In 1 frenetic week I managed to convert the nursery from pink to blue. Thankfully the walls were green so we didn't have to repaint. Just about everything else was girly from the mirror to the bedding to the lamp. After many shopping trips, each item was replaced by boyish blue.
Lillian had moved out of the crib into a twin bed so we have both in the room right now. The biggest challenge was finding bedding for both beds that I liked and that coordinated...or at least didn't clash. I prefer not to use a theme and finding twin bedding that is not covered in cars or animals proved to be quite a task. Not to mention squeezing all that furniture into one room. But I have a feeling that twin bed is gonna come in handy on some particularly rough nights.
It still needs a couple more final touches and the curtains need ironing desperately but for the most part it's done. Now all we need is the little boy who is gonna use it.

Awesome! I love green! I was coming to sign your blog and then saw this new update. I am so excited for you! Continuing to pray that all goes well - sending my love, Emily
It looks wonderful! You will enjoy having the bed in there for a while! Unless of course you get blessed with a sleeper, which I hope you do. Can't wait for you to be able to fill the nursery! Beth
Oh, how sweet! Hopefully you will be exhausted and passed out on that bed sometime soon.
So nice! I love the idea of having a crib and the bed in the same room... a place for momma to rest beside baby.
it looks soooo good!! wow, you work fast!! that twin bed oughta be just right for MOI!!! ;) i can't wait to hold little beckett (since he's a boy he clearly can't be called becci jr., so becket is a good compromise, i feel! ;)) -Becci :)

I love it - it absolutely looks perfect for Baby Boy Harris! It looks so peaceful! Hopefully just a few more days until B.B. Harris arrives and fills the room with the last added touch!

Lori,
We are heading for Maryland to visit our grandson, but when I get home I will check the blog immediately for news on your new baby boy. I know when you are waiting it seems forever, but all of a sudden he will be in your arms. We are so happy for all of your family. Liz G.
Congrats on the birth of your son, Ian!!! The final piece of the nursery will fit in just right when you arrive home with him on tuesday.
Congratulations and welcome home to Baby Ian! Like probably all of your blog readers, I'm anxious to see a picture! But we need to wait and let you guys get settled in.
-Sandy G.
