Tyler's big boy room

Hubby and I have been hard at work this past week to disassemble, paint and reassemble Tyler's new (used) set of bunk beds!! It was solid white with purple accents and purple donut knobs on the drawers. We painted everything that you see in the blue color and changed the knobs out for balls!! There are baseballs, basketballs, footballs, and soccer balls. We won't actually move him into his big boy room until my friend leaves after her visit next week, but we did let him in to have a sneak peak. He went WILD!! HE kept running back and forth shouting "new bed" and "baseballs on window!" Here are some pictures. It looks pretty bare at the moment because we haven't moved in any of his toys or stuffed animals :)

He doesn't know that there is a top bunk and we plan on keeping it that way for now :D The ladder is safely hidden :)

That is so cute, Missy! You did a great job painting and I love the knobs! Your curtains are cute too! Gosh, Tyler looks so tiny in that big bed!!! :D Smart move on the ladder! ;)

I LOVE it!! :D So so very cute...great job. WOW!! :D

WOW!!!! Great Job on the bunk bed!! Tyler, looks so cute and tiny in his new bed! gerat job mom! looks like Tyler has given it a huge seal of approval!

Looks great! :)

Adorable! :) :) :)

*sigh* I remember when I got my first big girl bed!! Tyler MUST be excited! I LOVE his room!!

Aww, he looks absolutly THRILLED! :D

Thanks everybody :D :D
I know what you guys mean about him looking tiny!! I hope that the transition from his toddler bed which has a crib size mattress to his new bed which has a twin size mattress won't seem too scary!!

Just as a little note, I put latches on each of those little drawers and it was SUCH a pain :rolleyes: I was planning on taking them out once he's old enough to know not to climb on then but I may end up leaving them on permanently and just teaching him how to work them :rolleyes: :D

Those bunk beds look like so much fun! When Tyler's brother grows, will they share the bunkbeds?

Yes *sniffle* :D That will go in the boy's room when they are old enough to share!!

I love it Missy!! Tell Tyler, when he gets tired of that room, I'll take it. ;) Great job!!

wow, I love it and the way the bed is tucked underneath you dont have to worry about hom rolling off! Very cool!

Very cute! What a handsome little model Tyler is, too :)

That looks great!

You did a fantastic job! He's going to LOOOVE it.
Hey - want to renovate my room for me? ;)

It's so handsome, I love the color! He looks so little in there! :)

Wow what a beautiful job you did on the bed! I can tell he loves it :D

And now Tyler will know for sure that he is the BIG brother - since he has his own big bed.

I think it is smart to leave those locks on the drawers - climbing would be exactly what a boy would think of to do................
The room is just darling - great colors!

Aahhhh. Sweet.

I always read your posts about your son with such nostalgia. My "baby" is almost sixteen years old now, and sometimes I so miss the "little boy" days. Enjoy every precious moment ... time flies.
