Oh my long neglected blog. It’s been months (months!?!) since I’ve written. Holy cow. So this has been a long time coming. But after we found out that baby #2 was coming and there wasn’t much of a chance of a bigger home right now, we decided to switch the office and Avie’s bedroom because the office is slightly bigger for sharing.
The good news is that the gray chevron that we spent forever on still works well for a little girls room. In fact, before we knew that we’re having a second girl, we knew that the gray chevron would be versatile enough to be a boy/girl room if need be.
We didn’t really have to do much but move things and put up all the existing decorations. There weren’t any added expenses, but I think it turned out pretty cute.
And looking back toward the door again. That rocking chair, however, is huge and there simply isn’t room for it. For now it’s still there, but we plan to move it into our bedroom (at least for the duration of baby being in our room for the first few months). I even got to put up the vinyl birdies from Avie’s name tag in the other room. They peeled off and restuck much better than I thought they would. Her name, however, crumbled to pieces and was completely unusable (which I expect).
Avie’s been in her new room since November-ish? ( I honestly don’t remember.) And she’s been doing pretty well in her new room. Soon we’ll see how she does sharing with baby sister! In the mean time, the next project is painting Avie’s old room for the office…. but that may have to wait until after Avie’s birthday. Because there’s a project there too. I promise, I’ll write about that too!
