The Boy's Kingdom

Because I'm AWESOME and totally on top of things I just realized that I never shared with you the boy's room.  I LOVE it!  It turned out so cute in all it's Dr. Seuss glory.

We got the bedding from Pottery Barn Kids.  Orginally I had planned on doing his room in retro cowboys but then I saw the Dr. Seuss and fell in love with it!  I love to read and Dr. Seuss was my favorite when I was a kid.  So I'm bound and determined that he will love books too. 


As you can see we have a LOT of diapers.  Which is good.  And those white drawers are FULL of clothes given to us by our friends.  They have a little boy and a little girl on the way.  So because they had no need for the boy clothes they passed them on to us.  Awesome!

My pal Michelle gifted these paintings to Jackson after I decided what to do his room in.  Aren't they adorable?


All the characters on the walls came from my baby shower!  The adult rocking chair was my brother's and he gave it to me to rock the boy and the little rocking chair was mine when I was a kid.  In fact all the furniture was given to us by my sister.  Her girls used it and now we are using it.  It's a room built by our family for sure!


It took me forever to find a Dr. Seuss saying I liked.  But as soon as I found this one about reading I loved it!

Even the sheets of this bedding is cute!  I really loved how the whole room turned out.  I think it is adorable and just right for my boy.  It's bright and cheery and I hope it will be a place he will grow to love!

Wow - that room is beyond adorable. I'm envious, would it be weird to do my room up like that? I mean, I'm sure tons of 20something girls have Dr. Seuss rooms!

His room came out so cute! I love it. I tried to comment on this a while ago, but my stupid computer wouldn't cooperate.

Jackson is lucky to have such a happy space.
