Before & After

I have a few before & after pics to post. We finally converted our spare bedroom into what will be Cooper's new bedroom, hopefully sooner rather than later. The first step was to find a new home for our computer. Luckily our living room is designed so that we some extra space that is out of the way of the main living area. We were able to put our computer there and put a chair in front of it so it doesn't take up too much space or interfere with the living room I love this picture, Cooper things I'm taking a picture of him and he is actually smiling for once.
Here are a few pics of what our spare bedroom looked like before. We had painted it blue a few years ago, it doesn't match perfectly now, but it's good enough. We were just using the room for our computer and storage for some toys.

Next step was putting together the bed and dresser. Cooper liked to help out.


He's even using his own tools in this one.

Finally we are all finished. We need to get some tint for the window in order for it to be dark enough for nap time, once we do that we will try out the new bed.
I also need a bookshelf, but that can wait. If you know anyone who needs a computer chair, we are looking to sell, at any price, the one in the picture.

I know our church is expanding office space and could use the chair. What do you want for it?

I love the toddler bed you found. It is very nice. great use of your space in the living room .
oh, and Matt did take you out of his phone book. He laughed and said he had taken it out a couple of days ago and apologized for the mess. :)
