Jack’s New Big-Boy Room! July 24, 2009

Filed under: Milestones — julescruise @ 10:26 am

Well, we did it. Jack moved into his new big-boy room last Saturday! We got the furniture delivered in the afternoon and he slept there Sat. night. Despite some major excitement and jumping on the bed, he did great! Even slept until 7:15 am on Sunday! He took his nap in there on Sunday too and has done well every night. He calls it his “new room” and the nursery is his “old room!” We’re still doing minor decorating, but most of his stuff is in there. I just have to figure out what to hang above his bed and where to put the wooden letters of his name, get some mahogany wall shelves for photos, etc…

His quilt is the solar system. It’s really cute! It has orange piping around the edge so it matches the curtains :) And of course the sheets are “Cars” – Mater and McQueen! When you are looking at the photo, his big dresser is to the very left. In that far corner we have his rocking chair from the Schwedts (you can’t see it). We got the one little navy bookshelf last weekend but I think he needs one more! His fish, Rudy, just happened to have an orange tank! His closet, which currently is Gerry’s closet, is at the foot of the bed. Oh, and the photo may be a bit dark but he has 4 drawers under his bed/mattress. He has lots of drawer space. It’s coming along so nicely and he loves his room.

I will admit I was a bit sad to move him out of his crib because he’s growing so quickly. I had the same feeling on Saturday night that I had the night we moved him from his bassinet to his crib. :)

Don’t worry, we still have the guest room on the first floor for visitors!

    I was hoping to see pictures of Jack’s new room. It looks like the perfect size for him. Where did you put all of the “stuff” that was in there already?
