Lots of Painting

Much of settling into the new house means making our mark on the house. Literally. Translation: lots of painting. Pretty much the whole house could use a new coat of paint and we want to make it "home" with our own colors.

The Painting Station has been set-up in a spare bedroom, as we started with upstairs rooms.First up, Brooke's room. Melted Butter is back. (note through the windows it is dark out...because painting takes 3 continous hours, we must do it after the Munchkin's in bed, meaning we've had some later than normal nights)While the painting ensued, Brooke took up residence in the guest bedroom (as did Maddie during nap times).Ta Da! Here she is admiring her freshly painted, wallpapered, decorated room. And the border is back up too. When Brooke crawled in her room the day after the border went up, she sat pointing at her animal friends on the wallpaper border (daily we talk to the zebras, elephants, alligators, etc. that are on the border).

It looks wonderful! I wondered how you had the same monthly photo of Brooke background! She is so adorable and getting so big!
