Avery's Room

Avery's room used to be our guest room. (We love having guests so please know that you are always welcome...we will find a "new" place for you!)

We have been busy these last couple of months transforming this room into our little girl's room!! We love the panda and butterfly theme and hope she will too!!

In mid August, we had asked Avery's foster family some questions (through our agency). In doing so, we learned that Avery has been sleeping in the same bed as her foster parents. So, we are planning on having her sleep in a "big girl bed" right away while we take turns sleeping on a pop-up trundle next to her during the transition period. Matthew and Ethan plan on taking turns sleeping next to her too!

The dressers are Tera's from her childhood and are still in beautiful condition! We look forward to discovering Avery's interests so that we can fill her shelves with books and other decorative items!

UPDATE:  After we met Avery and saw how active she was, we decided that Avery would be safer in a crib. Shortly after arriving home from China, we assembled our crib but still kept up her twin bed. Mommy and Daddy took turns sleeping on the twin bed in her room while Avery slept safely and comfortably in her crib. It worked out very well! Avery now sleeps very soundly in her crib and we sleep comfortably in our own bed as well!
