This was sad to do. I've used the same "nursery" for all 3 kids and loved the furniture and decor. I had a lump in my through watching it get carried down and Rory cried, clinging on to the crib rail, because "I've had such good memories in here!!!!". Little does he know that his father had the same issue which caused his grandmother to keep the crib in the cellar so that he could "visit" whenever he wanted. No can do in my house. Now I just need to figure out how to sell this gently used, lovely set so that it can be removed from my front enclosed porch.
Alas, Kelly is over 3 and calling me to help her get up so she can go pee in the morning. Not okay. So, I finally broke down, bought a trundle bed, dresser, and nightstand. Kelly will stay in her room for a couple of months to get used to the big girl bed and not waking everyone up and then she will move in with Shelagh and Rory will get his own room. Finally, he will be removed from the yellow and pink decor that has surrounded him for 3 1/2 years. What a good sport. To celebrate, he has been gifted with a huge Star Wars Death Star (thank you, Pottery Barn Kids, for ripping me off for this one) that has tiny pin lights that turn on and off and take up most of a wall. He will love it.
