New Paint!!

We are tackling Little Bit's room one step at a time; first... get rid of the beige flat paint!!

Step 1-
     Prep for paint.  Mask the trim, cover the floors and bed, remove the outlet covers

Masking!
 Ready for the paint!
 Gotta mix it up!


Step 2-
     Get Daddy to paint the walls, all while Mommy paces wanting to help!

 YAY!!!


Step 3-
     Wait while the first coat dries!



Step 4-
     Paint the second coat! (King wasn't too excited about being locked out of the room either!)



Step 5-
     Remove all the blue tape! Viola!




I know boring right now... but just wait!! Next step... STRIPES and maybe something else, guess you will have to wait and see! :)

Love,
The Winter's

The Baby Room Transformation Begins!

Mommy has waited looonngg enough! (A lot longer than she wanted to...) The baby room is now in the first stages of transformation.  Ryan and I picked out the fabric at a local fabric store for the bedding and curtains.  Since Little Bit's gender is still a mystery, we decided to go with a black and white theme, but we added in a little lime green for a 'pop' of color.  After Little Bit arrives we will then add in hot pink or blue for some gender specific accents! :)




This fabric will be part of the curtains for the windows and also the crib skirt.  (Speaking of that... I really should invest in a sewing machine!)  The paint we have selected will be used for some stripes painted on one wall! :)






So here are the last pictures of the room before we get it ready for Little Bit's arrival! :)
