A New Look

After Connor was born, our study quickly became a playroom. I finally decided that it was easier to have one central location for all the toys instead of having them scattered throughout the house. I have absolutely LOVED having this space. It is where we spend most of our time during the day.

When we first moved in the room was painted red, but after spending more time in there I soon decided we needed a lighter color. One Friday I told Cole I wanted to paint the playroom. On Saturday he was at Home Depot buying primer and had the whole room primed by the end of the day. He told me to pick a color and he would paint it on Sunday. Well, to our surprise Cole's painter from work heard that we were painting and offered to paint the room for us! So in less than a week I had the room painted and reorganized!

The most exciting part of the whole project was getting Connor's early Christmas present from Mimi... his new table and chairs!! I have been eyeing this table from PBK for a long time and was so happy for Connor to have it. Connor thinks his new table and chairs are great! After breakfast it is the first place he goes. Since he is really into climbing right now he spends most of his time getting in and out of the chairs. It is so fun to watch him grab a book and go sit at the table to read. He also has decided that it is a perfect place to play with his block sorter (which we play with daily).

I love the new wall color so much that I think I might paint the rest of the house too! :)
