The Boys' Bedroom

We've flip-flopped a few times on whether or not Ronan and Latham should share a room. They shared a bedroom at the old house and it worked out fine. When we moved to our current house we gave them the choice to have their own rooms or to share again. They chose to share. It was working fine till a few months ago when Latham starting waking Ronan up continually and Ronan was constantly tired. We separated the boys until yesterday when they convinced us once again to let them share a room, and they even persuaded Daddy to put up the bunkbed!

Daddy and his helpers moved in Ronan's bed.

Construction begins. It didn't take very long.

He got the boys to help attach the ladder.


Ronan and Latham scrambled up to the top bunk as soon as Daddy gave the okay.

There's a small window on the wall that the bunk bed is on and it spans the lower and upper bunks. This picture was taken looking up at the boys above.

Yay for a new bunk bed!

There is a bank of drawers on one side, and a desk on the other side. The only thing left to do is get a set of curtains for the large window - red, I think; unless I can get the exact shade of blue which probably won't happen.

The artwork that I made to match the boys' comforters is hanging on the wall to the right of the large window. I also have an idea for another piece of custom artwork for their room. Perhaps a trip to Micheals will be on the agenda for tomorrow so I can pick up the supplies I need!
