Change is a coming...slowly but surely. The kids are growing up doing more things big kids do. In fact Boopy found that she grew this summer and can officially pedal her big girl bike all herself now that her feet fully reach the pedals! Big Boy has gotten to where he can almost get himself completely dressed on his own. He sometimes struggles with his shirt and occasionally gets the underwear on backwards, but hey at least he tries! As we prepare for them both to be bigger kids and less and less the toddlers and babies that they were, we been working towards the great room switch project. Our upstairs is still in a complete state of disaster, but slowly and surely looking more and more like a nice livable space.
This weekend, we finished the trim paint half of our bedroom, enough to move in the furniture (3 bookcases and a futon) from the guest room. There are still boxes of stuff to go through and books to organize but it's really getting there and looking quite nice. I took "in progress" pictures but haven't loaded to the computer just yet. What I do have though, is Big Boy's new room/bed as of last night. We managed to get the new bed, which is a twin/twin loft bed put up as well as the air hockey table he was gifted from Big Anne's son, Russell. The bed is one bed up top, one trundle in the bottom drawer, a pull out desk, built in dresser and cool storage/hideout in the back. I have better "in progress" pics of his bed with my room pics that I'll load this week. Below is the quick cell phone picture I took to share of the kids already enjoying the bed.
Next weekend we'll work on moving Big Boy's stuff over to his room and maybe getting Boopy's new bed up in their current room. We still need to get paint for Boopy's room which may have to wait until the following weekend depending on time and money. Whew....one little idea and we've got a project that may just take us the rest of the year.
Hope you all had as productive a weekend as we did!
