Room in progress

So Otto's room is the coolest you have ever seen, really it is. I painted the walls and ceiling green like I mentioned before, then added coat after coat of magnetic, then chalkboard paint around the bottom of all the walls for added coolness. To top it all off my mom came down and painted HUGE dinosaurs on the walls along with ferns to blend the black into the green. Because she loves to paint it was not hard to get her to agree to come help do up his room. She couldn't help herself with the cuteness and added baby dinosaurs popping out of eggs in the ferns. We moved Otto to his new room two weeks ago, after we got rid of all the ladders and paint. I am sure he would have liked it just fine with all that cool stuff to climb on but it would have made me nervous. Prior to moving him into his new room we played in there a lot in an attempt to get him used to the new space. I really thought it was going to be tough changing rooms with him. As it was it went off without a hitch. He has been sleeping great there. It has the added bonus of not being in the front of the house so the traffic noise us much less. Plus there isn't the ambient glow from the street lights so it is darker. He really seems to love his new room. Now when he goes upstairs if we say "where is Otto's room?" he goes right down the hall and pushes the door open. I will post some pictures of what it looks like finished, but here is it in the works.

The master at work

One nice reward for a hard day painting, you get to cuddle with a cute boy on the couch and read him stories, not bad.
