Cooper's room

week 26 also was the week that the major work on Cooper's room was done, with many thanks to brennon, brian, and gabe!

gabe had done the painting...the walls and the ceiling. no, everything is not the same color. it took him some time, but it looks better than i imagined it would. he had done that a couple of weeks ago and we were just waiting for my brother to get some time to fit us into his busy schedule. he was doing the crown moulding. well, the time came and it looks great! i had no idea how intricate it was to do. i thought it was just some 45 degree angles and a few nails. i was corrected. he had a saw that he used once the angle was cut to cut out the edges so everything would fit just perfect. he said that if my dad were to look at it and it wasn't done right, there would be hell to pay. he's probably right.

so now, my mom has some trick up her sleeve for one of the walls that we are waiting on and then we can clean the carpets and start putting furniture in.

it is all waiting in the garage for it's home. the crib, dresser, changing table, ottoman, ceiling fan and a few handmade toys that were mine when i was little. we are waiting on the glider to come in and the fabric for the sheers over the windows. i am also back on the hunt for bedding...yuck! i had it all done until i went into pottery barn baby last night and the sales lady told me that the bedding that looks white online is really a cream color- so annoying!
