    Looks like you are all ready for your son. The fox theme is great. My first grandchild had a Muppet & Robot theme and his name is Hank. Didn’t know the gender of the baby. Enjoy all the wonderful times with your new son. That first year goes by way too fast. I’m anxious to hear when he makes his big appearance!!

      We got some robot themed sheets for the crib that are super cute! 🙂
      I’m excited and impatient to meet him and then yes, time can slow down. I want to enjoy every moment!

    Hmmmm I’ve been thinking about taking the doors of a closet in my guest room. Was it very hard to do? (I realize you may not get to this question for a while!)

      I meant I want to take the doors OFF a closet.. sheesh.

      It was really easy. They were old sliding doors that didn’t stay on the track very well. We removed the doors on the all the closets in the rest of the house and replaced them with updated doors that fold open. But that room we never did.

      There was an old dresser we planned on using but it was really big, so to save space in the nursery I decided I wanted to put it in the closet and take the doors off instead. I saw this on pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/237635317815244886/ and thought that might be a good option for saving space.

      Michael took the doors off (super easy), and then removed the top hardware and the bottom hardware and painted the closet and installed new shelves. It was really simple and I’m glad we took the doors off. It makes the room look bigger and it’s more functional for what we are using it for. At some point we might change that and put new doors on but for now it works.

        Oooh thanks for the Pinterest link! I love the way it looks with the closet interior painted – which is insane given that I’m the queen of the splotch test 🙂

          We debated on doing the closet a different color than the room and in the end I’m really glad we did it. I think it looks really nice being a different, complimenting color. Kind of like an accent wall but not overpowering for the room.
