Switch-A-Roo

This weekend I got a little crazy and decided to mix things up a little bit around the house.  Mike was gone for most of the weekend doing a home show so he couldn't object.  On Friday I switched our bedroom with the playroom.  It was a lot of hard pushing and shoving and carrying, but worth it.  Our bedroom is now tiny but the kids LOVE all the space they have to actually play in the playroom.  Then on Saturday we switched the girls' around.  Celeste won't stay in her crib so we put her in a bed.  It seemed to be the right time to move her into Lilah's room and have Madeline move into Anna Elise's room.  Hopefully having the two school girls and the two little girls together will help everyone get more sleep!

We also had fun watching the third Ice Age movie, Calvin was finally the 'Star Student of the Week' in his class and I had lunch with him one day, and Mike is still working 2 jobs.

Calvin made an 'airplane/submarine'.  The kids played in/on it all afternoon.  It was fun to watch and listen to them.

Our family spotlight this week is Lilah Bean.  Lilah has been really enjoying church and going to playgroup.  She is very social.  She has also been a big help lately, she tries to help me with potty training, she likes to help Celeste and has been so good about sharing her room with Celeste.  We went to check on them before going to bed on their first night together.  Celeste had climbed up the ladder and fallen asleep next to Lilah.  Lilah later told us that she covered her up with her blanket and told her stories until she fell asleep.  So sweet
(but a little scary that our 22 month old climbs up to the top bunk).

So sweet and yes, a little scary. At least you didn't have to watch.
