Big Girl Room
So, we are finally transitioning Ellie out of her crib. Yes, we’ve drug our heels on this, because she has never been a great sleeper, and we were scared. (We are still scared.) But, the time has come where it’s starting to get a little weird, so here we are, selecting the pieces for her “big girl room.”
She said she wanted blue, so here is my inspiration board for the space.
I’ve ordered the bedding, a bed and the dresser. We have the little clear plastic jar, and she picked out the lamp at Target this week herself (it was a proud moment).

5. Little printed cases
6. Dresser
7. Plastic jar
8. Prints (1 and 2)
9. Striped rug
