First, Maggie still exists. Since the news of the baby, Maggie has not been mentioned much. She is doing great and we are trying to prepare her for Ruthie, but I don't think she really understands when we tell her she will have a new baby sister soon and will have to share momma and daddy!
So a few weeks ago I posted about how we cleaned out the extra room to make it into a nursery. So step one was done and here is step 2: Painting.
Before
Matt priming
I helped with the priming and painting also and for all those who were worried. I was painting with latex paint, in a well ventilated room, with this face mask on!
Matt painting
Susan came over to help! It really helped to have the extra person!

Matt and I started taping and priming at 10:30 and we ended the painting at 3:30! It went by so fast and was so easy. We even took breaks between priming and each paint coat. I think we made great timing! You think Ruthie will like the color? Matt says the room now reminds him of a meadow!
Finally, I drew this as a practice for painting this on a large canvas to put over Ruthie's bed. I just don't know what verse we will use yet. Good thing we have a few months!
