3 little updates

When we found out Clark was coming we first had to move Everett into what was the spare bedroom:

 

The carpet was already out of this room but we had to remove the wallpaper, paint, and decorate. We have yet to add the crown molding but here is a peak at his room now:

 

Then we removed the wallpaper from the room Everett was sleeping in (this is the room with the old carpet and previous owners furniture. I don't have a pic of it when Ev was sleeping in there):

 

 We painted and decorated. We also still have to add the crown in this room but here is another  wallpaper free room.

 

Another little update was some toy organization. I know this doesn't look super organized but its a huge improvement from before when it was just piles of milk crates in the corner.  We talked about doing some custom built-ins but Steve and I couldn't agree on how the room would end up being long term (someday we want to add windows and reface the fireplace...SOMEDAY!) So we ended up with some Target storage shelves and fabric bins. It works great and wasn't so expensive that we will feel guilty eventually replacing it. Some of the bins have picture labels on them so Everett can put things away on his own. He's been doing a great job with it too!

 

Next time I'll fill you in on the 30 foot trench we had dug through the middle of our house just days before Clark was born. THAT was TONS of fun!
