Baby's Room

We've been busy the last few weekends completing projects around the house. Last Sunday we tackled the basement. It's going to take several more days/weekends with a little remodeling before it's a space we use on a regular basis, but we're off to a good start.

This past weekend we painted the baby's room and continued to prepare for the arrival of baby #2. Baby's clothes are washed and put away, and all the baby gear was dusted off and is ready for the big day. My parents were in town visiting for the weekend, and we're so grateful/thankful for their helping hands. Helaina just loves their company!!!

Little by little Helaina's second birthday party is coming together. She knows her big day is soon arriving. Every time we light a scented candle in the house, she sings herself "Happy Birthday" and asks to blow out the candle.

The plan for the baby's room is to paint an additional pink accent border if it's a girl or a navy blue accent border if it's a boy. We'll put all the finishing touches together after the big day.

Not much has changed in Helaina's room. New curtains and storage bins, but everything else remains the same. So far, she hasn't tried to crawl out of the crib, and we're keeping our fingers crossed that we won't have to transition to the toddler bed until a few months after the baby is born.
