Moving Up

Aliyah finally is moving up from the crib made toddler bed and to a real big girl bed. 

She was so excited to not only be in a big girl bed but to have her bed be PINK!!

We found this awesome frame for $12 on KSL Classifieds and gave it a good coat of PINK paint.

I love the way that it turned out... 

and so did Aliyah!

Our next step was building bookcases to flank the bed and windows.  

Dave and I decided what we wanted them to look like, drew it out, and bought the materials. 

It was a process!! And I probably wasn't as helpful as we had hoped I could have been! 

But we finally got them done: cut, framed, boxed, finishing, sanded, and painted.

It was fun!

I made the bed skirt and pieced together the quilt…

once again more PINK!

Made the pillows

And now we are working on the decor.

It makes me a little bit sad to see her in a big girl bed, but she loves it!

And now the nursery is ready for a baby anytime!
