The Status of the Rooms

Camden's Room
Camden's room started out an army green color. When Katie was out of town we got it painted light purple. Still haven't gotten anything on her walls yet, but that will come...Today we found a rug at Target that has all these pastel colors in it. Perfect! It really pulls the room together...(and covers a few unsightly stains on opposite sides of the room). So here's what it looks like now:


Katie's Room
Katie's room colors were good to start with...light khaki on the bottom and a light blue/periwinkle (in the right light) on top. She wants to keep them (fine with us!) Now I know my Mom and Dad are chuckling as they read this, because I know that I was never good at picking things up when I was young. So I guess this is payback, and you know what they say about that...

Every time I turn around, she's got something else out and spread all over the floor! Like a tornado hit it! And, I'm going to qualify this picture with the fact that it was taken after we filled 2 Extra-Large Rubbermaid tubs full of toys to go to the playroom (which already has tons and tons of toys all by itself).

In this picture, she had just found the Pooh clock for her room, and taken it out of the box and out of the 2 pieces of Styrofoam around it. Now, I would just set the Styrofoam aside and put the clock somewhere. But that's not how Katie's mind works. She sees the one piece, turns it on its side, and thinks it would be a perfect couch for her doll. So then, she gets every stool, box, or bench type thing in her room and finds a doll or stuffed animal to sit on it, because obviously, they are having a sleepover and watching a scary movie tonight!
