First week of Summer Movie Time

I want to make the first week of summer fun since Olivia will have 6 weeks of summer school and Alexis gets 3 weeks of Summer Academy.

 

So today, the girls all got their hair cut and we went to see a movie.

 

 

We saw Maleficent and the kids and I LOVED it!!

 

Thanks for peeking in on us.

First week of summer Swimming

We are going to have so much fun this first week of summer. Today we enjoyed Grandmas pool!

Thanks for visiting!

Teddy's Bedroom

Well of course Teddy also would like his room shared as well. For a few months Alexis bunked up with him. And now that her bedroom is finished he wants to show off his.

Standing in the doorway, we can see his Jr. Loft bed, he will eventually get a higher loft bed, this one will do just fine for the next few years. He has a nice seating area for reading. And bright green walls, a color his dad and him chose last summer.

I like an open closet, all of my kids rooms have no closet doors.

 

Off to the left of his bed is his desk. He LOVES to draw and write, this desk fits perfect in his small space. He found it at the local thrift store, sat in it and said "please Mommy?". How can I say no to those adorable brown eyes?

 

We are going to add a trophy shelf to the wall and that green and yellow thing with the pegs. I also have a few other ideas for updating his room. My plan is to get updating done when Teddy and his sisters go to Kindergarten this Fall.

 

I remember all too well when it was full of toddler beds and when it was the nursery.

Samantha and Bridgette's bedroom

Even though the room still needs some work and will get an update when the girls head off to Kindergarten this Fall, they wanted their room shared as well.

Here is a view of their little seating area. Both girls love to sit in those chairs and read books. They are very excited to be going to Kindergarten in the Fall.

My plan is to have a bunk bed for the girls by this Fall sometime. Not having to pull Bridgette's bed out for her to sleep on every night will be a relief.

I am also hoping to get 2 dressers that will fit side by side in the space where Samantha's dresser is. (The dresser with the hutch) They will each need to be less than 36" wide and hopefully not more than about 40" tall. I will look at garage sales and the local thrift store for those.

 

That door behind Bridgette's dresser, is the new entry into our attic. Eventually it will be an extended area added for play to Samantha and Bridgette's bedroom. Hopefully it will temporarily serve as storage space until our next remodel project is finished. It does need its frame put on and a door knob that locks with a key. It is not a safe area for play yet!!

 

And here is a look in from the doorway.

 

Well hopefully this Fall I will post the new updated pictures, once it is redone.

 

Thanks for checking in on us.
