Well it's official. My baby is in a big boy bed and is no longer a "baby". At the rate we were going he could have slept in his crib until he was 10 except for the fact that he'd just about out grown it. He's a good sleeper and at 2 and a half is still taking a nap most days and has never crawled out of his crib.
I've had the decorating and crafting bug lately so his room was my next project. I don't have a before of his room but it was nothing special. White walls and not much hanging on them. He had primary colors in his nursery so I wanted to go with something different. Brown and orange it is. Jared was mister handy man and made his bed (with the help from http://www.knock-offwood.com/) . I LOVE how it turned out. His room is still has a lot of work to do but here it is at it's current state.
Boston pretending to be asleep in his new bed.
My mom found this dresser at a yard sale on saturday and I picked it up for $15. It will be my first furniture makeover project and will be going in Bostons room.
I wanted to do something fun and bold so I'm painting it orange to match the stripes on his wall. Here is it with it's first coat.
More to come when the project is complete (what am I talking about my projects are never complete!)

Great job, Jared! (And Emily!) I love the bed and thanks for posting the blog address. This is giving me many ideas!
I love his bed! Jared did a wonderful job. I can't believe how talented he is.
