Been trying to figure out why I can’t seem to get anything done around here. People keep telling me it’s because I have a 4 month old. Whatever the reason, there hasn’t been a lot of home improvement happening here lately. I did sneak in one quick project though. I got Caleb’s name in paper mache letters at JoAnn’s, spray painted them a happy shade of green, and hung them above his changing table.

I know his room has a transportation theme, but I still think it’s cool how his name is sort of guitar shaped this way. Maybe he’ll follow in his daddy’s six-stringed instrument playing footsteps.

Whenever I tackle a quick and easy project like this, I’m impressed with how finished a room looks with a little something on the walls. And while Peter and I still have lots of big home improvement projects on our mental to-do list, it feels good to be taking some teeny tiny baby steps toward a house that feels totally “us”.

To summarize… one project down, fifty bazillion left to go…
