Congrats as well, my 3rd is arriving next month. Cool room, it will be upside down when he starts to walk so good thing you mounted everything up high. You guys look really organized, good luck with the birth and get ready to say bye bye to sleeping normally :lol:

Congratulations! We were also thinking of adding some car photos to my oldest boy's room.

I don't know if anyone mentioned but there is a thread with artwork here on Lat-G. Some of the artwork is very nice. Below are a couple examples I saw over a year ago. I'm sure there are several more. These would look great framed or even wrapped on canvas. And no I don't have any affiliation with the owners of these photos.

Well, I was wrong. It looks like an upside down 2 way roof vent that you "adapted" to a light.

Ben has some good advice too! My first (now 6) was pretty good and you could "bend" him into submission (somewhat)! Now my youngest (almost 3) could destroy an anvil in a sandbox! And doesn't know what the word stop means....no matter how many spankins he gets!!! He is not "bending" very well! DooH!!! :willy:

sweet room.
i love the simplistic look of Ikea stuff.

^^^^
yeah my daughter was great! i lucked out and she never got into anything... i didn't even finish baby proofing the house( cabinets and what not) because even and at 1.5 she would listen when you told here not to touch/mess with something.

now our second will be here in march (A BOY!) and Im betting since i had it so easy with mia, he'll be a terror and get into everything! i fear Im gonna have poison control on speed dial!!!

You guys are right and I figure some things will have to be re-arranged as he gets more active. All the pictures have command hooks as well as the regular hangers. He will have a tough time moving them around. Anything I could anchor, I anchored where it will have to un-screwed to take off.
I look forward to driving the 68 this summer with the family. My wife is ready to see the car done so he can have pictures taken in it. Everyone is telling me I will not have time anymore to work on cars.... I don't think I will have the time I have now but I will still make time to get out in the garage.

I agree and I also like the price of the IKEA stuff! He will be playing cars and baseball all over that furniture in no time. I keep telling my wife that all my parents had for me was a pack and play in their bedroom. :D I have had a good time working on the room though.

Congrats Ryan and AJ!

You will have some time, just not as much. You have to make an area in the shop/garage that is friendly enough to be able to bring him out there with you. Both my boys have spent countless hours in the garage with me. I got a tv, VCR, DVD, stereo, AC, heat and an array of toys to keep them busy. The best thing really is a Tonka dump truck. They make thousands of "laps" running around the car. Just take a few seconds every few minutes to pay attention to them. The time is well worth it to "involve" them in the garage.
