A New Room and a New Chair

When I was pregnant with Madelyn and were turning our guest room into a nursery, we decided to keep our guest bed in the nursery because we knew we would have grandmothers spending the night to help out with the baby. And I am so glad we did because I ended up sleeping on that bed some when Madelyn was an infant. Here is what her nursery looked like.



But now Madelyn needs a bedroom, not a nursery. And I have been wanting to move that bed out of her room for awhile now. Our friends, Meredith and Andy (who have a pick-up truck) finally helped us move that bed to my parents' house on Sunday! Yay! (thanks M&A!) (and thanks Mom & Dad for storing our bed!) So yesterday I spent the day fixing Madelyn's room to include all of her toys instead of her toys being in the living room. So now here is what her room looks like.






Here is another change in our houehold. Madelyn is tired of eating in her highchair. Last week she would eat a few bites in her highchair and then request to get down. Then she would immediately climb up in one the dining room chairs and want to eat at the table. So I have taken the tray off her highchair and adjusted the height to fit under our table. She now gets to sit at the table like a big girl. It is amazing how much more I can get her to eat in one sitting now. I think she has been tired of her highchair for awhile and I just caught onto it last week.
