It’s Sunday night. We’ve relaxed this weekend, now the kids are bathing and getting ready for a new week.

With school started, I am trying to use my time wisely and have decided to work on a room each week. To try to control the clutter and keep things clean(er) and just keep the house up. It’s far too daunting to just try to do everything all at once. So, this is the method that I’m trying out. This week, I decided it would be the boys’ room. Honestly, the reason I picked their room is the fact that I bought some new vinyl clings and wanted to be able to showcase them once they were up. And, there’s no way I was taking a photo of their room last week! I’m not 100% happy with the way that it looks now. And I didn’t get through all of their clothes as far as weeding out those that are too small, but I did make progress. And I still wanted to show of those clings.

So, here’s a look at my sons’ room today…

The baseball figures are new.. This is the wall on your left as you walk into the room.

 

This is the boys' bed. We've had it for a few years, but people always want to know what triple bunk beds look like--here are ours.

Isn't this a great quote? It's on the wall between the bed & the closet.

 

Another angle of the quote...

 

The view from the far side of the room.. just to put this in perspective.

 

I was (am) pleased with how it turned out. I am hoping that the new baseball decor will take them from their young ages now into pre-teen, teen years. And the great thing about the vinyl is that it can come down very easily if/when they’re tried of it. I think I was able to change the look of the room without spending much money and none of it is hard to change out. I think the boys like it, too, but they haven’t really said anything.

    HI!
    I received a comment about guest posting on our blog, and which topics we were looking for. As far as topics go, our blog is loosely based on family, faith, and creativity. I think you mentioned that you are an adopting family, that’s awesome! I think our readers would love to hear about your decision to adopt…
    Or talk about your toes.
    I”m not sure it really matters. As long as you’re interesting, people will read it ๐Ÿ™‚
    Good to meet you, and I’m excited to read a little more about you and your family ๐Ÿ™‚
