New Room


Since Alyssa was born she has shared a room with me and Russ. This was for many reasons, one being we only had one bedroom. We originally make shifted half of the family room into a room for her. This didn't work out so well. Russ stays up studying and it is noisy. I also love sleeping with her. It is so fun to cuddle her and have her with us at night. But she is getting too big. Russ convinced  me to clean out the disgusting storage room and turn it in to a room for her. It is the grossest room in the whole house, I couldn't imagine it being a little girls room. 
Before,but after we moved all the boxes out.

She took to her new room very well. She loves it. She says Mine when we go in there. She didn't complain or  fuss at all when we put her to bed in there the first night. She does wake up in the middle of the night crying for me but besides that it is going really well. It is amazing what new carpet, paint and some TLC can do. My handy husband did most of it. I helped paint =).
