Maclain's room has been in half transition from baby room to big boy room. I've kept some of his nursery stuff up and integrated some "big boy" things that matched in color and style. Clain's little cousin Liam who could make his debut any day now will definitely be coming before our new house is finished, and he is going to be using some of Maclain's nursery things. WELL, since Liam can't wait on us to finish the house, I went ahead and took down all the last little details of Maclain's nursery (curtains, lamp, etc.) and have already put up some of the thing that I will be using in his new room at the new house!!! I'm trying to not add any more holes in the walls, so it's a tad bare, but this will give you a sample! :)
These were once just blue and green letters hung directly on the wall. I went WAY more creative this time around... last time I had a newborn though (remember I was on bedrest before week 30 so I didn't get any of that cool stuff done before Maclain got here)!
Here's a close-up of the new letters!
This once was a white basket lined with a blue and white cloth... a can of spray paint and ribbon on sale at Hobby Lobby, and wahlah!! (Notice I'm the ding bat who put the seam on the front when I put it on the dresser, AND I took a picture of it... I'll have to spin it around!!)
Here's Clain's new bedding! He seemed to be leaning toward the "sports balls" theme, but after a little convincing, he agreed that cowboy stuff like Woddy from Toy Story is REALLY cool (this was WAY cuter)!
Close up of the quilt!
I can't wait to get in the new house and put all the stuff up I have planned for his room! :)

Hard taking down the nursery stuff, isn't it. I, too, took things down piece by piece until we built and moved into our new house when Erin was 3. With Anna it came down piece by piece until I decide what I wanted to do with her room when she was about 4. The thing with girls is that all those pastel colors work much longer. You just take away the baby stuff. Can't wait to see Maclain's whole new room. It looks like it will be really "cool".
Lots of mis-spelled words in the previous post. Early in the morning. Fingers not with my brain yet . . . but then it could be old age. LOL
