Nixon's Room

I bet you never new that Dave was an interior designer!! He was set on doing Nixon's room all by himself with all of his own ideas. So I handed the project over to him, and WOW what an awesome job he did!!


Before shot.  He did tons!!












Dave's sister Amanda made and wrote this awesome Nursery Rhyme just for Nixon.
She did an awesome job, we absolutely love it and it will be so fun to read to him as he grows.

Tick tock, tick tock...
Time stands still,
The arrival of "Little N" has come,
All have awaited your reveal

Born as "Little N: --
Come from a Princely Home
This Estate you have chosen
For a special purpose of your own.

Born to care for and taken care of by three--
Three little girls as heavenly and royal as any Princess' should be,

You are their guardian, defender, and friend
Your loyalty, love, and respect knows no end,
For you are their brother--never forget "Little N'--
Brotherhood is a status you cannot pretend.

Mommy and Daddy knew you were there,
Your presence was felt through sincere, humble prayer.
Hearts wer filled with love and joy
When they heard you were coming--their first little boy.

No doubt to you a buddy your daddy forever will be
Wakeboarding, snowboarding... oh, the places you'll see.
A mentor, a teacher, a spiritual man,
When you fear, when you fall, Daddy will take you by the hand.

A mommy so nurturing, kind gentle, and smart
When you cry, when you hurt, she will mend your broken heart.
Giggling, playing, a world to explore,
Mommy will teach you of God, the world and oh so much more.

A lifetime of memories now born to create,
From "Little N" into a man you will grow, at some future date.
To be a man is to be humble, respectful, loyal, and kind
No status projects the son of God you are, keep this in mind.

A destiny" is yours in the making, yours to create.
Never allow another to bring you down to a less or lowlier state.
Now off you go "Little N"-- be who you are,
Live life to the fullest-- aim for the stars.

So with Nixon taking over the babies room we had to get bunk beds, take Tayte out of her crib
and put all 3 girls together- oh boy!
They all adjusted super good.  Tayte does great in a "big girls" bed.  She fell off a couple
times but now know to sleep right by the wall:)  She stays in bed all night and even in the morning
until I come and get her:)

AND we had to change their big sign form Tyler & Madix's Surf Shack
to Tyler Madix & Tayte's Surf Shack.
Thanks to Tami you can't even tell we had to redo it:)
