A couple of weeks ago, we had a contractor come in and change the one large bedroom downstairs back into two bedrooms. Originally, when the house was built it was two bedrooms, but Matt's parents changed it to one large bedroom when he was little because they felt bad for him that his two older brothers got huge bedrooms upstairs, so they wanted to give him one huge bedroom downstairs. Now, Matt is wanting it to be two bedrooms and so we hired the contractor to do it. Are you seeing a pattern... Matt wants and Matt gets! Ha Ha!! I measured the room and drew the existing plan and the proposed plan on AutoCAD and we sent it to the contractor. It's been an exciting process!! Anyways, below are the pictures of the before room. The closet on the right was added originally for the one large bedroom. We had it removed and created two closets in the middle of the two new rooms.
If you see the beams above, this is where the new walls are going to be placed.
New walls are coming along!
Just inside Roman's new room!
Roman's new closet is on the right.
Same wall is now getting gypsum board put on
Roman's closet has a door now!
The entry door to Roman's new room! The contractors finished in five days!! We were amazed!
To save money, Matt decided for us to paint all of the new trim, doors, and walls. Oh how fun!!! We painted straight through the entire weekend! In between watching Roman and eating, all we did was paint! Roman's new room had to have stripes on it too!!
I'm going crazy with paint!! Not to mention that we were both sick with sinus infections and I had an ear infection. I can honestly say that I not once smelled the paint!!!
A couple of days later... The finished product!! Roman's crib is where the old closet used to be.
The room is the size of a real nursery now!
Roman loves his new room!!!
It was a fun couple of weeks!! We worked so hard! The other room adjacent to Roman's is now the guest bedroom. The house has 5 bedrooms with 4 baths!! We definitely have plenty of space now!!! We worked so hard and enjoyed the time together!! It's been fun! Now time to relax!

Wow, you have done so much! You have inspired me. Now I really need to get it together on our little guy's room!
Everything looks great! I've enjoyed reading about Roman's accomplishments. Now that I am about to start Mathew on rice cereal I think I'll need to look back at Roman's experience with it. :)
