Since we moved into our house last February we haven't done much with Tatum's room. This weekend it was finally time to get her a big girl room. My parents had some furniture that was my Gramma's; a dresser a night stand and 2 twin beds. Tatum has had the dresser for awhile, my Mom had stained it for us when Tatum moved into the toddler bed before Camdyn was born. We decided we wanted to have white furniture in her room since Tatum told us she wanted pink on her walls. Earlier this week Gramma came over and put 2 primer coats and one top coat on the furniture. Tatum and I put another paint coat on it all yesterday (I let Tatum paint the inside of the beds and she had a great time).
We went to home depot Saturday morning hoping we could just match the paint to the bedding that we had picked out. But of course all the different things we brought in to be matched couldn't be found, so much for that idea. After being at home depot for 2 hours we settled on some paint and crossed our fingers that it would turn out how we pictured. We picked Tink Pink and Bubblegum Pink...... Bring on the PINK!!
We got home had some lunch and Matt and Gramma started painting the room while Tatum and I worked on the furniture and Camdyn took a nap. The paint turned out perfect on the walls after a 6 hour painting day. Matt and Gramma worked so hard to make it perfect. We put the beds in last night and loved how it was turning out.

Checking out the beds before we got mattresses. |
This morning we moved in the rest of the furniture and painted the handles for the dresser. We went and got mattresses for the beds and the room came together. We are so incredibly happy with how the room turned out, it is perfect for our 2 little princesses. Of course it will be awhile until Camdyn is sleeping in there with Tatum because she is still in a crib in her room. As of now Tatum is so super excited to sleep in her new big girl room. It will be a HUGE step for her if she does sleep in there tonight. Keeping our fingers crossed that she keeps up her excitement and is able to sleep in there at least part of the night to start!!
