Brecken’s Big Boy Room!!

My pet project over the summer has been getting Brecken’s big boy room ready for the day that he is ready to test out life after his crib. In the immediate future, he seems to love his crib and we are in no hurry to move him. My little angel sleeps a solid 12 hours EVERY night and has been waking up between 8:30-9am all summer!!! I would be a fool to do ANYTHING to interrupt that 🙂 Summer just made sense to take care of the project since school is not in session. That said, my self-imposed deadline has been Thursday, July 22nd as I was hoping to have it finished prior to leaving for our vacations. While I don’t have it 100% done, it is definitely getting there!! I still have the trim boards to stain and put up, some finishing touches (park, buildings, airplanes, clouds, etc.), cleaning and arranging, and of course a MATTRESS to add 🙂

Here is my progress so far…. Click in the corner to make it full screen to see it better!
As you can tell, we went with a “Vroom Vroom” theme… Brecken loves all things that go, practices making “Vrooooooooooooooooom” noises when he plays with his trucks and airplanes, and whenever he sees any vehicle go by, he screams “Caaaaaaa” (car, perhaps??) in his husky little voice 🙂
“City Highways” wall…
“Chug-a-Chug-a-Chug-a-CHOO-CHOO” wall…
“Construction Zone” wall…
“City meets country” wall….
Again, I am not at all done but thought I would share the progress thus far… I have had several people ask how it is turning out, so instead of sending individual emails I thought a blog update would be quicker!
A car bed….. COOL!
Checking himself out in the mirrors in his garden….


A few close-ups…. I added some personal touches to a few vehicles 🙂 He loves to look at pictures and likes for us to say the names of people… Especially his “little people” friends and cousins so we thought he would appreciate it more this way…

Uncle Aaron and Uncle Ryan both work for Knight Refrigerated in Green Bay, WI so Brecken wanted Mommy to make a Knight truck!
