After many attempts to escape his crib that ended with bloody noses
and busted lips we decided to upgrade Owen to a big boy bed/room. It
actually ended up being perfect timing too since his little brother will
be here in 15 short weeks and we really did not want to have to buy
another crib. Before Owen was born we decided on a surfer theme for our
California boys nursery. We loved it because we knew it was one that
could grow with him. I think his room turned out super cute! When we
upgraded his room we moved both the crib and the glider with ottoman
into Carson's room, brought in a twin bed, moved the bookshelf to the
hallway between the boys rooms so they could share books, and moved the
dresser from under the window to the wall opposite of his bed. We also
added shelves in his closet with bins to hold some of his toys. All in
all it was an easy upgrade and we love the way his big boy room turned
out.

| Mike made this the summer before Owen arrived. We actually lagged and recently put his name on it. |
 |
| The woody coat rack/shelf was made by uncle Brian and the picture next to the surfboard is one Mike drew in first grade. |
 |
| The tree is the guest book from his baby shower and the shadow box is from his baptism. |

| Quilt is from Pottery Barn Kids. |

Stay tuned I will be posting Carson's vintage airplane themed nursery soon!
