the girls room.

i love saying that..."the girls room".
makes me excited for what's to come.
if you've read this blog for a while, you might remember hadley and kohen's room.
kohen slept in that room for only a few months, because he proved to be much more vocal than we anticipated, thus, waking hadley up all. the. time.
dangit.
so, we moved kohen into our room (we have a separate sitting area, which has now become kohens' room).
hadley's room will be shared with elsa, once she gets home.

i wanted to show the fun wall that i've put together.
it's still missing some items (frame for the invite, flowers for the pink vase on the wall, and a few other doo-dads) but it's just so sweet...especially that hadley and elsa sign:
a sweet blogger friend, won a sign from cardboard sheek, and gave it to me---how nice was that?  i'm telling ya, the blogging world has some amazing people in it.  i'm lucky to have so many nice folks that read this blog.  for real.
so, the sign came last week and i put it up, immediately!  i love it.
loooooooove it!

"hadley and elsa" sign - cardboard sheek
yellow fabric, orange polka dot fabric - michael miller
pink thing-a-ma-bob, embroidery hoop, aqua picture frame, bambi picture - goodwill
"elsa" embroidery hoop art - little dear
invite from my sprinkle - paper and pigtails


another awesome gift i've gotten for their room?
this painting from lindsay at paint me a picture:
lindsay is great.  and so is her shop.  go check it out.
she even has a painting for sale that the proceeds will go to our adoption fund.

soooo, once elsa is home and i get everything in order, i'll do a full tour.  the stripes on the wall are staying (i love the stripes)...furniture has moved around and i've added pink accents in there now, since i can because it's a girls room.  yah, a girlS room.
i'm excited.

{and no, we have NO IDEA when we will be leaving to go get elsa.  so we continue to wait.  rather impatiently.  you can pray that our paperwork would be re-submitted this week.  that would be a miracle.}

  34. What an awesome room! I love that it isn't all themey and one dimensional. And this room is already full of LOVE!! Can't wait for Elsa to start jumping on the bed with Hadley. I bet you will hear little voices in the night many, many times. Music to yours and Mr. A's ears, I am sure!
