New toyroom

Recently Bruce and I decided that we want to take back our dinning room, and all the gifts the boys got for Christmas confirmed our thoughts. There were toys strewn everywhere and of course they never want to pick them up so I am constantly stepping/kicking/tripping over them. Bruce tried to convince the older two boys to move upstairs, but I thought that we should start the process slowly by just moving the toy room upstairs.

We cleaned out the bigger bedroom by moving all the boxes into the attic off of the big bedroom. It is a big attic storage space as I bet have twenty-thirty tubs of boys clothes stored in there, a full size headboard, Christmas decorations, and lots of baby equipment with room to spare. I swept the floor, mopped it and laid down a piece of scrap carpet that we found in the attic storage room. The carpet is maybe 6'x12', and it has a few stains, but it more than serves the purpose. They boys can use it as a field, it muffles the sound they make, and it will keep the room warmer.

Nathan was excited to move his toys upstairs and "organize" everything. He did try to convince me, Bruce or Darren to go up with him once it got dark although all the lights were on. We will see how he does, but that comment makes me glad that we did not move his bedroom upstairs.
