Ready for Brother!

As part of the adoption requirements through the county, beds and dressers must be available for children according to their age. We knew this as we picked out Katarina's furniture and bedding. When we decided to get the second nursery ready last year before Katarina came home, it was once again filled with decision making! That was the fun part! Keep in mind this was pre-Katarina! So, the licensing agent comes to our home to do an inspection and sees that now we have room for 2 babies (maybe we'd get twins we thought). That all gets approved and noted. Dina felt this urge to paint the 2nd nursery like Katarina's room was done. During her spring break of 2006, she took time to paint what would be the "boy" nursery. The odd part was that the second day back at work after Dina's spring break was over, the call came in about Katarina! It's a good thing that the paint job was done, because there was NO way that would ever get completed! For months now Dina had tried to get all the accessories and wall hanging up, but time was never taken to "finish" the room. Once again, Dina felt the urgency to get the room finally completed. We are just so happy with how it looks and think that it's perfect for a little boy when the time comes! Katarina likes to go in there and we talk about how this is going to be her brother's room some day. We'll see what's in store for us....
