Baby Room Progress

22 more weeks to go!  As I mentioned in my 17 week update we've started work on the baby room.  The project has become a bit more than we expected but we're both glad we've made the decision to do it all!

So far the floors have been prepped for new hardwood, the old ceiling tiles are almost completely removed and we moved a wall!  (Well I didn't actually have anything to do with it since it was a dusty job!)

The room originally had a large closet, which was nice...but not necessary for a baby/child.  We thought about it and talked about how the room would work and decided it made more sense to have greater floor space and a smaller closet.  

This is almost a before photo.  
(Please excuse the pixelated hard working man in the bottom of the picture!)


By eliminating half of the closet we gained a 5 ft x 3 ft amount of floor space!  
The perfect nook for a crib! 


The closet organizer slid right over into its new place...that was one thing I didn't want to lose! 

We were lucky that we were able to use all the existing materials...we literally just moved the far closet wall over to what would have been the middle of the two closets and wala a little taping and spackling and we have a new nook! 


These photos give you a glimpse into the ceiling tiles that are coming down as well as the wallpaper!  I can not wait to get rid of the "green"!!
