Toddler Room

We set up the girls' toddler room on Sunday and I have been obsessing about it/working on it ever since. Please ignore the wall decorations for now. I don't like the way I have them yet, and am rearranging them constantly. It takes me a while to get it just the way I like it, and I am totally stumped on this one. :) I have some a lot of things I can use, but am not sure how to arrange them or which items to use and leave off yet. I will post pictures of the final arrangement when I get it done. We are also planning to paint the walls a very pale pink color by this summer. Our colors are mostly dark chocolate brown, pale pink, yellow, and a pretty green. Their quilts also have some bright blue and orange in them.

I am also re-doing their closet and am stumped on that one too. I currently have 4 large plastic tubs in my room full of baby clothes and shoes that I hate to part with in case we have another girl (or two!!!) So I need to get things up in the attic and better organized. I made a LONG to-do list last night. If I don't make lists these days, things get forgotten! I guess I am getting old now or something. :)

Until then, here is their room as it looks today...




It is definitely a work in progress. Although I am letting it remind me how truly blessed we are...so blessed to have furniture, a house, and the ability to decorate a house the way we like it. How many people in the world don't even have a home? We are trying to teach the girls to be super thankful every day for the things God has given them!

Missing Baby

Where is Lexi? This is what I saw this morning after getting Lilly up....Look carefully at the the large, red feet on the right side of the picture before scrolling down.



We don't think she was there all night, but I managed to take these pictures while she snored away, only to wait another 20 minutes for her to wake up! She loves her Elmo and little sheep!
