Finished bedroom pictures

...And a couple more from the past week:

     
Andrew hamming it up as usual
Harper at her 4 month checkup.
Stats are: 12 lbs, 9 oz (25th percentile)
23 3/4 inches long (25th percentile)
                                             

Hiking at our favorite Saturday spot, Bernheim Forest. Andrew is getting pretty good at going about 1 to 2 miles.  He could go further with his energy level I'm sure, but we'd be there all day as he stops to pick up every. single. rock.

Loving the sunshine!

The boys all together again at our friend Danny's wedding...such a fun weekend with friends!
 And finally....our bedroom is mostly done! It's been a loooong six months since we started this project and Nate has worked so incredibly hard on all of it. Our contractor did everything up to drywall and then we took over from there (which I believe makes us crazy!).  It has taken a long time to get this room finished as it has 3 closets, a bathroom and of course all those windows Nate had to trim out but we are finally moved in and it's been great to have some space again. Here is the tour as best I could capture it:
 This is the view looking from our current hallway into the new bedroom...there are 2 closest on the left, a linen one and the HVAC/Utility/Storage closet (as we call it).
When you walk in and turn to the left, her is what you see! It's nothing fancy but we like it...I still have to put some pictures and things up on the wall but I'm mostly planning to keep it simple. My dad built that headboard for us and Nate and I covered it with fabric...way less expensive than buying one. Paint color is Benjamin Moore Revere Pewter which I love!
 I love that sweet little baby girl on the bed too:)

 Here is the view looking back into the entryway into our room...the door goes to the master bathroom which is not finished yet (but getting closer!).
 And from the other corner of the room...the door to the closet.
 ...which might be my favorite part so far...Storage! We've had all of our clothes and shoes in plastic storage bins for 6 months, so it is wonderful to have it all organized again (and I do love organization:).
 No more searching through stacks of wrinkled clothes for one shirt and Nate can get ready for work in the morning without worrying about waking up Harper or trying to get dressed in the dark (which is not fun!)
So there you have it...we still have a lot of work to do on the bathroom, family room and screened in porch (which doesn't yet exist!) but we are getting there. I'm just so glad that Harper finally has her own space (and is no longer sleeping in our room) and that Nate and I do too. I'm so thankful for all the hard work he's and my dad have put into our house. I know I've mentioned it before, but my dad did ALL the electrical work on the addition and has installed all the light fixtures, built closet shelves, and helped in so many ways.
