Moms of boys--nursery color?

What color is your son's room? Originally DS's room was green (he was a suprise baby), but we moved to a house when he was a few months old and I want to paint his room now. I don't want to do green again (we're painting another room green for future babies) and I'm looking for some ideas. TIA!

Re: Moms of boys--nursery color?
DS1 room was green.
when i got PG w/#2, we decided that regardless of the sex the bottom half of the room would be gray (the carpet in the room that we are using for #2 is a blue gray color, so we wanted to make it look as gray/neutral as possible). if the baby had ended up being a boy, the top half of the room would have been orange...
Do you have bedding? If so, I'd color-match to a color in there. DS's nursery is sortof yellowish - same as the background color of his bedding.
New Baby's room will be primarily green, mostly because it's the current guest room and I don't want to repaint the whole thing.
His room is a grey-khaki color. Kind of a funny story, we'd bought our house 3 weeks before I found out I was pregnant, and that was the ONLY room we'd painted so far. DH absolutely HATES painting, so he said over and over that he hoped we had a boy so that he didn't have to paint that room again!! Here's a pic...it's a *subtle* circus theme (painting I did, fabric for bedskirt):
DS's room is painted the same aqua blue color that's in his bedding:
We did the far wall (it's the first one you see when walking into the room and has his window) dark brown and the other 3 are light/bright blue. Here's a pic but the lighting isn't that great. We stayed away from themes and his bedding is blues and browns circles and stripes.
