it has been hard to really settle in and "decorate". Whatever that means.
Anyway my parents have come up to visit numerous times and work themselves to death helping us! This last visit Dan and my dad hung two new fans and moved an old one to Zeke and Sofia's room. (It might surprise you to find out Zeke broke his old ceiling fan by climbing on his bookcase and hanging on the blades!)
Then my Dad and mom and Dan worked on our sprinklers all day as well. They are amazing and do so much to help us!
Anyway last week I finally finished one room completely in our house! Moses has been really wanting his room to be done and look put together so I did it! (that is a joke, he is only 10 months old, he doesn't really care!)
I am happy with it and the curtains came out good and it is simple but cute!
Next up is Dan and I's room, I was working on a shelf but the wood got warped after I had been distressing for a week, awesome.
Someday it will get done, for now I have one room down!!

I love the tree painting! Did you do that yourself?

I love this room. Even more proof that Delaney and Moses belong together. Maybe when the kids are all grown we'll have time again to talk on the phone. I miss you, friend!

Alyssa! The room looks incredible. You've really got quite the artistic eye. Maybe someday I'll be inspired to decorate MY house :)

I so know what you mean! I just now posted a blog about the construction around our house. I love a put together house but it is hard to get there.

The room looks great!
I LOVE the tree art...I was wanting to do something like that for the new baby's room. Did you buy it or make it?
