So we found out that Ian likes sandboxes last night. Go figure, a boy that likes to play in the sand. I know, not that big of a surprise. We went to check out the house again last night (hopefully we’ll be hearing something within the next week, but I’m not holding my breath) and there is a horse shoe pit already dug. While Jesse was checking out the inside, Ian and I went outside to play in the backyard and he found the sand. Man did he get dirty.

Since we saw the house again, I went a took a quick look at what would be Ian’s room and decided that the previous color scheme wouldn’t work. There is white molding around the top of his room, so adding another white strip in the middle wouldn’t work as well. Never fear, I’ve already found a new theme I like. I found it at Home Depot, but Behr Paints has Disney themes and one of their themes (My Friends Tigger and Pooh) has a really cute design. Now, I’m not going to decorate Ian’s room in Winnie the Pooh, but the basic idea of it is really doable. The concept is the 100 acre woods, where you have green grass, blue skies, and white clouds with some trees thrown in. All I would have to do is leave off the Pooh characters and it would be a great outdoor theme that is also light and fun. Here’s the sample pic and color palette. If you click on the first picture, it’ll take you to a virtual tour of the room. Now remember, I wouldn’t be adding the Pooh stencils, but the basic design is really cute. So what do you think?
