We did it!!! We switched all the rooms around! Truth be told...we did a few weeks ago. Like I said - it's survival mode here at the Shephard house people! Nevertheless - this is an exciting post!

We moved our guestroom into the office to make it a dual-purpose space and then moved Evelyn out of the nursery and into her "big girl room" and then the most exciting move of all...Aurelia out of our room and into the nursery!!! We have our Mommy-Daddy space once again!

So here are the BEFORE pictures of the front bedroom/office:

Here are the DURING photos:

We wanted to repaint the room a lighter color so we had to prime the walls first - Jason was thrilled.

After the primer was up we repainted the space - Champagne Tickle - such a happy little color.

We decided to get all the carpets professionally cleaned so that meant everything in all the rooms had to find a place in the living room...

For all you who really know me...you can imagine how thrilled I was with this arrangement.

Aurelia didn't seem to mind the chaos - such a prime seat for TV viewing!

Good thing we weren't entertaining.

DRUM ROLL PLEASE!!!

The AFTER photos!

The space turned out pretty nicely and is ready for guests! So if you are in the mood for some good BBQ then come visit!

The living room even cleaned up pretty nicely. Our extra couch is out here now - not sure how long it'll stay this way - but for the time being it's nice having the extra seating.

Now for Evelyn's Big Girl room!

This is hanging outside Evelyn's new room.

Aurelia has one too!

Another shot of her new dresser and fun wall decorations!

We found these great butterflies to hang from the ceiling - they are perfect for her garden themed bedroom!

We still have some work to do - I'm not too crazy about the arrangement of all the things on the shelves.

This is Evelyn's new bed. It'll grow with her eventually expanding into a twin sized bed. She absolutely LOVES this little space. Jason and I were amazed at how easy of a transition it was to move her in here! She hasn't had one problem adjusting to life without her crib.

See what I mean?

WHEW! That was a lot of work and we're happy to have it behind us! One last shot of my two little princesses. Life is crazy and we're exhausted - but man is it good!
