Productive Times
We had a good weekend! I was able to get the girls room decorated with the prerequisite princess garb. I think they would probably like Dora or Diego but Mommy is doing it so there.
I also added a plastic butterfly cover to our dining room chairs which were originally upholstered in white. There was no way we could eat in that room without creating a mess. Jim and Olivia will be excited to use that room. Ava and I are whats the big deal?! I felt like my own trading spaces by doing those chairs. I had to take the cushion off and use a staple gun to put the plastic on. It made me want to staple other things! Muhahaha! And no before you ask I wont staple the kids to the wall. I'm tempted but I wont.
One of Ava's new favorite words is broken or as she says it bokin. I put a border around the girls room but didn't have enough to finish. There is also some coat hooks on the wall and I wasn't sure what to do about the border so the first night I just stopped there and added one more piece on the other side. During prayer time that night Ava kept saying "It's bokin mama, it's bokin." She also said this while I was taking the cushion chairs off too!
This weekend I offered our moving boxes on freecycle and someone picked those up as well as taking our baby items. You can actually walk around in our garage! Woohoo! Progress! I have about 5 to 6 boxes to take to Goodwill or somewhere!
My parents (Hi Mom and Dad) are coming next week so thats a good goal to get stuff doen this week! My in-laws (Hi Ray and Alice) are coming the next week so yet another good goal!
As you can see below I have even planned out the meals for the week so I feel like my life is getting somewhat organized and I keep the washing maching going!
How was your weekend?
very impressive. I really like the menu thing. Too bad Jeff isn't home in the evenings to eat. Caitlyn and I often make due on left overs or mac n cheese and veggies of course!
ReplyDeleteI am also impressed. I have actually not watched trading spaces in a while but Vern and Frank were my fave designers. I am sure they could get good ideas from u. I spent the weekend vacationing in San Antonio w/ my parents. We had fun.
ReplyDeleteKeep up your organizational skills. I am in awe!!!!!!
