So Much To Do!!!!!

I am surprised by how cool, calm and collected I have been regarding getting everything ready for Froggy /Baby G. As majority of you know I am quite the planner….but somehow with everything that has been going on I have allowed us to get to almost double digits with nothing completed. I have quite the list of things that need to be done before October 10th. I sent the list to Tre for him to see what I was thinking and in true Tre fashion he laughed at me. Well probably not at me more or less at the list. Nonetheless somehow this week I came home feeling inspired and got all the stuff on the 1st level checked off. Tre must have been surprised at my motivation, because Tre and even Lyric pitched in. The second floor pretty much has been completed since we moved in, besides organizing the closet.

Which leads me to the 3rd floor. You would think since we just moved in less than a year ago we would be settled. Well maybe you wouldn’t think that but I would. And although we are settled we have some major issues to work out. Such as storage, Tre was VERY insistent he did not want any furniture in our bedroom, he wanted lots of space. At the time I was so distracted with paint colors and decorating, I didn’t object. But now since we are using clothes baskets as drawers, I think we have both come to the conclusion we have to have somewhere to put our folded clothes.

But our biggest most challenging item on our to do list involves Pumpkin and Froggy’s room. If I had my way I would have kept Lyric’s big boy room and moved Froggy into the guest room. But since I was out voted, the kids will be sharing a room, which means I have to come up with a theme old enough for Pumpkin yet baby enough for Froggy. That probably does not sound to hard but factor in the unknown gender and its quite complicated.

However I am pleased to say after much research, 3 gallons of paint, 1 coat of primer and a few tears. I think I have finally come up with a room that everyone will love. Although Tre is not thrilled with the idea of painting again (he just painted last week), he surprisingly is not opposed to it either. Maybe he is taking that saying “Happy Wife = Happy Life” to heart.
