That husband of mine-- when he gets a notion in his head, you can't stop him. In less than 48 hours, he managed to tape, paint and install a chair railing in the baby's room. And, he got to use his new miter saw. (I think that was a helpful motivator!) Being pregnant, I couldn't help with the painting, so i did laundry Whoo-hoo.
Here are some before and after pictures. The pictures don't do the room justice-- we decided on a Toy Story/Buzz Lightyear adn Friends theme for the baby's room so the colors are "Isle of Capri" and "Sonic Boom." (A Disney color. You should have seen how excited the guy at Home Depot was to get to mix this one. He kept saying "SONIC BOOM!")
Last night, Paul built the crib and now we have tons of styrofoam and plastic bags that will take us months to get rid of. The crib looks awfully cute, though. It's amazing what a few pieces of baby furniture can do to make a seeming good-sized room seem smaller.
Uncle Larry has come up with preliminar sketches of the mural for the blank wall in the nursery. I cannot wait to see the finished product. Baby McJannet is lucky to have such a talented uncle. I'll be posting "in progress" pictures later. He's hoping to start next weekend.
