Big Girl Bed... and more

Monday, Abuela, Mylo, Milli and I took off to IKEA to get Milli's new bedroom stuff. It was, of course very fun. We got her a big girl bed, mattress, mattress pad, sheets, pillows, duvet and a very bright duvet cover and some wall decorations. That night we put it all together and moved her old bed (crib) to what will soon be "The Boys Room". (I still need to move her name down a bit... its too high where it is right now). She has done SOOO well in her big girl bed and she loves it. She loves the bed time routine and naps have still been wonderful. She just loves her bed... yay for us!

Wednesday, Maricela and I spent the better part of our day organizing ALL of the girl clothes we have in this house. We took EVERYTHING out of Milli's very crowded closet and re-organized EVERYTHING. There is no way I would have accomplished so much without her. The kids watched themselves and were pretty good. It feels so SO good to be this organized. I can't wait to finish the boys room now... next week :)

Dave and his "helper" putting the new bed together. Poor Mylo has a huuuuge mess in his room right now as things are slowly getting to were they should be. Monday, I also got a dresser for the boys that fits PERFECTLY in their closet. Pictures will soon follow once that is all done.

Leah was not left out of the adventure of this past crazy Monday. She wanted new bedding (not really new just a different one). I did get her new curtains that will match whatever is on her bed. I think that she took this picture since there is a bear out of place and I would have made sure everything was in its place before taking this picture :)

It feels REALLY nice to get organized and feel like this house is still ok for now...

Looks good man.
That's so good of Maricela.
What a great mate.
I'm glad Milli is liking her bed. Always a plus.

Looks great! You make me want to organize more. My closets are only semi-ready. One thing at a time, I suppose. Painting threw me off big-time.

organizing closets always ends up being a bigger job than I anticipate but it always feels great at the end to feel that everything is in it's place. Everything looks great and it tickled me to spot the blaket a crocheted for Milli.

It looks wonderful. Nice work, well worth the trip to IKEA. Maybe I need to have Maricela over to help organize my space!

It always feels good to get some organizing done--especially when it is preparation for such a special event!
