From a boy room to a brother/sister room...

Our unique living situation has presented us with a good deal of space challenges. We have really learned what we can and cannot live without. We just don't have much room for our stuff here. All of our baby items have been in a storage unit (along with most of our other belongings). As I started going through things... I realized a lot was going to need to go back to storage. Like our baby bath tub for example. We just don't have room for it... and I realized we don't really need it. ANYWAY... we really had to think hard about how we were going to transition Claire into Carter's room. I think the room was originally designed to be a small office... but it's worked out great as a bedroom for Carter. Dan finally came up with the idea to build a loft bed for Carter. We originally wanted to put the crib under the bed... but I'm so happy with what we ended up with instead. A huge thanks to Dan's mom and dad!!! Dan and his dad spent last weekend designing and building the bed. We still can't believe how much space it's saved us. This link shows what his room looked like before. And here's what it looks like now...
