A Big Girl Room

Collins had one request for her big girl room- PINK!!! And pink is what she got.

Mom and Baba came up this past weekend to help me transform the guest bedroom into Collins's new big girl bedroom, and the amount of work we accomplished in two days was incredible. We painted the room, the closet, a new dresser, a new nightstand, a bookcase, a desk, and a chair in various shades of pink/aqua/white. We had paint everywhere!

I could have never gotten this project off the ground without Mom and Baba's help, and Collins was literally jumping up and down with excitement when she saw the finished wall color. I'm still working on all the final decor now so no big reveal yet, but here's how the project got started...

Collins got the ball rolling with the first swipe of pink paint...

 
then insisted on a dancing break.

 
Alli got saddled with a paintbrush too, even though she was going into work later...

 
and Baba kept Collins busy cleaning windows.


She was thrilled with the final product! And despite the fact there was little play time this weekend, it was really fun creating a special room for Collins with some of the women who love her most!
