What We've Been Doing...

So thanks to my very diligent and perfectionist husband (spoken as major compliments here!) we have rearranged our house to make use of our space. I figured we have another baby coming and Lilly's starting preschool so we may as well get organized and prepared. Andy was so gracious to take his 3 day holiday weekend to devote to my project. He has not rested in a year due to his doctorate and full-time (insane) job and I know he would have enjoyed lying around all weekend. Instead he was up until 2a.m. putting together furniture and organizing. Thanks Andy!

We moved our basement furniture upstairs to our more formal living room that we NEVER used. It's very cozy and comfortable and we've spent the whole weekend in there.



We moved our former living room furniture down to the basement (not pictured here) and bought some storage shelves to turn the basement into a playroom. It is nowhere near complete - I have a lot of work to do down there but I have a vision and that's what's important! I intend on putting all Lilly's toys in baskets, labeling them with words and pictures, getting frames to frame her preschool artwork, setting up a craft table, etc. It will take time but I have plenty of that. Here are the storage units that we bought (and Andy assembled until 2a.m.).

Hopefully when it's all finished we'll be organized, be using our space more wisely, and Lilly will have a nice space to go and play with friends and toys.
