Lee's Room...finally.

Well Lee is now officially over SIX months old and I'm finally posting pictures of his room.  Better late than never, right?

I really wanted all the big pieces in Lee's room, and most everything else for that matter, to be gender neutral so that it would work for any future children and it would grow with him better.  That decision and the fire-engine red crib really were my starting point for color choice.  
This painting is of the church right in the middle of the city square of one of the cities (Debrecen) I served in as a missionary in Hungary.
Detail of Debrecen painting. I did this when I was 6-7 months pregnant. It was hard to reach it. :)

(Kevin and I did all the artwork in Lee's room with the exception of the print of Jesus with children on the back left wall.)
(Kevin made this table and the footrest and I made the quilt.)
(As you can see, since I took some of the pictures, we added more clothes space to Lee's dresser.)
(one of my favorite things is the crib, it was Kevin's when we was a baby.)





This is Lee's "I just attacked this stuffed animal in my hand" face.

My first quilt. I made this pattern up but got the idea for how to piece the color stripes together from a quilting book I have.

The mobile here is actually from Lee's Pack N' Play, it fits perfectly on his crib too.





     As you can see, Lee got a little bored of taking all these pictures of his room. :)

      Heidi, Thank you!!! You have always been a huge support in all my endeavors, artistic and otherwise. :) Annie is going to bring Lee and I in to visit sometime soon, since I don't know where the new mailroom is. :)

    The room is so cute! I love that you both did all the artwork. You can tell the love that went into his room. :) The quilts are great too! He is a doll and I love all the pictures of him in this post. I love the stage he is going into. It just keeps getting better and better!

      Thanks Shirley! It was more fun than it should have been to get Lee's room ready. (Can't imagine having that much time now.)
      He really does seem to be getting more fun everyday, I'm just trying to soak it all up.
