The baby's coming...in only four months!
I need the "nesting" drive to kick in, that super-mom power to accomplish the impossible in little or no time, because I've got some major rearranging to do.
The guest room upstairs has to become the twins' room and the nursery has to be prepared for the new baby. And of course I don't want Lil Man to feel left out, so I've planned to add a new theme in his room as well. I hope to accomplish all of this on a very, very, very tight budget. This ought to be fun! I love a decorating challenge! I just hope I can get it all done before our newest addition arrives. My track record on finished projects is not very good right now, I'm afraid. (Here is where I should add a picture of the wall in our master bedroom that is covered only partially by a pattern I started painting over a year ago).
Maybe I should make a list. I like making lists. They're so practical and ideal. Neat. Tidy. But they do have to be followed to really accomplish anything. This is where I usually run into trouble. If I can't accomplish task number one, I just skip it. And so on and so forth until I'm pretty much back to where I started. That kind of defeats the purpose of a to-do list, now doesn't it? We-ell, the whole idea of making a list is a sound one, so I guess I should try, try again.
First on my Baby Do List:
Find the inspiration rooms...
Top Left: Inspiration for twins' room by ooh food. Top Right: Idea for nursery by LONDON SOUTHERN BELLE. Bottom: Inspiration for Lil Man's room by all edwards.
I'm getting excited.
I already completed task number one!
Yeah! How hard can this be, right?
