The rooms are ready!

Papa Tigger and I continue our rampage to be ready for this baby! We learned our lesson with Tigger and have been super diligent about being prepared early.

As we've mentioned in previous posts, Tigger has moved to a toddler bed and now shares the study with us. His old room, the nursery, is now all ready for Tilly. We honestly haven't changed too much (you may recall when we prepared the nursery for Tigger). We've switched from a Winnie the Pooh/Tigger theme to a water lilly theme (Tilly, lilly, water lilly - get it? Thanks for the idea Kelly!). The color palette has stayed the same. Once we decide on a name, that will go up and it will really be done!



The biggest change has been the study. We pared down our office furniture and now share it with Tigger. Here are the before pictures (and some action shots with Tigger helping)...




And after shots, with our Dr. Seuss theme. First, we squeezed the study into the front part of the room; that's a Papa Tigger custom-made desk you see. Papa Tigger calls this part of the room the collegiate gauntlet Tigger has to go through to get to his room.




We painted and put his name up, along with some Dr. Seuss wall stickers (I love eBay!).


It all goes with the Dr. Seuss bedding:


I wanted to highlight the buttons I sewed on the curtains - the colors match the bedding and wall stickers and give a pop of color to the curtains. I must give credit to our decorator for this one (though the rest of the room is all us!).
