Getting our nursery painted :-)

Well we've started work on little Tic Tac's bedroom. Yesterday we went to Bunnings to pick out the paint colour and get the necessary materials to paint the room. I felt so inexperienced because I really had no idea what I would need for the job. We just walked through that section and picked out the things that looked essential. I was asking Josh to help me pick out the paint colour and his response was "I don't know. Bubba won't even remember what colour his room is!" I think he wants me to finish nesting LOL.

Anyway I got home and spent the afternoon putting painting tape around the edges of the room and power points. It took a lot longer than I was expecting. Today I taped some newspaper to the floor and Josh fixed the minor dints that were in the walls. Now all we have to do is wash down the walls with sugar soap, sand paper back the wall filler and we will be able to start painting next weekend. I'm hoping by the following weekend, we'll have the paint job finished and the wall paper up. I'm so glad I didn't leave this all until I was super pregnant because it's not easy work.

Here's a before photo so that I can document the process. I'm going to take another one after the walls are done and then a final photo of the completed nursery. So exciting!!!

On another note, Josh actually got to see Tic Tac kicking me last night :-) He's finally started kicking hard enough for it to be noticeable on the outside. He's not very active though. He kicks mostly at night and I almost never feel him kick during the day. He's going to be a night owl like his Daddy.
