thanks for giving us a window into your world.

Thanks, AD.

Roy:

Ennarath: Glad you enjoyed it. It took several tries for me to figure out how to post a slideshow with the new JU set up!

ASaxyGirl: Thanks! It's not perfect, but I'm pretty happy with it, and she has a blast in there!

The big gun was Orian's idea (and he is a scaredy cat!). The first couple of times it wasn't forceful enough to pull the tooth out. I headed up the stairs to get a more powerful gun (LOL), and before I could make it up the stairs Xavier threw the nerf bullet attached to Orian's tooth as hard as it could. THAT worked!

LW: Thanks. Still sooo much work to do, but it's shaping up. We have our new carpet in and I am HAPPY!

I remember you saying that it was a little bit of a fixer upper. Hope the house continues to be filled with many wonderful memories.

How's the toddler bed working out with Izzy???

I have all the parts to make our conversion but I'm not sure I trust them to roam free yet. I have a sneaking suspicion that PJ will be making some sort of parkour style assault on the book shelf if he can get out of his bed.

Because you love pictures and I haven't updated in a while ...

Sometimes animals escape, but that doesn't mean you can't still steep with them.

That's awesome JJ.

AD: Thanks. Even though it was expensive, I think replacing all the carpet was the single best thing we could do.

JJ: Awww, what an adorable pic! haha. I love it! How is toddlerhood with three?

Isabella actually does NOT sleep in her bed! LOL. She still co-sleeps and has very little interest in her bed beyond putting her babies in it! haha.

I love the pictures....

Wow, you weren't kidding, the curtains are too short...that's one tall room.  Your mom can fix it when she visits, at least now the window is covered. 

Izzy's room is gorgeous.  What a lucky little girl. 

It's so creative.

Everything looks great.  I love the color of your bedroom...

You have style Tex.

How is toddlerhood with three?

I'll let you know when I wake up. They are wearing me out. They are good sleepers but it seems like we go through one week out of the month that we have problems. They usually go down with no more than a whinper at about 7 pm and don't wake up until 6-7 am. On a bad week though we usually have one or two that don't want to sleep and I can't make them stay in the room and CIO.

I actually think I am going to work on them today. I have some old curtains that are a nice complementary green I'm going to use to lengthen them. We'll see how it goes. Having those curtains up make such a difference in how the room looks!

Thanks so much! I appreciate it.

BFD: Thanks!

JJ: LOL. I can't even imagine! It sounds so fun and so exhausting. Do they play well together?

Isabella is a pretty good sleeper (no specific schedule, she generally sleeps when we sleep). When one is up, does s/he keep her/his siblings up?

They generally play well together. The girls almost always play well together but PJ likes to do his own thing. Everthing that is empty needs stuff put in it and everything with stuff in it needs to be emptied. That is his job. If the girls interfear with his job he gets angry.

They sleep. If someone is crying when we go back to tuck them in again, we try to get them out quick. Other times someone could be in the room screaming bloody murder and the other two will be sound asleep. The only time it is really a problem is when we tuck them in. If Chloe wakes up, she has learned that if she wants to stay in the bed with us longer she has to be still. The other two still think our bed is a jungle gym.

I'm thinking of putting in one of those half doors when we go to todler beds. I'm worried that PJ is going to start to be a problem in his crib. Right now he can put his hands on the top of the desk and do a chin up to see what's on top. He has to pull himself almost a foot up to get his chin over the top. He is going to figure out how to get out of his crib soon. That kid is destined to be a parkour champ.
