Welcome again friends to Hayden's room. It's been a while since you've seen it, so I'll give you a little refresher course: You can take a look at old posts { here }, { here } and { here }.  First it looked like this: (These are pictures from our house tour before we bought the house.) Then the house became ours and it was time to change things up: Then we added a little paint: and started to fix the fireplace: Here's Hayden's bed with his Land of Nod bedding: I love the shades of blue with the pops of orange. One of the reasons hubby and I chose the name Hayden was because we were both fans of the Hayden Planetarium , located at the Museum of Natural History, when we were growing up.  This bedding was a no-brainer for our little star gazer. I am not a fan of the lamps on either side of the bed, but the boys love how easy they...

Being the mother of two boys under the age of 3, I am always tired.  My boys aren't the greatest sleepers.  They are always getting up in the middle of the night for some reason.  My 3 year old: to drink water, to go to the bathroom, just because, to join us in bed... My 1 year old: he has a new tooth coming in, he's sick, he just wants to snuggle up between my husband and I...  Needless to say, the bags under my eyes are not cute right now (actually, bags are never cute), hence the lack of pictures of me right now.  :) So, the other night, instead of going to bed right after my kids had fallen asleep (which would have helped reduce such bags significantly), I spent countless hours on the internet looking up random stuff.  I suddenly fell into the land of the nightlight.  Nightlights are great because they serve a purpose, but are so much cuter than they were when I was growing up.  Now they are actually decor that adds...

I have to admit that the rooms I'm having the hardest times with are my little boys' rooms. I have a one year old and a three year old.  For now, my one year old (T) doesn't have much of an opinion when it comes to how he wants his room decorated.  On the other hand, my older son (H) likes a lot of things: dinosaurs, robots, trucks, construction vehicles, rocket ships, etc. etc.  At first I figured I would do a space-themed room that would have an orange and blue color scheme.  I bought some bedding from Land of Nod (Crate and Barrel's kids store) and figured we would work around that. I bought this comforter and the round pillow, which pays homage to the 'planet' Pluto. I thought that I would buy a set of Land of Nod's robot sheets and a pillow or two, to mix things up a bit, while still keeping to the orange and blue theme. Robot Sheets- Land of Nod So, after all of this contemplation H told me that he must have RED in his room. Hmmm.... ok... ju...
