One thing leads to another...

I came up with an idea months ago to surprise Gavin with a little Lego workstation in his room right before Christmas.  We haven't let him get any of the 'real' Legos yet, and told him when he was 5 he could ask for them for Christmas.  BUT...that means I need an area for him to work that won't leave them all over the house, and an area that he can be away from Riley.  So, I came up with the perfect idea in my head.  Now I just have to get it to really happen!

I already bought him this storage unit.  I'm really excited about it!

Now, I have to build a table/desk to go in this certain area of his room.  I can't find one that fits the nook in his room for a reasonable price, so I think building one is going to be our only option.  Let's hope I can pull that off.  Now that I'm working on this, Jarrod got the idea to surprise him with a whole room redo...changing out the sports theme to a Star Wars theme.  I know Gavin would LOVE a Star Wars room, but I have to see what we can do on a budget.  The Pottery Barn Kids stuff is so so cute, but definitely pricey!  And, not to mention we also have to buy Riley a new dresser since she decided to knock hers over and break it (thankfully, she didn't get hurt!!)

I can't wait to post updates of how his room looks!!
