We have been busy getting the house ready (story of our lives lately). It takes quite a while when it's just the two of us - and the Adams - and throw Justin's "helping" in the mix and it takes a long time to accomplish even simple tasks! Plus the whole cooking, cleaning (a little) and lawncare still has to be done. We are getting there though! Our new carpet got installed on Monday and we LOVE it! It's so nice!!! Justin's new bedroom furniture *should* be here tomorrow. We're hoping it is! He has still been sleeping in there on the matress/box springs on the floor but it would be so nice to just finish that room! All we have left to do is the baseboard and door trim and then the furniture/decor. Mason's room (Justin's old room) has the wall holes patched and we just have to paint over the patches and get that room put together. I found curtains at JCP on sale from $49.99 each to $14.99 each! Not exactly what I wanted, but for that price they are going to be perfect :) They are light blue and have a thermal backing for room darkening and preventing the cold/hot air transfer. I think we might get a closet organizer for Mason's closet like we did in J's new room too. It's nice and gives much more space. Right now it's just one shelf/bar across the top.
Ericka & Stephanie start coming to our house to watch Justin on Monday! Today is his last day at PALS. On one hand I was a little sad because we really have enjoyed PALS, but then realized that everything we loved about it is going to be coming to our own house! All of the fun projects, learning practices, etc. were made up by E&S and he still gets to do that! Plus he's still going to get to do TumbleBus (gymnastics class on a bus that travels around to the different daycares) at the daycare right down the road from our house! Ms. Lori said that is not a problem to bring Justin and Lauren to that one :)
Okay - this is getting long again. Maybe I need to post more often so the posts are not novels!
Here are a few pictures from the last week.
The new and improved toy room! For most people these pics won't mean much, but if you had seen the room before I think you'll agree this is a HUGE improvement!
We took the burgandy curtains that used to be in the living room and put them in here. I think it turned out great!
Last Saturday Justin had a birthday party to go to for his friend Sydney. Here he is hitting the pinata - he loved it!
Justin, Lauren and Kierra - they loved this swing. It was 90+ degrees though and not many shady places, so I would have loved it too!

I am so behind on posts. First, I LOVE the name Mason and the bathroom looks amazing. What a difference. Although, I hope you framed a piece of that wallpaper:)
The toy room also looks great. I don't really know what it looked like before...lol, but I love organization and it looks organized.
Have a great 4th!!!
that toy room looks twice as big now!! nice work!!
I would love to have a toy room that finished! Our toy room is the basement, which is still unfinished. Every time we go to start it, it seems like something else comes up.
