We "flip-flopped" our house on New Year's Eve/Day. Anyone who has visited our humble abode knows of our space constraints in our Cape Cod. When we moved in 2-1/2 years ago, the movers could not get our California king mattress upstairs. So, we opted to put our bedroom on the first floor "temporarily". Then, Vaughn came along and we put him on the first floor, too. As convenient as that was (we only have one bathroom and it is on the first floor), we were not using our square footage to its maximum capacity.
As Vaughn snoozed away 2007 and into 2008, Mommy and Daddy moved the master bedroom upstairs and our guest room and office downstairs. Sounds easy enough...not really. We tried several different ways to get our king mattress up the stairs (I mean, what do movers know anyway??) We even resorted to taking the mattress into the front yard (around midnight) and attempted to ram it up the staircase. Big shock, but we had NO luck! We already had a full-size bed on the second floor in our guest room, so we (drastically) down-sized and compromised. We then moved Vaughn's room the following day.
The pictures show a few of the transformations. The pink walls are "temporary" and will hopefully be masked by a soothing tan when the weather is warm enough to open the windows -- we are very aware that the color is nauseating! Vaughn loves the monkeys and "na-na-nas" in his room.
