Alex's Room

Since we painted Jaxon's room, we decided to go ahead and paint Alex's while we had the supplies and paint out!

Alex had recently gotten a new Buzz Lightyear bedding set, so we gave Alex a few different color options that matched his bedding and let him pick out which one he wanted.  Because his latest favorite color is blue, he chose a solid blue wall with a green chair rail around the middle of the room.  We decided just to use the same blue shade we used for Jaxon's room - it is a really great shade of blue (not too dark, but not too light either).  For the chair rail, we used a green that was similar to the green on Buzz's space suit - it think the name of the color we used was "Spinach"  :)

He loves his new room and can't stop talking about it!  And even though I complained about doing it (I kept telling Larry that there was so much more I could be doing to get ready for Jaxon, rather than painting Alex's room at 8+ months pregnant), I am so happy with how the room turned out.  Seeing Alex's face light up when he saw it was worth everything!

Here are pictures of Alex's room:
