- Painted the room
- Pulled up the old carpeting
- Cleaned and treated the wood floors
- Installed new quarter round for the molding
- Installed new saddles for the closet doors
- Sold her old dressers and desk
- Moved in a large dresser from another room
- Got new bedding & lamp shades & pillows
- Made new window treatments
- Installed new wooden blinds
- Ordered a "sleeper" chair
Whew! Too bad we don't have a before picture because it's hard to appreciate how bad the room looked before. Leah wants my mom to wait until she gets home to hang up the "artwork" and to buy an area rug. We'll post some final pictures after that is done.

Leah's Room
Here are a couple of pictures of Leah's room. My mom has been working really hard to get it all done before Leah comes home on Friday for the Thanksgiving break. The pictures aren't great but this is what she's done so far:

That is just beautiful.. We did the wood floors upstairs a few years ago and all the painting.. Mom and Dad are making big messes but the whole upstairs turned out really nice. Mom enjoyed helping Dad with the floor. She said it was like a puzzle putting it all together. The sanding was the hardest part but really worth it..

Pedro,
I did see the room before and it doesn't look a thing like it! Your Mom did a beautiful job, and she has the blisters to prove how hard she worked!
Leah is a lucky girl!

Hi Pedro!!! Mom is finally getting us caught up with our friends! We have read all the posts we missed and loved the 3 boys on the couch. Also Leah will love this room! What alot of work and such a great job your mom did. Mom says if she gets bored to come to our house! We could use some help!

Wow! Your mom has done a great job and so much great work! The room looks wonderful and Leah will love it I am sure. What great colors in the artwork too. Uh, Pedro, will you and MM be able to sleep up on that nice bed with Leah?

Pee Ess: How is Libby doing? PooPoo had a big pee and poo explosion today while mom was out working.....we think Bear was taunting her through the bathroom door!
Pedro!!!!!!!!!!!! My mom is such a tired ding dong!!!!!!!!! She got you confused with Rambo....and realizes and knows that MM lives with Rambo and not you. My mom needs to sleep more. Sorry we got you mixed up. You are 3 of my most favorite "little" dawgs, you know!

We are sure that Leah will love this new room. Your mom sure did do a lot of work and made it look very nice. We are looking forward to the finished room pictures. Can you jump up on that bed, Pedro?
Boy, is Leah gonna be happy when she gets home!
I am so excited to see my room tomorrow!!!
I think it's funny how you tried to hide the fabric you used for the window treatments from me...not thinking I would look here.
well I did :)
LOVE IT AND I LOVE YOU!!!!
Leah
What a great job your mom did! Are you going to sleep in it with your sister?
Your friend,
Niamh
your mom is good at spending money and redecorating! Hmmm, I think I recognize that picture, soul sister!
love ya, thanks for stopping by!
Your mom did a great job, Pedro! I am sure Leah will love her room.

oh, I *didn't* write what I was thinking--or it didn't come out the way I meant it--that your Mom is awesome at redecorating--I've never known a handier woman! I bet Leah is home now so y'all are having awesome fun and won't be online? And Pedro, please ask your Mom to tell me, how did she *make* the curtains??? Has she been hising a sewing talent from me? 'Cause I have a sewing machine that I need to learn how to use...?
hising? what the heck is hising? Hiding, I meant. Duh...sometimes we northeast badgers ain't so smart. Ayuh.
I think Leah will be pleased with her room! Your mom did an excellent job! Love, Dino
your mom sure did make that room look pretty. we think Leah will be very impressed.
woofs.
So Pedro.........How did Leah like her room????

oooh... we can't wait to see the "after" pictures. It looks great so far. After spending our first year in an apartment with white walls, we are looking forward to the day we can decorate!
