Sneak peek inside Maddie's Nursery and Nolan's big boy room!

The past few months have been devoted to transformation office/closet/storage for random crap room into little sisters nursery. Amongst taking on that project we decided to also upgrade Nolan to a big boy room. Thank goodness for his love of baseball and the Orioles we didn't need to paint his room. Although he was pretty adamant on having blue painted walls, but after a lot of convincing he agreed the Orioles room should just be orange and black, no blue accent wall needed. 
Here's a few pictures of sister's almost empty room with an open window to the hallway and some ugly old carpet. 
I should have taken some before pictures of Nolans room too but I am pregnant and just plain forgot. 

That exciting trip to Home Depot where you are so excited to envision what's about to happen!

Operation built in shelves for Maddie's nursery to close off the opening!

My father-in-law and Hubby knocked out this project so fast! I am SO happy with how it turned out. (Yes, that is Nolan in a baseball uniform because that's just what he does...daily) 

The cutest little helper in the world has been so excited to be involved in the preparations for his sister! 

I blinked and my amazing husband managed to paint her room! :) 

Thank you Pinterest for the color scheme I fell in love with for her room. 

And then the day I had been waiting for finally came.....
New carpeting in both Nolan and Maddie's rooms!!!! Nolan was equally as excited as me!!! 

So we took off our socks and danced and laid on the fresh new carpets! This is where it got really fun, time for furniture and decorating! We decided to do white furniture for sisters room which means we now have Nolan's old crib stored in our basement because this mama doesn't want to part with it quite yet. 

Seriously, that man is the best and his little sidekick was next to him the whole time (karate chopping the package paper, but there nonetheless). This also puts into perspective how tiny Madelyn's nursery is. Sorry baby girl!!

And let's not forget about Nolan's big boy room! We got his bed from ikea and new mattress from Costco (they sell Sealys!)

He was so excited and enjoyed the ride!

And now for the big reveal of both of their rooms! :)

Madelyn Ann's nursery:

Nolan James big boy room: 
Apparently I took this picture before the drawers in his bed were installed. They are there now, I promise. 



Aunt Gin made the bow board and mobile in Maddie's room (and SO much more). She also spoiled Nolan with his baseball wall decal and made him the adorable coat rack that we hang his hats and bath robe on. She is so talented!! We love you Aunt Gin!! 

Aunt Lainy spoiled Nolan with the Orioles light in his room!! He uses it as a night light every night!!

And lastly, 
The world's best husband bought a matching picture frame for Madelyn's nursery because all our babies need their Grammy always watching over them! <3 

Now, I just need a few more weeks to knock a few more things off my "to-do" list and get our bags packed up and then we will officially be ready to meet baby sister!!!!!
