Operation Move the Nursery!

With Little Baby on the way, we needed to make a decision - let the two of them have their own room and risk never having guests stay over, or make them share a room and keep a spare room for guests (and here's hoping that guests = family (free) babysitters).
It didn't take us long to decide we wanted to keep a spare room. So we started operation *move the nursery*. Little Girl was in the small bedroom - ideal for one toddler, but not so great for two, plus all their accumulated toys.

We're still in the bubble of not knowing the sex of Little Baby, so we needed a gender neutral colour scheme, and I'm really liking the greys that are out there at the moment, added to that, I bought a tub of a bright mustard colour a while back that needed to be used up - so the our colourscheme was decided upon fairly easily. Little Girl's refurbed grey & pink 70s dresser would look great in there, so it was an easy decision to make,

I went off to work in the morning and left Mr at home with his folks - Nanny looked after Little Girl whilst Mr and Grandad set about moving the rooms around and redecorating. They did a great job, and Little Girl was incredibly chuffed with her new room. It's still very much *her* room, but Little Baby will be in with us for the first 6 months, so we don't really need to worry about adding any furniture at this point.

I went out a couple of days later to buy some frames to make a little feature on the wall, and with all her colourful bunting and Nanny's original watercolours on the wall, the room looks great now.
