The Long Haul

The last week and a half, I have had to dedicate to my poor little boy who has had a terrible time teething. He has been whiny and clingy. His normal, healthy appetite has been playing peek-a-boo. I'm afraid that I haven't accomplished much in the last two weeks.

Over the last 3 days, I did get some time to work on the toy sort. I thought it was going to take forever, a long haul. But I managed to pull it together. We decided to use the bonus room or loft area as our tv room/play area. I wasn't sure how I'd set up the space at first, but I like how it is turning out. My large cube bookcase has turned into the toy station. Everything fit well with the addition of a toy sorter for the smaller items like blocks and legos. A couple of bins are holding the stuffed animals and now I'm just trying to figure out how to organize the games and puzzles. The tall book shelves I had orignally purchased for my bedroom last year are now at the top of the staircase.

We also managed to complete 97% of the final details in the kids rooms. I know, I need to hurry & post pictures. I am hoping to complete tomorrow -pending baby's mood. Wish me luck!

About Me

My photo
I am a 30-something year old mother of three. My eldest is about to complete his first year of school...Kindergarten! I thought that was going to be the most difficult challenge this year. I was wrong. I am also mom to Two in Diapers (hence the name of this blog). Balancing life is a struggle, and most often, I have had to put many of my passions on hold. My husband is an angel, and if it weren't for him (he being who he is), I don't know how I would survive. Little by little, I am trying to put everything back in order. The last 24 months have been very rocky. It started with my baby sister being diagnosed with cancer, shortly followed by my father's death. Over the months, we have been slammed time after time by devastating news, but we are surviving as a family. I hope you will join me as I try to piece the story together, both past and present.
