Show us where you live Friday - "Kids Rooms" Edition


"Show us where you live Friday - Kid's Room Edition"
Hosted by Kelly over at   Kelly's Korner 

This the 5th week of this great "Tour of homes"  - Seriously, what will we do when we run out of rooms.  I loved looking at everyone's lovely dining rooms last week and I'm really excited to peek at all your kids rooms.  

We did our son, Hayden's room a few years back in a Thomas the Train theme and surprised him with it when he returned from his grandparents place on summer vacation.  He loved it so much then but now I'm starting to hear quiet rumblings that Thomas may be on the way out but I'm not sure what he expects it to be replaced with.

But he will need to wait until at least next year as we are going to embark on decorating Laila's room this summer.  As you will see in the pictures her room is lacking in the decorating department but honestly she only sleeps in there now so it fits the bill.  I'm still trying to decide what the theme will be for her so I will love to see what other mommy's have done for their little girls.

Both rooms are great sizes with hmmm...you guessed it "built-ins"  - while they are nice it has been a bit challenging trying to place furniture in the rooms.  I know as the kids get older the bookcases and desks will be great but for now it's been a little awarkard.  They both have nice walk-in closest which makes it great for clothes organization.

Here's a few pictures of each room..  Enjoy !!

Hayden's Room.....

I love Hayden's bed because we bought the trundle for underneath.  
It will be great when he starts to have friends stay over.

Laila's Room....
A view from the entrance - One of my most favorite things in her room is the super cozy glider rocker.  I have spend may hours rocking both babies in that chair.

My other favorite thing is her crib which was actually Hayden's when he was a baby.

The change table that we will converted into a chest of drawers this summer.

Mommy has a small shopping problem but gosh little girl clothes are just to darn cute.

Such cute rooms. I love the nursery furniture. I also love the 2 tone blues. You might get some extra mileage out of it by taking down the Thomas border and fixing the paint or putting up a chair rail to hide the seam. Bedding is fairly inexpensive in stores like Walmart. Just an idea to get him through another year.

ps. or pick a third color blue and do a stripe the same size as the border to replace the border. That might be cute too and give him just the amount of change he's looking for.
