Small World

Big Sister is still loving her new room!  It's so bright and cheery.  Little Bud especially likes her Small World dolls, he points to them and says, "girl" when he wants to play with a particular one!  We have yet to finish the painting over her bed (John has been crazy busy with work lately, and there is no way I can draw well enough to finish it out on my own!), but we're hoping to get that done soon.  I love that there are so many sentimental pieces in both of the kids rooms.  Big Sister's bed was given to her by John's Aunt Tammy (who also gave Big Sister her giraffe neck pillow for Christmas, which she cuddles with EVERY single night!), her dresser was John's mom's from when she was growing up.  John and his dad made the little book shelf that's under the window together when John was a kid.  Her kitchen set was her Aunt Jamie's (her GeoSafari globe belonged to Aunt Jamie as well!).  Papa Jack made her table and chair set for her several Christmases ago.  Her Small World dolls were Christmas gifts from grandparents and great grandparents!  And Grammie made her chair cover and pillows for her little reading nook.  Big Sister is one blessed and loved little girl!   

John and his dad made the little book shelf below the window together
when John was a kid.  Big Sister loves that Daddy gave her something that was his!



Somehow I didn't take a picture of this wall when I took the rest of the photos in the post,
so this is a picture I snapped Christmas morning (which is why things are a bit messy!).

 
"Small World" inspired sun

Big Sister's cousin sent her the painting that's hanging below her shelves.  So sweet :)
The little music box that's to the right of the Japanese doll was a gift from Papa and Grams.
It's a beautiful music/jewelry box that they got for her in Sorrento. 

This mirror is currently in hiding, after Little Bud pulled it off the wall 3 times!
Hopefully we'll be able to rehang it again soon.
