Once upon a time....

We had a super cool guest room that looked like this. No it's not everyone's taste but it is original and soooo Robyn. Then came a long wait for our little girl and with it alot of stress induced shopping for toys that she just had to have. Then our little girl came home and we were showered with gifts for her. Room at our house was tight but we were getting by. Then came Avery's first Christmas and once again we received an abundance of toys for her. Then we were gifted with a super cool bed that we knew Avery would love.

All of these circumstances led to today's project: converting our guest room to a Toy/Play room for Avery.

We have spent the last couple of days cleaning everything out and then today we put up the bed and moved the toys in!! Avery was in heaven. Even though it will be a couple of years before she actually sleeps in the bed she has already made good use of the slide. She was immediately up and down it repeatedly. At first she kept her feet on the slide and kind of walked her way down but then she really got going and is now fearless in her slide endeavors. Nothing sounds sweeter that to hear her laughing as she flies down the slide.


Trying to sort out all these toys!

Avery's new bed and playroom!!

Toys, toys, and more toys!

Have I mentioned I have a slight obsession with Little People? This is not the entire collection we possess. And no I don't think they will look every look like this again after Avery hits this room tomorrow but it made for a good photo op!

We wound up waiting until Avery was in bed before we started sorting out toys so I know she will be very excited tomorrow when she enters her new playroom! And best of all I have already told Paul I have not intention of attempting to keep this room straightened.

Happy Saturday!!!
