Labor of Love

Stockton was getting too big for his crib. After looking for new "big boy" beds, we couldn't find anything we liked or that would match Stockton's other bedroom furniture. Brady had a great idea. He decided that he would sand down his bed from when he was a little boy and restain it for Stockton.


He put in a lot of hours sanding. Thank you, NBA lockout, for allowing my husband the time to do this!


Then he stained it a color we love.


Stockton was so excited for his new bed! It's the perfect bed, complete with drawers beneath it.


Then we ordered a new bedspread for him. I let Stockton choose it, he choose "worker trucks!" He was so excited when they came in the mail! (Note: he's laying on our bed in the picture, not his new bed.)


And here's the finished project! Thank you Daddy for working so hard on my big boy bed! And here's the double bonus, there are actually two beds and they can be used seperate or as bunk beds and Brady finished them both at the same time! So it's ready for future use!

Next we need to get his room all decorated in "worker trucks." We have some curtains and some wall decals that match his bedspread, but we have yet to put them up.
