And finally...

... the baby's room.

No. It is not done yet. There is much much work that needs to be done but when it is done, I think it is going to be spectacular. This is the before picture and when I finally get off bed rest, I am hoping to have an after picture. In the mean time, here are my inspirations and picks so far. Don't judge, just wait till it's finished and then you can tell me I'm crazy.

Here are the last couple of rooms on the main floor.

The living room

It's a little bare because i wasn't able to accessorize again after Christmas and the kids keep moving my trees. My most fav part though is the couches. They are custom from Basset Furniture that we actually bought for our last house. That was almost 5 years ago and I am still in love with them.

The dining room

This room is nice but it will get a make over as soon as I am up to it.

That could be a year from now. :)

My Office

The kids are actually the ones that spend the most time in here. They could be on that computer for hours.

Once we found out we were adding a new little guy to the family, we decided that we were going to have to do some room switching. I really didn't want anyone to share a bedroom and I didn't want to put Afton on a different floor. So our only option was to get rid of the playroom and completely change everybody's room.

The kids were all for it once they realized that a new space really meant a totally new room with new paint and new furniture. We put Grayson in Afton's room. We put Afton in the playroom and the Baby will go in Grayson's room.

Because we don't have a playroom, we had to get rid of a lot of toys and put the rest of the toys in each kid's room. I was a little nervous about it because the playroom was rarely ever clean. But the kids have really been great at keeping their toys picked up and making sure their rooms are clean every day.

We recently redecorated the family room. It all started with a new paint color. It was hard to convince David that it would look good but he finally agreed after I suggested that it could be my birthday present.

Here is what it looked before...

I was really getting sick of the beige. Well, let's be honest. I have never been a fan on beige, no matter what shade it is. I wanted it to feel like a breath of fresh air when you walk into this room.

Once we changed the paint the color and sold almost all the furniture, this is what is looks like now...

I LOVE this room now. I still have finishing touches to do but I love the furniture and the overall feel of the whole space.

The redecorate carried thru into the kitchen/breakfast nook...

It is amazing what drapes and some color can do!

I have had a few people ask me to post pics of rooms in my house. Not every room is perfect just yet so I have been waiting to put pics up until they are perfect. Well, I realized that is not going to happen. It takes time to get accessories just right and I am always a work in progress which also makes my house a work in progress. So I will post room by room what I have going on at my house so far.

Let's start with my favorite room. My bedroom. In my opinion, the bedroom should be everyone's favorite room. It should really fit your personality and bring you peace every time you walk into it. Now a days, I spend at least 20 hours a day in my room. Thank goodness I love it.

We found our side tables at Ikea and I painted them bright yellow.

It took me a year to collect this many yellow hard bound books. The library "for sale" section was key to finishing my collection.

I painted this picture just especially for this spot. I really didn't know what I was doing so I was worried about it. I love it though and I love looking at it everyday.

Paige sewed this pillows for me. I really wanted to add some softness to this part of the room.
