Greetings! This past Sunday Adam made the momentous jump into the (so-far, fingers crossed) terrific twos! And with this big-boy birthday came some big-boy events, a new big-boy bed, a big-boy party, and all around big-boy fun. Adam was of course spoiled-rotten by family and loved every minute of it. He was thrilled to see the party had his favorite theme of Cars and a wonderful time was had by all. We were so glad that my grandparents, Nonnie and Petesie, were able to come out and join in the festivities as well. Ok, to be perfectly honest Nonnie wasn't just out here on a pleasure-cruise. We put her to work... work fit for a little girl and a little-girl bed that is. This weekend we went about the business of not only helping Adam into a new bed, but also in converting his former bachelor pad, into a co-ed/brother and sister living in peaceful harmony/tranquil haven. Now you may be asking yourself how one could invite their grandmother over for a visit and then put her to work painting walls, but if you want a ceiling done right, you bring in Michelangelo, and if you want a beautiful nursery wall, you bring in Nonnie and my fabulous mother as well. You've probably heard of their early work: Lisa'a Jungle Nursery, a true creative feat. As well as my mom and sister's beautiful work on Adam's original House on Pooh Corner walls. :)
We worked during the morning adding a few flowery touches to the room, while Matt used his handy-man capabilities putting said big-boy bed together, and by party time the room looked great. It is really fun to see the room coming together and Adam growing into a little boy. The year between Adam's first and second birthday flew by and with all of the wonderful surprises and changes this year has brought our family, I can't wait to see what the next year will bring.

Looks like it was a great party! Happy Birthday Adam. I love the new big boy bed and the flowers on the wall for the new baby girl are so cool. Congrats on your baby turning 2! He is such a cute little man.

Awww there's Adam in his big boy bed! Love the changes you're making to the room. The flowers are fabulous. And look at the pretty pregnant lady! Won't be long before little Cherry Chip will be joining the crew. Happy belated birthday, Adam!
Hooray!! So adorable! What a big boy, and what a lovely room for your children!! Love you all!
I always love your posts, Carly! What beautiful rooms for Adam and the baby! Carly, you look so beautiful with your belly! Seeing Adam with his cake, it's funny to think back to his 1st birthday and his cake 'exploration'.
Lots of love!
