The after effects of Hurricane Olivia....

Today, we worked on the playroom. While I was pregnant, my wonderful husband and brother helped Olivia to clean her playroom. However, the organization that used to be present was thrown out the door and stuff was picked up and thrown wherever. Today, we cleaned, organized, fought, started baby proofing, cleaned laundry, watched the playoffs and cleaned the playroom some more.
The "before" pictures...

After I took these pics, I proceeded to dump everything out of the bins and containers onto the floor. Here are our "progress" pics...Next, we moved the bins and Olivia's art table up to her room so that anything that is not for Mia will be in Olivia's room. Now....here are the after pics......duh, duh, duuuuuhhhhh.....For those of you that have noticed that Olivia has decorated the walls herself....you're right. We have not stifled her creativity. However, the plan is to paint the walls, so this is not a permanent solution. For those of you who think your houses are dirty, take a look at Olivia's toy room and feel better about your own house.

  1. I love that you let her draw on the walls in that room. I read that Anne Rice was allowed to do this as a child.
