Showing off her big girl bed for the camera!
The playhouse that Santa brought that is way too big, but Lucy refuses to let us put outside.
Oh yeah, the Dora bedding that is making my sisters cringe right now!!!
Our new shelf with TOY ORGANIZATION!!!! WOO HOO!!!! I feel like Kate Goslin on Jon & Kate Plus 8 right now with my pickiness of the toy room. Hey, at least I didn't take pics of the toys in each container and use them to label each one. Now that's a little bit of a control freak!
I also spent some of my time off working on Lucy's playroom. Since we moved into our house last summer, her playroom has just been a toy catch-all, and it has stayed a mess. I knew it was time to do something about it when she couldn't get to the other side of the room because there were so many baby dolls, stuffed animals, riding toys, and "doo-dads" (as my mom calls them) in the way. So we ventured out to Lowe's for some shelving solutions, and to Wal-Mart for the much needed toddler bed. (YES, to all you better-than-me parents out there, she has been sleeping with us for nearly two years now!!!) So you can see our solution to all these problems in the pictures above. We turned the playroom into a playroom/bedroom. Her real bedroom is upstairs, and we are so not ready for that yet, since our bedroom is downstairs. So we put the toddler bed in the play room since it's just around the corner from ours. And let me warn you all (especially my sisters) that YES, we do have Dora the Explorer bedding, but it was just a way to get her excited to sleep in her toddler bed. She absolutely loves the terribly tacky sheets, pillow and comforter that I swore I would never buy. Little did I know that all it would take to get her in it was to tell her that Lizzy and Stella slept in their own "big girl beds". She refuses to sleep with us now (even when I ask, because I'm having a little night-time seperation anxiety).

And please pardon the horrible brown panelling walls from the 70's. I painted the rest of my house when we moved in, but I just haven't tackled the playroom yet. By the way all the other brown panelling you may see in any other pictures on this website are those from Ryan's grandmother's house who seems to think their perfectly lovely. Oh well!
