Big Boy Room

Wow, a month since my last post... I'm so bad... Not really- have just been BEYOND busy. We have had an impromptu trip to the lake, Ive been planning Masons Bday party and he has been in Colorado with my Mom and Step dad (post to follow on his fab trip). I have been cleaning out toys and getting rid of baby stuff like a mad woman and transforming Mason's room into one more suitable for a soon to be 4 year old. This was my big project to tackle while he was gone as I wanted him to be surprised when he got home. He has been in his toddler bed and has outgrown it very quickly. We were lucky enough to have a crib that converted into a full and got a great deal on a new mattress set for him. He has always had a sports themed room and I actually got this big boy bedding LOONG ago when I found it on sale. I knew it would go perfect with his current motif so I have had it stashed away for well over a year. Well, after toddler bed deconstruction, glider gone and a few furniture changes... Viola! Here is his new room!

He loves, loves, loves it and couldn't wait for all of us (as in all 5 of us) to get in his new bed and read a book. He looks so big and grown up. tear...

What the kid REALLY wanted was a Pirate room, but since I refuse to paint the walls black (like he requested), I decided the next best thing would to be to make him a Pirate blanket. All the new stuff and this was BY FAR his favorite! He especially likes the scary one with the sword in his mouth... ahem...

Anyway, had to share!
